Do you want us to run off a list of Trump hires. There'll be 4 groups.
Trump was afair big into nepotism (Ivanka and Jared Kushner) and appointing the most loyal toadies he could find to important posts regardless of merit, but once it's not "DEI" or "wokery" etc…all good in the hood!
When you read the operation northwoods documents,mk ultra,cia paying the dalai lama,governments spying on people,project sunshine etc the list goes on and on that it isn't surprising people go straight down the conspiracy route to explain things which is far worse now with the internet
new video people running away before the shooting https://www.foxnews.com/us/new-video-shows-assassination-attempt-trump-pennsylvania-rally
From the article: ""Turned out it really was him," he said. "So it's a video of him, we think leaving his vehicle. There was a gray Hyundai, looked like a Sonata, that was parked there … He wasn't carrying anything. He was just in his, you know, just his regular clothes. No backpack or anything. Just walking to the building. And then about two minutes after that, somebody else shot a video of him on that side of the building, through the fence.
How come one of them didnt shoot him? Good people with guns and all that…
Guns aren't allowed at rallies?
With respect to former President Trump, there's some question about whether or not it's a bullet or shrapnel that hit his ear," Wray responded to Chairman Jim Jordan, who asked him if the FBI had accounted for all of gunman Thomas Matthew Crooks' bullets at the scene, per ABC News and CBS News.

Why not? My Second Amendment right!
I've got some bad news, I'm afraid.
I have younger cousins whose parents describe as computer whizz kids, and I talk to them and they dont even have the basics. Being able to install tiktok and knowing their way around a tablet does not make one a whizz kid.
What sort of digital trail are you expecting? This is America we are talking about. I was in a Walmart in Maryland that sold shotguns, and there was a sign up saying "Purchase restricted to persons 16 years or older".
He used his dads AR-15. Went into a gunshop and bought 50 rounds, went into Home Depot and bought a ladder.
You dont even need a VPN when every browser comes with incognito mode.
Your are not much of a critical thinker are you.
Incognito mode doesn't hide the IP Address.
No, but if he used the Wifi in Starbucks, it would be StarBucks IP, not his home address.
But then theres the issue of hiding your MAC address which is hard coded to the wifi card. They'll know what exact device is being used. Starbucks know what the user is doing on their network. Cookies, serial number on the CPU. Then theres CCTV which can prove it was him in that Starbucks at that time.
Yes, thank you for telling a security engineer the minute details.
The thing is the FBI need to know which Starbucks, or indeed which wireless network was used. The CCTV may not help because you can use Starbucks Wifi while you are next door in Wendys.
…he had autism, some mass shooting events have been linked to the disorder, it would also be common for those with the disorder to be very proficient with technology…..
Considering the sheer amount of mass shootings in the US, practically every demographic is represented in the figures.
And my cousin has severe autism but is no more proficient with technology than anyone else his age.
Although I dont really know what point you are making.
They'll know or find out.
I remember the collective power of the security analysts, engineers and IT experts on Reddit couldn't figure jack about the Boston Bomber. The investigators will likely have most of this pieced together in the near future.
true enough, but again, some mass shootings have in fact been linked to the disorder, by experienced mental health professionals in the disorder
i have autism myself, and spend a lot of time around others with the disorder, some of us are extremely proficient with tech, some far superior than myself, im okay with tech myself
Looks like the bullet grazed Trumps ear in 2 places as it passed his head. You could not of got much closer to certain death than that.
did it even touch him, or was it the shockwave that done the damage?
That article is dated 17th july.
The director of the FBI subsequent to that before committee could not confirm if it was a bullet or shrapnel.
With all due respect to Snopes, that supersedes them.
Why go to a gun shop??

Just to clarify, 'shrapnel' in this case would be a fragment of a bullet that has broken off?
He didn't specify if it was that or it hit say the podium and flung a piece of that off.
that’s assuming Starbucks keeps their cctv long enough a lot of locations won’t keep even a week. Dude could just pay cash to buy a Chromebook from Walmart.
So he spent the last few years online exclusively in a Wendys or a Starucks?
Anyway it would appear they have a lot of his online activity as per the FBI yesterday.
They have his online activity, except the rumored stuff they cant find, or that didnt exist to begin with.
The FBI is unsure if Trump was struck by a bullet or not

Sure enough the only claim we have of his medical condition comes from Ronny “Candyman” Jackson who says he allegedly has a “2 centimeter” wound in his ear.
Yet he was struck, allegedly, by a 5.56 mm diameter bullet. Yes the AR-15 was chambered for 5.56.
