The gunman who attempted to assassinate former President Donald Trump Saturday was identified as 20-year-old Thomas Matthew Crooks, sources told The Post.
Crooks, of Bethel Park, Pa., squeezed off shots — one of which grazed Trump in the ear — at an outdoor rally in Butler, just outside Pittsburgh.
Sources said Crooks was planted on the roof of a manufacturing plant more than 130 yards away from the stage at Butler Farm Show grounds.

Secret Service Under Scrutiny After Trump Assassination Attempt
Trump just proved that he’s a pure warrior after his heinous assassination attempt
They called him an illegitimate president.
They said he was a threat to democracy and had to be stopped.
They unleashed a legion of agents to investigate him, searched his home and broke historic barriers by indicting him.
Then they rigged a trial in a bid to put him in prison.

The attempted assassination of President Trump is killing the left and especially the deep state lackey’s in the media.
Trump’s behavior was simply magnificent, the stuff of true grit and has I believe won him election over Face Down in the Tapioca Joe.
The fist pump photo is a stick in the eye to his detractors.
The media was every bit as awful as you imagined them to be none worse than the Washington Post who chose yesterday to run this hate screed against Trump supporters with the sidebar Trump rushed off stage after loud noises at rally. Trump supporters are always Hitler but somehow the brownshirts are always leftists.
