The former president ducked to the floor as shots rang out and was mobbed by Secret Service agents, while the sniper, who was killed by security forces, has been named as Thomas Matthew Crooks.
At this point, we know very little, but with what we do know at the moment - for this, you’d need:
someone willing to be taken out as the shooter, willing to or being tricked into shooting blanks, or an extremely elaborate plan to switch in a body (you also have to acquire and prepare somewhere) in front of witnesses and potential cameras
someone without blanks firing to explain the other bystanders dead from bullets
complete control over the subsequent investigation, to make sure no one looks into it properly, which would make all the people involved in the know
It is still an extremely, extremely unlikely scenario
Agreed. Further, [email protected] in this post commented that we can hear the rounds hitting before the report, and since blanks don’t hit, we can presume this was not faked.
Or just use a razor and actually cut your ear. I’d say someone took their shot and missed. He happened to turn his head at the last moment, or the shot would have made a solid hit.

They literally did this plot on the Boys like a week ago.
