.IT WAS ACTUALLY A stunning lapse in protection: exactly how carried out a sharpshooter install an unsecured roof along with a direct line of vision to Donald Trump, that was standing a mere 150m away? Based on video footage, it seems like Mr Trump was millimetres from fatality-- saved by a fortunate convert of the head a flash before Thomas Matthew Crooks, a 20-year-old coming from Pennsylvania, shot at him. Crooks killed a rally-goer before being actually fatally fired themself.
