OPINION| In a shocking turn of events, Thomas Matthew Crooks, the man who attempted to assassinate former President Donald Trump, managed to climb onto the roof of a nearby building undetected. However, a closer look at the timeline of events raises serious questions about how he managed to get there.
The incident took place on July 13, 2024, at a Trump rally in Butler, Pennsylvania. Crooks, a 20-year-old from Bethel Park, Pennsylvania, managed to climb onto the roof of a nearby building and open fire on the former president. Trump was shot in the arm but is expected to make a full recovery.
According to sources, Crooks was first identified as a person of interest at 5:10 p.m. on the day of the rally. He was then spotted with a rangefinder at 5:30 p.m. and was finally spotted on the roof by Secret Service snipers at 5:52 p.m. However, it wasn’t until 6:02 p.m. that Trump took the stage.
This timeline raises serious questions about how Crooks managed to get onto the roof undetected. How did he manage to evade the Secret Service for nearly an hour? And how did he manage to climb onto the roof without being noticed?
Some Trump supporters believe that there may have been a security lapse that allowed Crooks to get onto the roof. They argue that the Secret Service should have been more vigilant in protecting the former president.
Others believe that Crooks may have had outside help or training in evading detection. They point to the fact that he had no strong partisan political views and had searched images of public figures including Trump and Biden as well as FBI director Christopher Wray and Attorney General Merrick Garland.
The incident has also reignited the debate about the safety of political rallies and events. If a lone actor like Crooks can get so close to a former president with a gun, what does that say about the state of national security?
As the investigation continues, many Trump supporters are left wondering what other secrets the Biden administration is hiding. They believe that this incident is just the tip of the iceberg and that there are many more unanswered questions about the safety of political figures.
In the end, the attempted assassination of Donald Trump has only served to further erode the trust that many Trump supporters have in the Biden administration. They see this incident as yet another example of the Biden regime’s incompetence and lack of respect for the American people.
As the 2024 presidential election approaches, the incident is likely to become a major issue on the campaign trail. Trump supporters will use it as evidence of the Biden regime’s failure to protect the American people, while Biden supporters will try to downplay the incident and shift the blame to other factors.
The incident has also raised questions about the future of political rallies and events. Will they become more heavily fortified, with increased security measures and a larger police presence? Or will they become less frequent and more subdued, as politicians and their supporters become more wary of potential threats?
One thing is certain: the attempted assassination of Donald Trump has left a lasting impact on the American political landscape. It has exposed the deep divisions in our society and the challenges that we face in ensuring the safety of our political leaders and the American people.
