Thomas Matthew Crooks did not do enough aim training.

From Wikipedia:

Crooks fired from a roof outside the rally venue using an AR-15–style semi-automatic rifle, firing eight rounds before being killed by a sniper from the Secret Service Counter Assault Team.

Dude had 8 fucking attempts. Thats almost too unbelievable.

Right, like he was never meant to kill trump.

Ok, the conspiracy shit is already old. 0% chance it was rigged.

I wouldn’t say 0% chance, but I agree that it is unhealthy to jump straight to conspiratorial thinking. Especially given just how little we know at this point.
