He very clearly repositioned his rifle after the first shot was fired.That sure looks like he waited until the shooter fired.
"Nine shots were heard, including three before Trump grabbed his ear."

trying for head shots on a VERY dynamic moving target vs center mass. Or maybe he was going center mass and was just that bad?I'm not sure I understand this comment.
I looked up the TR assassination attempt earlier myself. Glasses case and folded speech kept TR from having a fatal bullet wound.
I said this exact thing to my wife. WTF are they doing now while we're all focused on this...I wonder what the other hand is doing.
You haven't seen guys at the range shooting 25 yards and just getting it on paper?Its really kind of odd that they would miss at that range even if there was moderate wind. Any half assed shooter could keep it in a 10" circle at 200 yds.
These are YOUR people...Would you have been happy if someone actually shot Obama?
For sane people, this is no different.
I want him to lose the election…not his life.
Nothing good comes from this, even if it somehow turned out to be a Mark Chapman/John Lennon type thing.
Worst-case scenario is that this was an overt act of targeted political violence, but even the “best-case“ scenario is terrifying.
I loath Trump..but this evening I will be praying for him and our country.
beat me to itWelcome to INGO. You new here?

True, but I think it's safe to say put NOTHING past the democratic party...The NATO summit the other night gave pretty clear hints of trying to get ukraine into NATO, much more seriously.
Biden has failed beyond anyone's wildest expectations and the party is in shambles trying to get their story and agenda straight.
Other than that, I don't know. I'd say this looks like a pretty organic and predictable thing that happened.
I saw an interview of a woman who said trump was talking about some charts on immigration and had turned to talk about a chart to his right just before getting shot. She said if he had not turned his head it could have been very different.Its really kind of odd that they would miss at that range even if there was moderate wind. Any half assed shooter could keep it in a 10" circle at 200 yds.

I used to know a dude who built a target system for that sort of thing.I saw an interview of a woman who said trump was talking about some charts on immigration and had turned to talk about a chart to his right just before getting shot. She said if he had not turned his head it could have been very different.
The target can move as you fire and then you miss. That may have been the case here.
Not going to offend meGot a deceased shooter pict…
Might be over the line, not bad but etc…
