Tucker Carlson posted shocking new footage of the assassination plot against Donald Trump in Butler, Pennsylvania on July 13, 2017. The Secret Service failed to act immediately when multiple attendees spotted the shooter, yelled that he was armed, and pointed it out.
It wasn’t some brilliant, masterfully executed plan by a legendary killer, but a creepy man on the roof who was never supposed to be allowed up there. As we learn more, it becomes more and more unbelievable.
As the shots rang out, the footage shows the terrified crowd ducking for shelter as they point out the shooter.

One witness shouts, “He has a gun!” The wannabe assassin managed to fire eight shots, killing fireman Corey Comperatore, wounding two other people, and coming millimeters away from taking out former President Bush.
It is hard to imagine the extent of this security breach.
The video is a preview of the new Carlson documentary “Art of the Surge”: the Donald Trump Comeback. In Tucker’s excerpt, witnesses on the ground describe their experiences:
We’ve been embedded with the most pivotal presidential campaign in modern history. Our documentary series premieres tomorrow, October 2nd, on https://t.co/sLkXnGKCFd. Highly recommended. pic.twitter.com/niqQc52viC

One man asks, “How did a gun manage to get into this area of security?”
Rep. Byron Donalds, R-FL, says that Donald Trump was only centimeters from being absent.
Another lady said, “God wants him to be alive.”
We all know that this was not the first attempt to assassinate Trump. A second attempt, made in September by Ryan Wesley Routh at the Trump International Golf Club, West Palm Beach, Florida, was also unsuccessful. Routh is currently behind bars, awaiting trial. He has pleaded guilty.
The new Butler footage only adds to the image that the Secret Service was so incompetent that day that it is a miracle that the ex-president survived. Imagine what might happen if a professional, say an Iranian, tried to bring down Trump. It would have been easy to take down Trump in July.
