Trump Rally Gunman Was ‘Definitely Conservative,’ Classmate Recalls https://www.thedailybeast.com/trump...was-definitely-conservative-classmate-recalls A former classmate of the 20-year-old man who tried unsuccessfully to kill former President Donald Trump at a Pennsylvania rally on Saturday recalled him being staunchly to the right of the political spectrum. “He definitely was conservative,” Max R. Smith told The Philadelphia Inquirer of Thomas Crooks. “It makes me wonder why he would carry out an assassination attempt on the conservative candidate.” Smith shared an American history class with Crooks, and remembered a mock debate where their teacher made students stand on one side of the classroom or another to signal their allegiance. “The majority of the class were on the liberal side, but Tom, no matter what, always stood his ground on the conservative side,” Smith said. “That’s still the picture I have of him. Just standing alone on one side while the rest of the class was on the other.” Crooks died in the assassination attempt. Trump, who suffered a minor injury to the ear, was “fine” Sunday after being treated at a local medical facility, his campaign said. One audience member was killed and two others critically injured amid the gunfire. Read it at The Philadelphia Inquirer
In my opinion, there was a complete failure by local law enforcement and Secret Service considering many witnesses had spotted the shooter bear crawling on the rooftop with a rifle-like weapon. The witnesses then pointed this out to the nearby local law enforcement and Secret Service for 2 - 3 minutes and nothing was done until after the shooting started. https://www.cnn.com/2024/07/14/us/v...ms-he-saw-purported-shooter-on-nearby-rooftop Somebody should be fired. wrbtrader
