Crooks was a skilled marksmen..He knew exactly what he was doing.
“AI Overview
Yes, Thomas Matthew Crooks, the suspected gunman in the attempted assassination of Donald Trump, was a member of the Clairton Sportsmen's Club and visited the gun range there frequently. Records show he visited the range 43 times since becoming a member on August 10, 2023, including 20 times in his first four months. He also went to the range on several holidays, including Christmas Day, Valentine's Day, and Halloween. On the day of the shooting, he told his father he was going to the gun range, and his father allowed him to use his AR-15-style rifle. Crooks also purchased additional ammunition the same day.
Furthermore, a law enforcement official confirmed that Crooks visited the shooting range on Friday, the day before the shooting, where he practiced firing. He also visited a gun store to purchase more ammunition.”
Crooks was not under pressure. He roamed at will around the rally grounds and had already carefully selected the best place to get off a clean shot.
Fumbling try minimizing the situation.
