    The US flag lowering for the picture and journalists being ushered in to their designated photo position right after the shooting was super sus. If I poorly staged an assassination that would be how I would do it.

      Fake cut on his ear thing too. I have no idea if the shooting itself was fake, but everything else around it obviously was. If it wasn’t fake, the bullet missing might well make me believe in the devil. Live video of a bird landing on Sander’s podium in 2016 remains best evidence for god. Humans clearly closer to the former than the latter.

        A guy literally got shot to death behind trump. Just because the audience doesn’t have any survival instincts doesn’t mean it’s staged.

          “Staged” could mean:

          1. They planned to let the guy get a gun close then nab him without shooting, but fucked up.
          2. They planned to let a bad shot take a shot and then execute him.
          3. They had a patsy on the roof and a real shooter elsewhere, who planned to either miss (and succeeded) or hit (and fucked up).

          All of which would involve a real bullet actually killing someone, just not Trump.
