.IT WAS ACTUALLY A magnificent lapse in safety: exactly how performed a sniper install an unsecured rooftop along with a direct view to Donald Trump, that was actually standing up a simple 150m away? Based on online video footage, it looks like Mr Trump was millimetres coming from fatality-- saved through a lucky turn of the head a flash prior to Thomas Matthew Crooks, a 20-year-old coming from Pennsylvania, fired at him. Criminals killed a rally-goer just before being actually fatally shot themself.
