The man, whose identity has not been released and who is reportedly in custody, was said to have showed up at Trump International Golf Club with an AK-47 rifle. While initial reports claimed the man fired upon the former president from a tree line, Fox News confirmed the suspect never got a shot off. Network correspondent Lucas Tomlinson reported: Fox News can now report that it was the Secret Service that fired the gunshots at the suspected gunman outside former President Trump’s golf club, Trump International in West Palm Beach, Florida. The Secret Service saw a man carrying an AK-47. The man with the AK-47 did not open fire. It was the Secret Service that opened fire. The man dropped the rifle, took off running, we now understand, based on local reports, that suspect is now in custody. We are awaiting a press conference from the Palm Beach County Sheriff’s Office as well as the Secret Service.
Was a real assassination attempt, had a scope, go pro, backpack filled with ceramic plates to stop bullets. Dem proxy chickened out and ran like the DEI hire he is. Secret Service agent (professional public servant) needs a reward for doing the job of protecting Trump.
Yep. I have to say too that if a shooter wants something handy nearby to stabilize his rifle while trying to make a shot, that being able to stick the barrel through a chain link fence and resting on that is VERY helpful. Meanwhile. I just saw that press conference where at the end the lead law enforcement guy went over the top congratulating everyone on what an outstanding job the entire team did. I don't know about that. Once again, looks like predictable areas of exposure went uncovered. There does seem to be someone who did an outstanding job indeed, but that was the quick thinking ENORMOUSLY helpful civilian who photographed the license plate of the shooter. OUTSTANDING. When the government clowns are done patting themselves on the back and trying to make themselves look good, they should at least give that civilian a gift certificate to Arby's or something.
And it would be the third of it actually was one today, so far only that young autistic English lad in 2016 seems fully legit. As Mr Bean as he was, at least he wasn't possibly working to help MAGA. 39 more to go if he hopes to take Hitler's record.
Trump is ridiculous playing golf, any hunter with a deer rifle and a ghillie suit would of had him. DEI hire hung two backpacks on the fence as a shield, standing out like a sore thumb. Who tipped off the idiot to Trumps position?
For once you are correct, a 338 Winchester XPR is a cheap but decent gun for that scenario. The AK has poor range. I blame Biden, shooters are too poor to afford proper weapons, a basic but respectable two grand Lapua is too steep for them.
