    The timeline is going to be interesting about what they knew and when they knew it, given reports folks were telling police they saw shooter climbing onto roof.

    Video suggests snipers were drawing down on shooter at least 36+ seconds prior. Not sure sniper is even a fair term given his complete lack of skill. Fudd could do better of setting up a shooting position and engaging.

    Did the sniper with the weapon on a tripod fire? It looks like he looks up and then flinches, and then his tripod moves back. Is that him flinching when the bad guy fired? Or is that tripod movement the result of the recoil of his rifle?

    We don't currently know if the "sniper team" was Secret Service or local/State LEO affiliated....both have been used on previous details...according to Bongino....

    dont know but slowing it down those movements are almost exactly same time Trump grabs his ear.

    I would guess yes he was tracking shooter and fired when he saw/heard muzzle flash. Then recoil caused him to lose his shooting position cause he has less experience in a tripod than a hog hunter.

    If they weren’t in that position everyone would be bitching and asking why there wasn’t a sniper team in that position and why they didn’t have great big binoculars.
