All due respect, but that's not EVEN a .50 cal...not even close!
The picture is fake anyway, but even if it was real, that's not even what a .50 BMG looks like.
Oh, and the "Browning Automatic Rifle" (BAR) was not manufactured in any other caliber than .30. It was a 7.62x63mm cartridge (although there were some variants in other countries, but never the .50 BMG).
A single shot of the .50 BMG cartidge through a barrel like that would likely explode it like a banana in all directions. The chamber and barrel pressures are WAY too high for a tiny barrel like that.

If it actually was Crooks who managed to nick Trump, given his skill level (relative to the spook "pro"), gun choice, and the circumstances under which he was shooting, you'd have to admit that actually hitting Trump at all was shear coincidence.
Of course this all changes if the plan was not to kill, or even wound, Trump, but to make it Look like an assassination attempt.
The spook fires three shots, none of which were Intended to hit Trump (which is why a professional is taking them), but which would launch his protection detail into action. The subsequent shots fired by Crooks would be, forgive the callousness, "icing on the cake". And would serve to draw the fire of the countersnipers to a visible target; providing "closure" in the form of a culprit, and tying up a loose end in the process.
That is certainly one theory, and not a bad one.

Zero chance Biden was directly involved. Whether he knew something was cooking is debatable.
Why hasn't anyone looked at Pelosi or Schumer? Those two seem to be afraid of getting caught scheming about something lately.

Biden can’t both be a potato and evil mastermind.
Biden is a potato, so who was pulling the potato’s strings.

He could actually have moments of lucidity alternated with potatoness. I believe he is complicit as can be fur his many years of being complicit before the potatoness.

Turn your brain on and listen to some of the things he has said recently! If you don't question his sanity you probably should question your own!

IMO - When 70% of all of your activities over the past 60 years have been either immoral (pevert) or illegal (stealing Nat Sec documents), you usually don't cease being vindictive and evil until you're dead.

Very cool. Even if you are right. Who cares? No one is voting for Biden. Time to move on!
