My thoughts on the Trump Assassination

Immediately after seeing the footage of the former presidents assassination attempt, I had questions.

Always ask questions.

The reaction Trump had to being shot, duck and cover. Rational.

Getting up after “a minute” asking for his shoes and thrusting a fist into the air; questionable.

I’m sure many psychologist will analyze his behaviors to poke holes into this story, which I am here for.

But, to be honest it all seemed a bit… odd.

Firstly the shooter. With a protruding forehead, glasses and whispy brown hair this young man doesn’t match the profile of a highly trained, calculated, long distance shooter.

Then the location of the shooter. In order to conduct a long range shooting of any target, there are many factors to take into consideration.

The distance of the target, calculating bullet drop, calculating weather conditions, and many other potential outliers that could impede the shot.

In short this had to have been very calculated, planned and then executed.

Why?

A 20 year old that later withdrew his loyalty to the Democratic Party, a recent high school graduate.

None of this seems quite right.

But perhaps, that’s what made it so.

Trump is notorious for off putting behavior, and my question after his assassination attempt became, what won’t he do?

Backlash will come at those who speculate he had a hand in all of this, that it was yet another forceful move towards his campaign prospects.

But I tend to side with anyone who will question this, as to me it does not seem so black and white.

Human behavior at this point is no longer shocking. What some people are willing to do is what makes them the “Trumps” of the world.

Studying human behavior has always interested me, as it seems those who are simply willing to do things that others wouldn’t; are often the ones that make history.
