[Blue Owl]

1. God that screen still looks like it was made for TV

[BlueKota]

2. Is that blood on his face?

[Rhiannon12866]

4. Yes, something hit his ear

[BlueKota]

8. Maybe something ricocheted

[Uncle Joe]

48. He had that side of his face turned away from the camera in the seconds before he ducked

and I didn't see any blood until he came up.

So I'm wondering if he injured himself while ducking?

[marble falls]

3. Sure hope it was some MAGA who dropped his piece.

[Silent Type]

6. Was thinking same. trump will milk this thing all next week.

[rogerballard]

32. More like November...

this will be non stop for months I think, hopefully I am wrong.

[CanonRay]

39. He kept pumping his fist

Really makes me think it was staged.

[BlueKota]

11. He will try to blame President Biden I am sure.

[marble falls]

27. I guess he got the "b" squad of SS guards. They'll be down graded to RFK Jr.

[Irish_Dem]

5. So odd, no one screaming and running as would be expected if there is a gunman.

[Rhiannon12866]

9. I know, the crowd is hanging around, no one panicked

[BlueKota]

13. It is odd

I wouldn't put it past them to stage something to blame Democrats.

[Irish_Dem]

14. Maybe came from a sniper at a distance.

Or it was staged.

[BlueKota]

15. My guess is staged

[Irish_Dem]

19. Toss up right now.

My first thought was a staged event.
Trump is a coward, he would not stand up defiantly like that.

Or could be a sniper.

50/50

[BlueKota]

36. Sniper is possible I guess.

Maybe someone with specialized training didn't like that he got fellow agents killed by leaking classified materials. I know I wouldn't want those people ticked at me.

[Irish_Dem]

40. Or a drone?

Yes Trump got CIA assets killed or disappeared.

[Crowman2009]

43. Probably a hired thug from one of the many minions (i.e. Bannon, Giuliani) that Trump has f***ed over in the past.

[Irish_Dem]

44. The list of suspects is a mile long.

How many people has Trump hurt over the years.

[relayerbob]

17. There was plenty of screaming and panic on the c-span feed

[Irish_Dem]

21. Ok that is more normal.

[orange jar]

20. They're showing the video on CNN right now.

There's definitely hysterical screaming.

[Irish_Dem]

22. Ok that is normal then.

[Hermit-The-Prog]

7. Prove it. The whole world knows that traitortrump lies.

[Rhiannon12866]

10. This is live news

[Hermit-The-Prog]

16. Doesn't mean it's not staged to get traitortrump sympathy and camera time.

[Rhiannon12866]

23. There was blood, though I take your point. The crowd hasn't left

[Hermit-The-Prog]

28. Hollyweird produces blood by the buckets. I don't trust traitortrump or the "news".

Show me medical reports from anti-trumpers. Show me ballistics reports. Where did shots come from? Where did they go?

[jimfields33]

33. Look. It's not staged. If it were, he'd be done for real.

He would not risk this. One inch more and he’d be dead from the shot in the head.

[Hermit-The-Prog]

41. Assumptions and assertions are neither evidence nor proof. You assume a shot.

[jimfields33]

47. Your right. I hope we get more info soon.

[spooky3]

12. Capehart and guests on MSNBC are emphasizing we don't know what

Happened. Don’t yet know if there were shots.

[Rhiannon12866]

18. Same here. Guest is Howard Dean who was the Democratic frontrunner so he also had Secret Service protection

So that's what he's talking about.

[Irish_Dem]

26. So it could be just a fall and he hit his head.

[Rhiannon12866]

29. He was standing and talking, grabbed his ear and ducked

[Irish_Dem]

37. Doesn't sound like a fall then.

[Warpy]

24. Yelling and fighting the SS every step of the way

as they tried to get him to put his head down while they muscled him off the stage.

I still think it was firecrackers. I can't find any video with the noises.

[BlueKota]

25. The guy standing next to him in the clip looks

pretty casual to me. The woman makes it look there is a still a threat, so why would the guy just be standing calmly?

[duncang]

30. I'm trying to figure out

If it was a gun shot that missed wouldn’t it have hit someone behind him?

Edit:
I just watched the clip. He was facing his right. I don’t know if it would have hit anyone else.

[waterwatcher123]

31. How come no one was hit behind him if it was , indeed, a bullet?

[doc03]

34. Someone on DU said they heard around10 shots. Even if only one shot how was it nobody

but TSF was hit?

[CanonRay]

35. Good God, USA chants?

Well what could be more appropriate at a shooting.

[Turbineguy]

38. ..

42. All those cameras...

Cameras, cameras, everywhere. Pointing multiple angles. Different zooms. Different networks.

And the security cameras. Extensive at an event like this.

They have it all. Then there are are personal cellphones.

There really won't be any unanswered questions very shortly.

There will be unreleased answers.

[Rhiannon12866]

45. "The area was locked down as a crime scene"

Are they going to interview that entire crowd?

[Crowman2009]

46. When you welcome gun humpers into your fold, eventually some idiots are going to start shooting them.

Either accidently or on purpose.

[Rhiannon12866]

49. They said there were magnetometers and people were checked for weapons

[Rhiannon12866]

50. Lester Holt just reported that one spectator killed, one injured, the shooter is dead
