Gunman in Trump assassination attempt saw rally as 'target of opportunity,' FBI official says
A senior FBI official says the gunman in the assassination attempt on former President Donald Trump searched online for events of both Trump and President Joe Biden and saw the Pennsylvania campaign rally where he opened fire last month as a "target of opportunity."
WASHINGTON (AP) — The gunman in the assassination attempt on former President Donald Trump searched online for events of both Trump and President Joe Biden, looked up information about explosives over the last five years and eyed the Pennsylvania campaign rally where he opened fire last month as a “target of opportunity,” a senior FBI official said Wednesday.
In the 30 days before the attack, the FBI says, Crooks did more than 60 internet searches related to Biden and Trump, including seeking the dates of both the Democratic and Republican national conventions. FBI Director Christopher Wray has previously revealed that one week before the shooting, Crooks did a Google search for “How far away was Oswald from Kennedy?”
Looking forward to seeing how the MAGA elite spin this into their victimhood narrative.
I mean didn't we basically know this shit day three?
We also "knew" a bunch of other theories at the time, like his twitter implied it was Epstein related (I think, whole thing was murky).
This is more or less confirming a singular theory. Looks like he just did it because he believed he could. Maybe for legacy or infamy or just general importance.
The irony is that the assassination attempt itself has basically become irrelevant. The Vance couch meme currently has a bigger impact than this.
And we're so much better off with the Trump campaign imploding as it is than having the Republicans exploiting Trump's martyrdom had the assassin succeeded.
Now that the government has a hold of it we'll never know the true motive only what they tell us
Imagine if this guy chose to use a Tor browser for everything he searched. What a bizarre assassination attempt.
would still have missed the shot
Tor users don't miss 😎
Looking forward to seeing how the MAGA elite spin this into their victimhood narrative.
Something something wanted to attend Biden's rally as a fan, brainwashed liberal, etc. etc.
victimhood narrative.
Isn't that a correct narrative since there was, in fact, a victim?

What conspiracy theory is this?
I love a fresh conspiracy. How have I not fucking heard this one yet? The reverse Kennedy!
Probably something more brainless than flat earthers.
The shooter was actually 3 ukranian biolab drones in a trenchcoat
I think they might be referring to the Kennedy conspiracy?
