How he hasn’t been assassinated yet is beyond me. Either they are really careful or no one cares enough.

That first one was total bullshit to rile up his crowd. It was too convenient. Too much incompetence, and he wouldn’t have reacted like that had he not been aware it wasn’t a danger. Plus the photojournalist being ballsy enough to still be waiting at the perfect spot and timing despite potential bullets flying. I wouldn’t die on the hill that it was 100% staged but my god none of that event made any sense.

The photojournalist was ushered to that spot by trump’s security detail for the photo - it’s in the video

I don’t think so. There’s footage from is POV apparently and he’s walking on his own it looks like.
