SO, I NEED TO ASK

Points to ponder:

[ ] [ ] [ ] [ ] [ ]

Let’s see if I have this right!

1… outdoor rally

2… unsecured, unchecked building too close to rally

3… ladder resting against unsecured, unchecked building too close to rally

4… young man, too young to vote, too young to drink walks nearby with rifle

5… not many people around and yet, no one pays any attention to young man, too young to vote, too young to drink who walks by with rifle.

6… no one pays any attention to young man, too young to vote, too young to drink who walks by with rifle as he climbs the ladder to get to the roof of the unsecured, unchecked building too close to rally

7… misses target …. Ya think????

8… suddenly unsecured, unchecked building too close to rally is swarming with police, FBI and secret service.

9… young man, too young to vote, too young to drink who walked by with rifle and climbed the ladder to get to the roof of the unsecured, unchecked building too close to the rally has been shot dead.

10… ** while still unproven, Fox reported that an investigation released a few days after the shooting, showed documentation stating that the shooter, too young to vote, too young to drink who walked nearby with rifle had a very large encrypted, offshore bank account. Where did that money come from? Who paid him to “miss”?

TOO MANY POINTS TO PONDER!

TOO MANY QUESTIONS AS TO HOW ALL THIS HAPPENED!

Here is my theory: Remember, this is only MY theory.

We all know that the so-called victim (and we all know who that is) loves to have his name and/or face (preferably both) in the news. If that doesn’t happen on a daily basis, he takes to his truth social account and rants like the lunatic he is.

So………….. knowing this:

… young man, too young to vote, too young to drink who walked by with rifle and climbed the ladder to get to the roof of the unsecured, unchecked building too close to rally that has now been shot dead, and just might have that off-shore, encrypted, hefty bank account, might have been enlisted by either the so-called victim or one of his henchmen with promises of wealth and fame providing he shoots AND miss his potential target - (everyone else there is just collateral damage) (don’t worry, we’ll bail you out if you get caught and you’ll receive a pardon).

More than likely, he was never once told he might be, himself, another victim of the would-be attention grabber. (and that’s right, I refuse to put his name on paper. However, we all know who I mean.)

It’s mind boggling to think all of this happened the way it did with little to no explanation. Yet, there it is! Points one through nine happened exactly the way I wrote them.

Ten, has never, to my knowledge, been satisfactorily investigated. There have been no further reports on that matter. It was all conveniently swept under the rug. Why?

To further my suspicious mind: what was the first thing he said to the secret service?: “Get my shoes” ………… HUH!! What was so special about his shoes that he needed to worry about them while the top of his ear was bleeding (and not profusely, for that matter)?

To further my suspicious mind, even further, the so-called victim was quickly assessed, treated, and released from the hospital. If the wound was as critical as we were led to believe, he would have warranted at least an overnight stay in said hospital. That didn’t happen.

Shall we go on? Sure, why the hell not?

If he had been hit with the type of bullet claimed to have been fired from that rifle, the top of his ear wouldn’t have been grazed. It would have been gone, not to mention a burn mark on his scalp alongside the ear wound. More than likely, it was nothing more than shrapnel that grazed his ear and left the small wound (and yet, according to the photo that were released, the wound was small).

(Ironically, no one saw blood util the secret service helped him to his feet but if you remember, he grabbed his ear when he dived to the floor. So, what could have been in his hand that all-too conveniently could have slice the top, and only the top of his ear? Hmm, makes you wonder!)

Final thought:

His small wound on the top of his ear could have easily been covered with either a large band aid or a small bandage – meant to keep it clean while healing, which should have taken about one week. There was absolutely no reason to wear such a large bandage that covered his entire ear.

That, my friends, was done for effect - a statement, attention, (Oh, look at me! Someone tried to assassinate me)!

Oh, for Heaven’s sake!

And yet, all the antics I mentioned were completely eaten up like candy by the cult we know as maga. Did you notice how many of them began wearing large ear-covering gauze pads?

So, I need to ask. Knowing what we all now know, thinking about what had been reported on news stations and printed in the newspapers, was this all an attention-grabbing hoax that resulted in the deaths of two people?

If you think, “aw, come on, that’s not possible,” remember January 6 and what he encouraged his followers to do.

Yes, it’s not just possible, but in all honesty, probable.
