My favorite conspiracy theory is that Trump was never the assassin's intended target. It was Mr. Comperatore that Corey was after, for some personal grudge, and Trump just happened to get in the way.
They were both from PA. Crooks could easily have known Mr. Comperatore.
In all seriousness, though, all respect to Mr. Comperatore and sympathy for his grieving family. And I don't actually believe this was anything other than what it appears: right-wing violence turned against itself, and both an incompetent shooter, and incompetent Secret Service security. Trump got lucky on both counts: he survived an attack, and has a perfect campaign photo.
I'm not sure Mr. comperatore is worthy of your respect, judging by his social media history.
God damn what a despicable person!
I'm positively shocked the man at the fascist rally wasn't a good person.
Well, not that shocked
About as shocked as I am the sky is blue
