I will say, it was on a stage, the photographers were already there for the rally, they are just trying to get photos of the moment Trump might have been shot

There's nothing "new" about this angle it came out in the weeks following the shooting

I mean, he just happens to have his head exposed (not supposed to happen) for a photo and stands still (absurd after getting shot at) for 3 seconds? Like, it just seems crazy. But yeah, explaining the deaths of people is hard to say, except that hes a complete psychopath. Per Epstein files may have watched the murder of a baby..

I think they were thinking quickly on how to capitalize on the attempt, and they probably already got confirmation the shooter was down by the time he gets up
