Please tell me they're not actually doing this, this time.
Please. This is the one fucking time that doing this is such a bad move that it's actually dangerous. That's only going to piss people off further.
Yes how original I'm sure your mommy and daddy are very proud of you for being the fifth person to make that joke.

It's not possible for any of us to comprehend the nature of God's plan. Better to suck it up and be humble than scream at clouds for the next 50 years.

No it is just an artifact of the light. Look at other photos during this collage and you see no hole.

Local news spoke to a former classmate of the shooter:
Source (Archive)Trump shooter Thomas Matthew Crooks was loner ‘relentlessly’ bullied in high school: classmate
The 20-year-old man who attempted to assassinate Donald Trump at a rally in Pennsylvania Saturday was described by former classmates as a bullied loner with a penchant for hunting outfits and video games.
Thomas Matthew Crooks was killed by the Secret Service on Saturday evening after he opened fire at the Butler Farm Show grounds, grazing Trump and killing another attendee.
Crooks – who graduated from Bethel Park High School in 2022 – was a loner who was “relentlessly” bullied, former classmate Jason Kohler told KDKA.

He was known for wearing “‘hunting’” outfits to class, Kohler added.
The classmate also provided the outlet with two photos of Crooks that were taken during his high school years – including one that showed the future would-be assassin sitting at a desk in a Bethel Park sweatshirt.
In the second photo, Crooks offered a thumbs up while another classmate – whose face was redacted – took a selfie on a school bus.
Crooks made a $15 donation to the liberal ActBlue political action committee on President Joe Biden’s Inauguration Day in 2021, the Intercept reported.
When he turned 18 the following September, however, he registered with the Republican Party, online state records showed.
“He didn’t seem like really weird or anything. I would have pegged him as a Republican,” one former classmate told The Post in the aftermath of the shooting on Saturday.

“He never outwardly spoke about his political views or how much he hated Trump or anything,” another Bethel Park High graduate, Sarah D’Angelo, told The Wall Street Journal Sunday morning.
Crooks had “a few friends” but “didn’t have a full friend group,” D’Angelo remembered, adding that she remembered him playing video games on his laptop during homeroom period at school.
Crooks did not appear in the 2022 Bethel Park High School yearbook, but video showed him walking across the stage to accept his diploma that spring.
He also received a $500 National Math and Science Initiative Star Award during his graduating year, TribLive reported.

Crooks was dressed in all gray Saturday evening when he scaled the roof of a manufacturing plant about 130 yards from the Butler rally site and opened fire with an AK-style rifle.
Former volunteer fire chief Corey Comperatore, 50, was killed, while Trump narrowly got away with a badly grazed ear.
Two other rally attendees were also critically wounded before Crooks was shot dead by the Secret Service.
The rifle Crooks used in the attempted assassination was purchased by his father, according to the Wall Street Journal.

Investigators later found explosive devices in Crooks’ car, which was parked not far from the grounds where the rally took place.
As of Sunday afternoon, the authorities had not shared a possible motive for the attack.
Crooks’ father, Matthew Crooks, declined to speak to CNN on Saturday night and said he needed to figure out “what the hell is going on.”

If they find his motive was right wing or a whiff of it they'll shout it from the rooftops.
EDIT: they are trying super hard to imply he's right wing. fuck journalists.

He looks like 8 billion other nerdy boys in his high school-aged pictures, just more dysgenic.
Seems more like everyone assumes that's exactly the case, with this person an example.
Saw loner & bullied in former classmates' descriptions of him. I'm calling mild developmental issues/autism, and probable incel, if he was even interested in anything but violent politics.
And the people talking about "Trump was spared by God/Jesus" are being hystrionic and idiotic. That firefighter/ father who died was probably a better man than Trump will ever be, and his death was not necessary. God had nothing to do with this.
No, it wasn't. But it should have been secured.
That doesn't look like the same guy in the high school photos at all.

The video itself looks real. The tiktok overlay makes sense if it was someone who made a new account with his name because there are millions of people searching that name, easy way to spread the video.

He didn't move in the way you would move if you took a rifle bullet in the chest. He also doesn't look like he is wearing enough protection to stop a rifle bullet.

The Trump campaign authorized GoFundMe for the victims of the shooting has now past $1.5 million dollars.

He should’ve been bullied to suicide. Then Trump wouldn’t have needed to be saved by Egyptian Kek and Christian God.

This made me laugh for some reason.
He should be holding a bed, not a diamond sword.

It's insanity to even humor the "if" here. There is no "if", the motive is clearer than glass in a Windex™ commercial. Which is exactly why doing this is fucking dangerous, insulting the intellect of the people who at the moment find you largely culpable for their presidential nominee's assassination attempt is an idea only the most suicidally retarded would entertain as anything other than madness.
I hope someone's getting into the ears of these idiots with some common fucking sense as this is not a situation to be pulling this crap with.

I would have done so too. At least I hope I would. But with how downthroten people are on self defence or castle doctrine rules or justified shootings, I wouldn't be surprised if there was this nagging thought at the back of their minds "What if it's just some faggot with a toy or fake gun? Is my life going to be over once I take this shot? Fuck, should I let one of the other guys take the shot first? Shoud I get clearance first and blame it on chain of command later?" I wouldn't blame them for that really. Specially after seeing how Kyle Rittenhouse still has people believeing that he shot unarmed black men on the street, despite all of them being white criminals, and being proved in court that it was self defence.
Edit: It seems I was right
Funny how for this is wait and on Wayco or others is shoot on sight.
