LIVE: Second Assassination Attempt on Trump!

Chris - I hope you see this message from Australia, I tend to refrain from comment, however, on this occasion there is a question no one has asked. If trumps protection detail saw Routh and fired at him why was he not shot while retreating to his car and why was the car not followed. Why was he allowed to escape? if it wasn’t for the member of the public getting the photo of the car and licence plate Routh may have escaped.

Exactly! Routh was waiting alongside the 6th hole. When Routh was discovered, Trump was on the 5th hole, estimated to be 400-500 yards away. What everyone is missing is that had Routh not been seen, Trump would have continued onto the 6th hole, and at some point would have been within 30-40 yards of Routh. Whether an AK-47 style rifle is a good choice for a 400 yard shot is irrelevant. Routh had planned on a 40 yard shot.

It wasn’t a AK-47 type rifle. It is a SKS rifle and a funky scope mount.
