Would-Be Assassin Thomas Crooks Was a Trump-Hater, Classmate Claims

The Bee:

bbtrumpballotbox.jpg

The media and Deep State's eight years of Assassination Preparation did the trick.

How many more assassins did they create?


A former classmate of Thomas Matthew Crooks, a 20-year-old man who attempted to assassinate Trump at a Pennsylvania rally on Saturday, revealed in a recent interview that Crooks had mocked him for supporting Trump and that Crooks did not like Republican politicians in general.

Vincent Taormina told Fox News in an interview, "I brought up the fact that I'm Hispanic and, you know, I'm for Trump. And he said, 'Well, you're Hispanic, so shouldn't you hate Trump?' No. He's great. He was a great president. He called me stupid -- or insinuated that I was stupid." The comments, Taormina said, came during a discussion in 2016 in an English class.

"He just did not like politicians, especially with the choices that we had. He did not like our politicians," he added.

Taormina noted that Crooks was usually silent, except on topics Crooks appeared passionate about, like politics. When those topics came up, Taormina said that Crooks could be "smug [and] arrogant."

"He would just talk, talk and act like he knew everything, especially politics related, and he would say it in a tone that was like, 'I'm better than you,' in a type of way," he said.

Well that doesn't sound like a Woke Progressive MSNBC Addict at all!


He also said that the school was closed due to anonymous threats to shoot up the school. He said he suspected Crooks. He wasn't in school the day one of those threats came in.


The FBI and DHS will continue, of course, to hide all information about the assassin they and their leftwing Regime allies brainwashed to kill the President of the United States.

They're all the same. They're all like this.

I'm not sure when this report came in, before or after the attempt.


Trump releases a stirring ad which keeps to the positive, but is pretty bad-ass in delivering that positive message. No reference to the left finally deciding to literally murder him, but you can hear it even if it's never said.


Below: When Crooks fired his bullet, it was aimed square into Trump's head. But the bullet takes as short amount of time to get to its target.

In that fraction of a second, Trump turned his head.

1 Could not someone walking around with a range-finder in an area where the President is going to speak be arrested under suspicion of committing a crime under 18 USC §1751(d)?

§1751. Presidential and Presidential staff assassination, kidnapping, and assault; penalties
(d) If two or more persons conspire to kill or kidnap any individual designated in subsection (a) of this section...

See full text: https://is.gd/w4T3KZ

Even if they don't lay charges, they have 48 hours to hold the guy and investigate, by which point the President is long gone from the area...

3 The left is going full BlueAnon about this. It was glass from a projector. It was staged. Etc.

It's not going to work and is pure copium for the fact Biden will be destroyed. Even fraud can't cover it now, and will just make a lot of people angry.

And the party bosses can't just "remove" him, because then they'll be accused of helping Trump!

5 I read where the would be assassins parents called the cops to try and warn them that something was going to happen.


Now we know why the fib was saying they were going to toss in domestic terrorist charges in the case, to keep his parents mouths shut or they would be charged as accomplices. The dad clammed up right off the bat.

21 I really think Trump wearing the MAGA hat saved his life.

Without the brim, he doesn't look up as much, lean his head back enough.
But then, that alone wasn't enough-- he had to tilt his head or the bullet still hits.
But, he tilts to reorient the visor back to block the sun (normal, instinctual when wearing a hat) that's the tilt to the side movement.

That hat, blocking him to read the words at that exact moment, was the reason he both turned and tilted his head at just the exact perfect angle to survive.

27 In a way, I feel sorry for Crooks.

He was fed a diet of Trump-hatred throughout his adolescence by media and public education, likely taught to hate himself for being a white male, came to see this as his one way of amounting to anything; and although this crime is ultimately on him, he was hung out to dry by Secret Service agents who, from malice or incompetence or both, frittered away multiple chances to take him into custody and resolve the situation without him or anyone else dying.

What a waste.

33 Snipers are not the only ones who use those range finders.
Of course they're popular with golfers; photographers use them too. Most golfers and photogs don't have a large rifle case, though. I'd like to hear more about the rifle case.

If you start arresting everybody with a 'gadget' for attempted assassination, you're going to get well-known in a hurry. Asking a few questions might not hurt, though. Like with my range bag at the airport: I never object to explaining what those rounds are doing in there.

But the other shots were further off ... or maybe Trump was already down, idk. Still don't know if there were three shots from Crooks, or up to eight some claimed. Audio should be able to tell.

And in the ensuing investigation, the FBI met their future patsy.

Except they had bigger plans than another red state school shooting for this one.

VP picks are about internal party faction appeasement.

Pence was Trump appeasing the GOPe. Haley would have been the same thing.

Vance is vastly different. It's Trump announcing that he has total control of the party at that level, that he doesn't need the old guard, and that they can fuck off if they don't like it.

99 It's an EAR. People punch holes in them all the time. the fixation on the wound is pretty funny. Will it need plastic surgery? How will he survive the pain and scarring? I’d bet money his newfound “Zen” is the result of a hefty dose of painkillers.

Maybe he'll drop out of the race, or stop campaigning. He’ll be looking over his shoulder wondering when the next attack might be. He didn’t look too worried though when he paused standing straight up with his head and chest exposed and pumping his fist.

The challenge to the gun-toting public is clearly out there. What challenge? Shoot better than Crooks. We live in a gun crazy nation. Someone will quite likely take up the challenge.

The maxi-pad is bigger today. At no time has any bandage showed blood leaking through.

He was't struck by anything. It's obvious from the leaked call with RFK Jr that the bullet did not actually hit him but rather just got close enough to cause damage.

Either way, he almost died for YOU. He is your redemption, remember? He was chosen by God to save you. So it is written, so it shall be.

Vance, at least to the this point, has been a very good representative of Trump Party which, amusingly, means that 20 years ago before the left fully took over the GOPe he'd be seen as a moderate.

The Left is a murderous pack of dirtbags and currently is buying off the police state apparatus.

theres a tax guy I watch on YouTube who talked about doing taxes for a trust fund baby woman in her 20s (and likely OnlyFans professional) and showed her how much taxes she saved due to the Trump tax cuts

to which she goes on a rant about how AWFUL Trump was because she was getting back so much of her money

he thought she was joking

he thought poorly

161 *JFK & John Connolly have entered the chat.
Posted by: rickb223

Interesting parallels between the assassinations of JFK and Franz Ferdinand:

1. Both took place on official visits to areas far from the capital of their respective countries;
2. Both took place while the victim was riding in a car, alongside his wife (though Jackie, of course, was not killed or wounded, unlike Sophie Chotek);
3. A governor was present in each case (in Sarajevo, the governor of Bosnia and Herzegovina was a guy named Oskar Potiorek).

168 The point of the GOPe is to enrich members of the GOPe. I forget which one of them said it...maybe Confederate Schmidt or MAP Weaver but they said the whole point was creating "generational wealth

That would explain the weird self-promotion of Babylon DC radio station WMAL promising that listening to their news and opinion will aid in creating "generation wealth".

I heard those two words and thought "How does one build generational wealth from a government payroll check?" Clearly, if building "generation wealth" is the out in the open stated goal, then corruption and self-dealing is a cultural requirement.

These people are deliberately importing criminals and barbarians and letting them out same-day after they murder and rape in our communities. They're letting the prog brownshirts walk free after brutalizing those who dare wave a sign or attend a speech. They're putting the force of law behind efforts to corrupt and them mutilate our children.

Sort of like when Biden allowed a Chinese spy balloon to drift across the US taking pictures of some of our most sensitive military installations and did nothing until it was off the coast. Or like when he botched the Afghanistan withdrawal getting 13 or our people killed and leaving billions in military hardware behind not to mention a key military base.

I've been thinking about this, just how close Trump came to having his head blown off. .223 muzzle velocity ranges from around 2800 -- 3200 fps, depending on bullet weight and other factors. Using the middle of that 3000, the time of flight of a bullet to travel what I'll call 150 yards is 0.15 s. 150 milliseconds.

Now, the time it takes for the thought to move a voluntary muscle to go from your brain to that muscle and cause it to move is on that order. Tens to 100 milliseconds.

So, shooter staring through target decides to pull trigger, Trump decides to move his head.

The timing difference between Trump alive with a nicked ear and Trump with his head blown off is less the 100 milliseconds.

Nope, it's not a stretch to say the Hand of God was involved.

cancel culture is an oppressive minority destroying people with the cooperation of cowardly companies. It is top down and forced.

Conservative boycotts are individuals punishing people and companies for immoral acts by not dealing with them as individuals. If enough liberals bought Bud Light or saw Disney movies they'd still make money. But they don't and so they pay the price, or fear they will.

--Jill Biden's people schedule a quick event for her (three days' notice) as a plausible excuse for taking the competent and experienced USSS people off the Trump detail.
--Left in place is Jill/Cheatle's man as on-site commander: and notice that he hasn't been named, and Cheatle is claiming that she was 'in command' of the Trump team's security plan (so his identity is shielded).
--Agent X sets up the perimeter so that Rando Crooks has an open field, literally, to take his shot.
--He misses, barely. Is killed. Dead men tell no tales.
--Two layers of plausible deniability are built in: "The USSS team just happened to be green and have some DEI hires, so of course they fucked up." And of course, "It was just a lone nutter, like Sirhan Sirhan," etc.
--The PTB now tell Biden Inc., "You had your shot and you failed. Now Joe has to go."
--Biden announces that he'll step down if doctors come to him and tell him he has to, "for his health."

100 milliseconds, a tenth of a second, is roughly the limit of human time perception. Say "one thousand one", roughly a second. You can perceive that "took some time".

About a tenth of that is the limit of your perception of the significance of the passing of time.

IOW, the timing of Trump turning his head vs the time the shooter pulled the trigger is below that.

Yep. The reason all these leftwing killers are "known wolves" is that the deep state is managing them.

Apply the right social pressure and you can turn a random loser into the next mass murderer/political assassin.

psychologists
"therapists"
"counselors"

(a) Trained professionals, and/or
(b) He told them what he intended to do.

Based on the report, he almost assuredly did the second.

>Washington Summit Declaration issued by the NATO Heads of State and Government participating in the meeting of the North Atlantic Council in Washington, D.C. 10 July 2024

>BBC US allies try to 'Trump-proof' Nato - but is that even possible? 5 days ago By Tom Bateman, BBC State Department correspondent

"Only one US president has been at the Nato summit in Washington this week, but the shadow of another - his predecessor - has loomed over this meeting of the world's most powerful military alliance.
While the host Joe Biden has presided over a message of unity from the group's 32 members, the Nato-sceptic views of his rival for power, Donald Trump, have imbued conversations here with an urgency and an anxiety.
At times the smiles from world leaders in the conference hall have felt fragile. Trump “hangs over every conversation here", said one Eastern European diplomat who asked to remain nameless."

He does things like that. On Hannity's radio interview with him on Monday or Tuesday, Vance told how Trump called him at home to ask Vance to serve as his VP. Vance's 7-year-old son was there, and Trump spoke to the boy for a few minutes. Not a photo op, not a campaign move.

Can you imagine F. Joke doing that even if he were compos mentis? Or Madame Pantsuit???

473 Those kinds of questions, the poor other guy who died are well above my pay grade. Well above.

And you know Trump is thinking about that. This guy, my supporter, took a bullet and died, a bullet with my name on it. He missed me by the Grace of God, but yet this innocent supporter dies.

That will weigh on him. And that may well be part of the picture Trump is supposed to see.

It's been my belief all along that they were willing to take the fallout for all the obvious and foreseeable "mistakes" as long as it worked. But it didn't, so they're stuck. And they're scared to death they'll be exposed either soon, or when Trump wins.
