Joe Rogan Reacts To Donald Trump Being Shot, Asks Critical Question: VIDEO
Joe Rogan wants to know how Thomas Matthew Crooks was able to get shots off on Donald Trump.
Crooks nearly killed the former President and current Republican POTUS nominee during a failed assassination attempt last weekend. Crooks hit Trump in the ear during a rally in Pennsylvania. A quarter of an inch inward and he would have hit Trump clean in the skull.
There are many questions that remain unanswered and lots of major issues. A motive remains unknown, Secret Service revealed they viewed him as suspicious an hour before the shooting and nobody seems to be able to explain why the building he fired from wasn't locked down. It had a clear line of sight to Trump at roughly 130 yards, and instead of people on the roof, it was left open in what is nothing short of a horrific security failure.
Rogan wants to know how that's even possible.
Joe Rogan reacts to Donald Trump being shot.
"How the f*ck does this 20-year-old kid climb on that roof and no one sees him...[People there] are yelling he's got a gun. There's a guy in the prone position on a roof 150 yards away from the former President. The whole thing is nuts. The whole thing stinks of either incompetence or design or we're in a matrix. Like, this is a f*cking fake movie," Rogan said when reacting to Trump being shot.
Rogan also criticized the "bumbling" female Secret Service agents around Trump as shots were being fired. One female agent embarrassingly couldn't get her weapon holstered or hold it properly. To be fair, a female agent there did jump in like a linebacker jumping over the offensive line, but she was still way too short to cover Trump's head.

How Crooks was able to get on the roof is one of the most important questions we need answered, and the sooner it gets answered, the better it will be for everyone.
He literally climbed up on the roof of a building with a clear line of sight at the man currently leading the polls and got multiple shots off.
The Secret Service claims the roof didn't have people on it because it was slightly sloped. Absolutely nobody with gunfighting experience actually believes that's true. I spoke to multiple Tier One operators and as one said, it's a "complete bulls*t" excuse.
It's a security failure that is so bad that it's hard to even realize it's real. Any person with a functioning brain could take one look at the setup and realize having an elevated position with a clean look at Trump's position might be a problem.
