It was most likely staged. The way this man acts when he thinks he was slighted, by Bruce Springsteen for example, is like a raving lunatic. But he's all calm about the guy that supposedly tried to "kill" him and never talks about it unless asked? Please
I think the kid was paid to shoot over the crowd so they could stage the podium photo op. Kid misjudged and killed someone. Kid dispatched. End of story.
It could be as simple as this.
This is absolutely the most plausible theory I have ever heard about it.
Yea, I look at it more from a circumstantial angle. Viktor Orban visits Putin, then Trump at Mar a Lago in the same week one day before the "attempt", then Musk endorses Trump and goes full maga literally the same day. Musk was joking that he and Trump would have to go to Venezuela if they lost too
Still not sure, but really good points!
