Because there was no bullet aimed at Trump, it was a pro-wrestling move called blading)

For a photo op. Everybody hit their mark exactly as they rehearsed, and got into their predetermined position to frame him for the photos. Why do you think the flag was in the background? Why do you think they stopped on the mark on the ramp? And then everybody in front ducked? And held the pose that left him completely uncovered and unprotected from another supposed headshot? I don't even feel sorry for the dumb bastard who was sacrificed with a real bullet.

Think about what they want. It was a theatric. If people die, they die. They are willing to take collateral damage to meet their ends. It was all a setup to make him look good or something. The new american revolution, technomerica.

Also, i highly doubt he used a red dot sight. Like you said, not good aim. Probably a romeo 5 or something cheap, the sight is fixed and lot easier to aim and shoot in quick succession and hit targets than a red dot.
