Trump Shooter Thomas Matthew Crooks Video Shows Him Joking About Penis

Thomas Matthew Crooks -- the shooter who tried and failed to take out Donald Trump -- clearly had a raunchy, sophomoric sense of humor ... as seen in new video obtained by TMZ.
www.tmz.com www.tmz.com





If the video game comments are true the stuff about no online presence is bullshit. Both are online only games.

Everyone has an online presence today even grandma.

I was expecting a bunch of videos and a manifesto by now but instead it looks like that movie Telefon. Somebody called him and his programming switched on.

From listening to the audio, the shooter fired three shots, then the SS snipers shot 5 or 6 shots, then more than ten seconds later a final shot was fired by the SS... likely an insurance shot if the shooter was still twitching. The close-up shows his front teeth shattered and there's evidence of bone fragment or other spall/fragment exiting just behind his ear at the jaw level... and it looks like there's a massive wound you can just see the edge of where the bullet path exited his head. Wonder if he raised his head up after Trump dropped and took a round into his open mouth.

I think the roof SS snipers were looking to where the disturbance by the shouting crowd was... at that distance they may well have heard the crowd call out about the man with a rifle... and at the first shot located the shooter and took a few seconds to reposition so as to see past the tree, then dumped a fusillade into the shooter.

The response was impressive, the failure was in letting this Progressive idealistic idiotic kid get a sight picture on Trump and get three shots off. Anyone who registered Republican but donates to Democrats did so to mess with the PA Republican primaries... this was widely encouraged by Democrat PACs during the primaries as a strategy to drain Trump's campaign funds. I'll blame the violent rhetoric from Democrats, including Biden, telling their useful idiote that Trump was Hitler and posed an existential threat to America for this kid's actions... and I bet there was similar talk around his kitchen table at home. Thankfully the kid had what looks to be a 1X red dot sight and not a scope on the rifle, and that Trump turned his head to look at the shooter/sound after the first shot missed. The outcome would have been different if his dad had been a deer hunter and he grabbed the scoped '06.

Sure, you got it all figured out. Do explain this to me. One guy dead with a head shot, another hit by two shots, a third with a grave hit, and a wild shot at the end that hit a hydraulic hose on the forklift holding a speaker. That’s at least five shots.

But maybe he used his Bowie knife to split a couple of the shots like in Hollywood movies. 🤷🏻‍♂️

Failed Trump Assassin Purchased Ladder and 50 Rounds of Ammo on the Morning of the Rally, According to New Report | The Gateway Pundit | by Cassandra MacDonald

Failed Trump assassin Thomas Matthew Crooks appears to have purchased the ladder he used to scale the building and 50 rounds of ammunition on the morning of the Butler, Pennsylvania, rally.
www.thegatewaypundit.com www.thegatewaypundit.com

Seriously? I can hardly believe this….kid buys a ladder (10 foot or 12 foot from what I can see), stuffs it into a sonata, drives an hour, carries heavy fiberglass ladder around building that’s the command post for supposed police, all whilst toting his rifle….in broad daylight….and NOBODY in LE noticed this? NOBODY????

Tomorrow, I’ll be turning one of my Maisto Formula 1 models into the actual car….that’s about as plausible. Either THIS story is bunk or you can make your own conclusions.

Of course he was on top the cops HQ/BOO......he had to get help from them to carry and setup the ladder.
Duh.

Not just amish, but scary amish not to be trifled with. I was visiting friends in Chiraq several years ago and missed a turn trying to get back on the interstate. I went from downtown to immediately in the hood. Derelict cars on the side of the street & cars up on blocks missing wheels right next to spotless brand new BMW’s. I was also instantly the only white kid around and everyone stopped and stared as I tried to figure out how to unfuck the situation

But, back on topic. I was originally inclined to believe that this situation was a massive, royal, bigly fuckup by the ss and the local pd. It definitely still is that but they had help from someone or several someones. There’s zero excuse for the closest rooftop to the stage being unattended and the shooter being fucking pointed out for so long and still getting a shot off.

One of those fiberglass 12 foot step ladders (or was it 10 feet) are damn heavy (at least the ones I've handled). If true, did the SOB pull it out of his car and pre-stage? If so, how long before the event? Why wasn't there a walk around the perimeter? Hell, why wasn't there a CS on THAT roof? If he didn't pre-stage and he's toting a ladder and his weapon and whatever else he packed....he must have been a lot bigger than those videos showed and SOMEBODY had to have seen him. This whole thing stinks.

The tall ladder shown in pics was likely placed there by "security" to check out the roof.
"Nuttin here, too hot, lets hit the donuts".
Crooks either used it to access the roof or climbed up at another point.
4 USSS snipers stayed on their roofs, dressed in black
LEO assigned to the shooters building probably did some pre-checks, some walk arounds then retired to the AC in the building and watched the perimeter through the big picture windows in the building.
Has the 5' HomeDepot ladder been found? Someone obviously knows about the Home Depot purchase (with store video).

Not to start a fight, but, I have been to a range or two, and just because folks are at a range and have a range finder doesn't make them knowledgeable.
The tool(s) of choice, position, etc say he was less than knowledgeable, at least in the task he was attempting.
I saw a pic, (Can't find it again), that looked like a RedDot on the AR he had on the roof. And, an AR 5.56 wasn't the right tool.

I agree with you. Seen a ton of gear queers with all the right stuff, and all the right knowledge, but still didn't have the skillset to hit a target.

Well, half of it is "Amish." Everything east of Western Ave. in the neighborhood of "Englewood." West of Western Ave. is a totally different story. That's the neighborhood of "Marquette Park." Well, to be fair, the neighborhood of Marquette Park (which encloses the actual Marquette Park itself) is bordered on the north by 63rd st, on the South by 79th St. , by Western Ave. on the right and Pulaski Ave. on the left. And a bit southwest of that would be the neighborhood of "Ashburn," and farther northeast (near 35th and the old Comiskey Park), is the neighborhood of "Bridgeport."

Let's just say, the "Amish" know they'd never set foot in any of those neighborhoods after sundown! Marquette Park is where all the Neo Nazi's hang out, especially the ones that threatened to march on Skokie that one time (they made a TV movie about it). Bridgeport is where Richard J. Daley grew up and where his successor, Michael Bilandic was born. And trust me, I know from experience that if you don't look like someone they think should be living there, you will get the stink eye from them (especially the cops). You have to be escorted in and out. I went out to lunch with some co-workers at a local restaurant there, and it was the most uncomfortable thing I'd ever experienced.

Who took this picture and when? Security Camera? Or LEO took this? Did he have a weapon at this time? Someone took this picture because he was suspicious, you wouldn't let him out of your sight and if he had a weapon....

This is the only picture I have seen of him not on the roof. None of this makes any sense

This would be SOP to protect a first lady vs. providing resources for an 'ex-president's' detail, which is not a priority vs. FLOTUS or POTUS.

Again, bureaucratic excuses for "We were following SOP and you can't fucking touch us for this..." -- Sincerely Cheetoa the USSS DIE broad in charge..

Now it's come out that local law enforcement noticed Crooks 26 MINUTES before the shooting, took a photo of him, and reported it to Secret Service, because the officer saw the kid with a range finder and they were trying to determine whether it was just binoculars for watching the event, or indeed a laser RF.

Tim Dillon posted a banger with Alex Jones that does not disappoint.



He calls the global elite who planned the hit on Trump "Aliens & Lizard People" then at 41 minutes starts throwing up saying he is "preparing to die."

Do we really live long enough for all that crazy stuff that Alex Jones says to become true?

Through the optic, the kid saw POTUS go down and probably felt the biggest sense of accomplishment in his whole life, then decided to make “the bully’s supporters" pay by randomly firing into the crowd. His sight picture was Trump’s head in the crosshairs, no way he could miss. Broke the shot, doesn’t have any type of sight picture management training, recovered the sight picture and saw Trump down, then shifted fire left to sweep through the bleachers.

Before SS put a bullet through his skull, he was feeling like a giant. Upon arrival to purgatory with the other murderous souls, they immediately informed him, “YOU MISSED YOU IDIOT!!!!, LOOK!"

He probably got a chance to look down and see Trump’s fist in the air, then the totality of his actions set-in, realizing the consequences are eternal. He wasted his life for nothing, while divine intervention made it but a scratch.

Cop confronted Trump shooter but RETREATED when rifle was aimed at him

According to sources, a police officer sheepishly backed away when the would-be assassin pointed a gun at him, just moments before he then fired in Trump's direction, clipping his ear.

Just something to think about. If any LEO’s on that day are just carrying there duty issued side arm they really aren’t there for business in my eyes.
Every cop on that detail should have been carrying a long gun.
Because the bad guy is definitely going to have one.

Now that Chevron Deference is gone, even if Trump went anti-2A, it wouldn’t matter.

Congress would have to create a majority movement to attacking the 2A, which is not anywhere near the top of Trump’s priorities.

His own kids are huge gun owners and he knows the base draws the line there.

That said, I don’t put my faith in any man and nothing would surprise me at this point.

When they actually blew JFK’s head apart, shot JFK in the throat and back, perforated Governor Connally’s chest and right lung, broke his wrist, shot his left leg, along with a bystander being hit in the cheek (James Tague), how many people were held accountable in the Secret Service and local Dallas LE? If I recall, there were promotions and more funding for the SS. Dallas PD were seen as heroes, and it was all blamed on a lone gunman.

"Next time, we won’t miss. Here’s your VP."

Reagan and Bush despised each other. Bush coined the term “Voodoo economics”. Guess which family was close friends with the Bushes and funded W. Congressional campaign.

JFK and LBJ hated each other, as did Bobby and LBJ as well. We know how that turned out.

Nixon ran with Agnew, not Ford. They proceeded to conduct a coup against Nixon with the whole Watergate scam, where the plumbers signed-in with the security desk even on one of the nights. They were trying to get caught.

Welike to shoot yes? Miss a head @150 really? If anything this was a done deal i mean for fucks sake please put yourself in situation “ distance 150, semiauto rifle ok Ruger i get it a bit of a handicap -but it will not jam” know your limits, and to be honest Trumps head is more like a melon than an orange yes.. Would you not take it and be confident in hitting it like 99.99%. But due to chance/god/script/aliens/whatever dude turned just at the right ms and just in the right direction. Now the “leftie option” is out of explanations how in the hell a sure done deal happened in sour way and there is no fucking way in this universe that “a guy walked into the bar”… If he had hit it then perhaps, but he missed and now no amount of “copium” will fix stupid and the left is stripped of its clothes, Emperor and those around him are naked and worthless.

Hello, fellow gun enthusiast.

You were a kid, not knowing any better. Also, rather than looking at a static scene, imagine everything in motion and changing directions.

Also, look at footage of impacts on meat targets.

Timeline suggests mere seconds between events. Shooter got spooked/rushed. LEO hoisted himself up on roof edge, comes face to face with shooter, drops back to ground, shooter gets spooked, starts taking shots. It all happened within seconds. So that's probably why. That said, if Trump hadn't turned his head at that moment, he would have been critically hit. So the shooter's aim was actually not bad.

That said, the other shots went wild. Hit some people in crowd, hit a hydraulic line on a crane, etc. So who knows.
