What's sus here

  • The secret service didn’t secure a roof that was a 9-iron away with a clear shot? Really?
  • The two cuts on Trumps cheek with minimal red look awfully cinematic. What are the odds. This is the second biggest point imo
  • Apparently someone in the crowd died. But you can see the crowd in the video. They cheer after Trump raises his fist. Nobody looks to the right, no group of people form a circle around a victim
  • The biggest point: What would the assassin gain? If he fails, Trump gets to rightfully play victim and get sympathy votes. If he succeeds, Don Jr could win this election with sympathy votes in a landslide. The same point would only hold to a lower degree for an assassination attempt on Biden. The same point wouldn't hold on the assassination attempt on JFK since JFK had a very unique stance on Cuba that any replacement from his own party didn't share.
  • Trump is currently leading in the polls.

  • The press: All the pro Trump headlines were talking about how old Biden is. No pro major Trump headline was actually talking positively about Trump himself. That changes now

Conclusion

There isn't no concrete evidence for it being fake yet. Just saying it would fit neatly together
