Donald Trump Jr. Suggests Assassination Attempt Wasn’t Coincidental, Cites Mounting Evidence

In a recent interview with Tucker Carlson, Donald Trump Jr. asserted that the assassination attempt on his father, former President Donald Trump, was no coincidence. He harshly criticized those dismissing the idea as foolish, stating, “Anyone who says so is a freaking idiot.” This statement has sparked widespread speculation and debate, prompting many to question whether the shooting was an inside job.

National security experts, some choosing to remain anonymous, have begun to voice similar suspicions, suggesting that the shooter, Thomas Crooks, may have been groomed and assisted. This raises the critical question of who might be complicit in the crime.

Steve Baker, an investigative journalist and Blaze Media correspondent, joined “Blaze News Tonight” to delve into the growing body of evidence. He discussed the incident on July 13 in Butler, Pennsylvania, where the shooting occurred.

Blaze Media had the advantage of having sources present both on the evening of the incident and the following morning, before a Secret Service gag order was enforced. Baker emphasized the most significant finding from Blaze sources: the communication breakdown among security forces.

“The radio communications were … ‘siloed,’” Baker explained. He detailed how the Secret Service and local law enforcement at the rally were not in communication with each other because they had not been adequately prepared beforehand. This lack of coordination became critical when suspicions arose about Thomas Crooks.

“When things started going wrong and then suspicions began being raised about this particular guy, Thomas Crooks, on the ground … they couldn’t get communications back to verify that he was not a blue-on-blue situation,” Baker said. This communication failure allowed Crooks to fire the first shot.

The question now is whether this lack of preparation and communication was deliberate. Donald Trump Jr. clearly believes it was, pointing to the unusual circumstances and the gaps in security as indicative of something more sinister.

The unfolding investigation and emerging testimonies have led many to consider the possibility of internal complicity in the assassination attempt. As more details come to light, the pressure mounts on authorities to thoroughly investigate and address these serious allegations.
