According to Donald Trump Jr., the circumstances that gave a 20-year-old would-be assassin a clear opportunity to kill former President Donald J. Trump weren’t random.
In an interview with journalist Tucker Carlson, Trump Jr. stated, “I don’t honestly think that the men at the Secret Service — many who I know and like — suddenly left a whole roof unprotected where a person with a gun could get there for 20 minutes inside 150 yards.”
Like, it isn’t real. Trump Jr. stated, “That’s not being a conspiracy theorist.” “I mean, you’re a complete moron if you believe it was a coincidence.”
The shocking remarks made by Junior Trump shed light on what has largely only been discussed in private: Were there any government or US Secret Service members involved in the attempted murder? Did Thomas Matthew Crooks, the would-be assassin, receive assistance?
The most popular author of “How the CIA Went from Cold War Heroes to Deep State Villains,” is a senior analyst at the Center for Security Policy and asserts that it is impossible to rule out the least plausible possibilities.
On July 19, Waller stated on “Blaze News Tonight,” “It’s incredibly hard to differentiate incompetence from purposeful negligence, or even basic neglect or malice.” You cannot rule out animosity. It’s not impossible that someone intended for this to occur.
A senior U.S. military special operations specialist told Blaze News that there were signs that Crooks was ready and trained for an attempted assassination after reviewing all of the available data.
“Being this inept is not something that can really happen in the government,” the special operator stated, requesting anonymity. “It’s highly improbable that they didn’t guide Crooks to the right building.”
“Rank arrogance versus rank ineptitude. After thirty years in government operations, I’ve seen a lot of stuff. This was neither,” the expert stated, implying that Crooks’ actions provide early indicators.
The expert concluded that Crooks’ 11-minute drone flight two hours before the shooting was probably not for surveillance, but rather for route planning as he made his way onto the property and up onto the roof. At a US House hearing, FBI Director Christopher Wray stated that Crooks launched the drone about 200 yards from the platform where Trump was scheduled to speak.
Geolocation data from a phone connected to Crooks was sent between the Crooks’ Bethel Park, Pennsylvania, residence and Butler between July 4 and July 8, according to the Oversight Project at the Heritage Foundation.
The special operations specialist said that thieves likely knew that parking, fencing, and vendor setup would change the grounds the day of the event.
“This procedure must have “groomed” a 20-year-old, who had no prior military or government training, into performing a multitude of tasks accurately, such as using a rangefinder, drone, recon, and shutting off his phone. Most likely, the government or a shadowy funding source paid him.
The expert stated, “I don’t think he went rogue or was a rogue operator.” “I’ve witnessed and participated in these kinds of operations for far too long. He was given directives.
According to the operations specialist, a single special operator can easily train or groom eight to twelve teenagers, as well as perform precise operations like detonating explosive devices for kill missions.
One operator can run up to twelve people in order to take advantage of “many possibilities” and “activate” the ideal lonely and emotionally disturbed child at the ideal moment.
“I’ve done the source screening and grooming in as short as six months, but depending upon the operation, I’d require at least nine months,” he stated. “After the necessary number of months of grooming, I could prepare him for the required surgeries in as little as three days.”
The analyst speculated that more people have probably made efforts as a result of the Trump assassination attempt.
He declared, “Trump is more vulnerable than he has ever been.” “Stepping up his security won’t stop a group of ‘Somali immigrants,’ who are eager for Kamala Harris,’ from risking a suicide operation to remove Trump,” the statement reads. “I speak with knowledge and authority.”
He claimed that if the Trump shooting was some sort of botched deep-state government operation, they would usually put future operations on hold and give the reins to more extremist elements.
Law enforcement, event security, and even military special operations professionals are already talking about how many agents are waiting to attempt to get at Trump again. They assert that battle-tested private security contractors will be required to protect former President Trump until Election Day and beyond.
“The Secret Service of today requires more than just quick assistance from private businesses,” Waller said in an opinion piece for Blaze News on July 24.
“It’s imperative that we hold a legitimate election and resolve these concerns at the polls, not in a gun lobby.”
“Its political policy and dysfunctional personnel qualities go deep,” Waller stated, referring to the attempted assassination of President Trump. “Privatization of Secret Service operations can help address the issue swiftly in this situation.”
According to Waller, the circumstances surrounding the murder attempt now necessitate consulting outside specialists for event security and protection details. He recommended appointing Erik Prince, the creator of the security company Blackwater, to oversee Trump’s protection.
Erik Prince, according to Waller, “has a better record of safeguarding his people than anyone on planet,” during the July 19 broadcast of “Blaze News Tonight.” “He had a spotless record of saving the lives of the Americans his team was there to save while he was with Blackwater.”
According to Waller, President Abraham Lincoln first used the Pinkerton National Detective Agency to gather counterintelligence during the Civil War, which is when the Secret Service as we know it today originated. Private security agents working for Pinkerton had discovered and foiled an attempt to kill Lincoln in Baltimore in 1861.
According to Waller, in July 2008, the private security company Blackwater provided protection to future president and presidential contender Barack Obama while he was visiting Afghanistan. According to him, Blackwater established the benchmark for defending Americans in the most hazardous situations.
