REPORT: Sniper Photographed Shooter Before Attempted Assassination

Yet another disturbing report has surfaced regarding the assassination attempt of Donald Trump.

The report stated that a sniper team that had been deployed as part of the protection detail for Donald Trump snapped a photograph of the shooter before he took the shot.

According to the report, the source stated the photo has the shooter looking through his range finder minutes before he attempted the shot.

Should Have Been Stopped

The CBS News report only gets worse from there.

The report stated that there were three snipers stationed inside the building where Trump was shot instead of being deployed on the rooftop.

Their operation plan involved scanning the crowd from within the building rather than the elevated position of the roof.

One of the snipers had spotted the shooter looking up the roof, checking the building, then he reportedly disappeared from view.

The shooter then returned to the building, sat down, and did something on his phone, which is when the sniper reportedly snapped the photo of him.

When the shooter started checking a rangefinder, the sniper radioed Command. If that alert was ever received by command is unknown, but I would then have to ask why someone did not start blowing up phones to get more eyes on this kid.

To that point, they did lose contact with the shooter, but he again reappeared, this time with a backpack, and started to walk around to the rear of the building.

At this point, he should have either been pounced on and arrested or deemed an active threat and taken out by another sniper team, but that clearly did not happen.

Instead, two officers who heard the call went to the roof, with one officer hoisting another up to take a look, at which point the officer saw the shooter, who raised his weapon toward the officer, who then let go and fell to the ground.

Soon after, the shooter took his shot at Trump.

This is an inexcusable breakdown. The moment they saw that kid surveying the building, someone should have pounced on him and taken him into custody.

If you ask me, we should be seeing charges similar to what happened in Uvalde, TX.
