First, let me say that if President Trump had any doubts about there being a God, they have likely been totally removed. It is that way for many of us. With some, it is one big event. For me, it was many little things, to the point I can’t remember them all. It would be very difficult for me to deny his existence when about every time I turn around, I see something else that proves He is.

In Trump’s case, it is a little stronger. Many times it is that way when God has a special purpose for you, Nothing, but nothing can kill you. Take for example, the unexplainable fact that Washington’s clothing had 4 holes in them. Yet, he did not have one wound during the Revolutionary War. Moreover, he went on to become our first president. God clearly had a purpose for him. Had he been killed during the Revolutionary War, I think that the army would have scattered and today, there would be no United States of America and we would all be speaking English. Wait a minute. We do speak English. Hopefully you get my point.

The timing was precise. At the exact moment that the shooter shot, Trump turned away. What would have been a hole in his head was just a hole in his ear.

Please don’t get the wrong idea. One other was killed and two others seriously wounded. There were serious consequences to the the Secret Services sloppiness. Those roofs should have been cleared and two men should have been kept there on the roof until Trump left.

Now, before I get to the actual points to ponder. The woman heading the Secret Service should immediately be fired if not for the shooting, then for her understanding of responsibility. It means if she fails at her job, she gets fired, no matter who else might be involved in the failure. Leaders, good leaders, never point fingers and they never say it is someone else’s fault. Certainly, in this case, the fault cannot be placed on both the director and the local police at the same time.

1. There is a bit of irony in this situation. While the shooter intended to kill Trump, it would appear he actually helped him. No one wants to have something like that happen to him. However, it revealed Trump’s courage. It might have also given him a little attitude adjustment. Trump did say that every minute is a gift of God. I don’t know that he would have said that or knew that before.
2. Apparently, thankfully, the shooter was planning a head shot. Had he been aiming at the center of his chest, the movement would not have saved Trump.
3. The man got up on the building. How did he know that he could? Most folks wouldn’t try. They would take it for granted that it would be guarded. I am not yet thinking conspiracy, but this would give me a place to start.
4. I was a little confused about them saying the man was a Republican… more than a few times. It would seem to indicate that they want to make sure we all know that. To be sure, there are many Republican never Trumpers but it does create something of a conflict in my mind. It certainly put a tool in the hands of the dems, didn’t it?
5. Was he alone? They said Oswald was alone too. I’m still not believing that one. It would be very easy for someone back in the wings could have encouraged him and even provide a little assistance. The way I figure it, it took them a micro-second to say he was alone, before they knew. Moreover, I’m not sure they will look for someone else and ignore all evidence. The fact is, they don’t want anyone else to be involved. That would be inconvenient.
6. Old Joe admitted to implying that Trump was a target. Many dems made similar statements and I have heard no reprieves. If it comes right down to it, many of them are regretting that the shooter missed. Some have even stated as much in public. Though they did not pull the trigger, they encouraged the shooter. If the shooter had survived, they likely would have paid for all hisw legal costs.
7. One thing I do not understand is, why is the resignation not on Old Joe’s desk. The person who was put in charge of managing the site and keeping Trump alive and unharmed… failed miserably and he/she should have submitted that resignation Monday morning. That he survived was something of an accident. It was not due to anything that he/she said or did. Indeed, he is still alive in spite of all he/she neglected to do or say.

I understand about the suggested sightings up to thirty minutes ahead of time. It makes no difference. The failure was hours before when the the roofs were not cleared. With proper local supervision, the shot would have been. We might not have even heard of it. However, it still bothers me that once he was spotted, why wasn’t Trump put in a secure area?
