    Attempted headshot? Really? If you know you’re not skilled enough for it, go for the gut.

    This pretty much guarantees he’s going to win now. Dems would have to run a (performative) progressive with a pulse at this point and they would never.

      sounds like a small caliber pistol too. i haven’t been able to figure out how far he was from trump, but it was further than anyone who isn’t decently trained could easily make under pressure.

      edit: pics and some reporting was that he was on a raised container of some sort, about 100meters away, and other videos have the sound much clearer. definitely an AR or something

      Not so much about skill but shooting out of a small gun in a crowd, you obviously should go center mass. Although since it was certainly a very low caliber gun it was unlikely to work immediately either way.
