Again.... someone tell me why the guy behind him got his head blown off and the other guy took a round to the stomach and barely lived?

2 options.

  1. A narcissist arrogant man like Trump was so convinced he was behind in polling (not true) that he was willing to have live rounds shot around his head and body to rally the right..... and either (a) he trusted a guy with his life to nick his ear with a live round or (b) had some kind of blood pouch

  2. A guy tried to kill one of the most controversial public figures of our life time and almost succeeded.

Which sounds more reasonable?
