The roof on which the shooter was located was the perfect location for a clear shot at president Trump, with the roof slope providing cover from the view of the sniper until he was ready to fire. How is it possible that the SS did not sterilize this prime location within the saftey perimeter, let alone let Trump remain on stage once a possible threat was identified minutes before the shooting? How is it possible that attendees saw the shooter but the SS and law enforcement did not?? How can anyone believe the head of the SS that said no assets were on the roof where the shooter was because the slope was dangerous, when the SS is trained to take a bullet (a bit dangerous) and the slope was less than where the snipers were, while nothing was done to compensate for not putting assets on that roof? Any number of easy fixes could have been done, assuming such an implausible explanation is true. How did the shooter manage to get his rifle from his car, walk to the building, climb to the top, without being noticed and stopped? This transcends incompetence.

John, once again you miss critical information: inside the building itself on which Crooks took his shot

had police and or secret service, who deliberately staid inside because it was "too hot" on the roof, and or the roof was "too steep" per that ludicrous director Cheatle's own insane admission. WHY did they not act promptly?

Did they put up that large ladder we see, clearly not a 5 footer bought by Crooks.

There is deliberation here, of unfathomable intent since Crook was known to be with the perimeter for at least 30 minutes...

and yes, I too am convinced Crooks shot by lower sniper (to Trump's right)

another intriguing question I am unsure of: why and how could Cory Comperatore have been shot by Crooks if he, Comperatore, was so far away from Trump, far to Trump's right at the far right of the viewing stand he was in?

Could it be that Crooks was shot at the moment he was pulling trigger for more shots that made Crook's rifle schew to Crook's left, which would make sense if he was shot from his right, or maybe just the opposite...I dont know but something does not make sense, that Crooks could aim so accurately at Trump's head and then be so far off subsequently.
