Melania Trump Hints At Conspiracy Theory About Husband's Assassination Attempt
HuffPost
"We need to uncover the truth," the former first lady said in a video posted on her social media accounts.
Former first lady Melania Trump on Tuesday openly questioned why law enforcement officials failed to stop a shooter before he was able to carry out an attack on former President Donald Trump at one of his campaign rallies earlier this summer, adding that “there is definitely more to this story.”
In a video advertising the release of her new memoir titled “Melania,” which is due to be released next month, Melania Trump shared her feelings about the former president’s assassination attempt.
“The attempt to end my husband’s life was a horrible, distressing experience,” she said. “Now, the silence around it feels heavy. I can’t help but wonder why didn’t law enforcement officials arrest the shooter before the speech. There is definitely more to this story and we need to uncover the truth.”
The shooter, 20-year-old Thomas Matthew Crooks, managed to fire eight times before he was killed by a Secret Service counter sniper on July 13. The shooting took place while the former president was delivering a speech at an outdoor campaign rally in Butler, Pennsylvania, and Donald Trump’s right ear was wounded as a result of the attack. One person was killed and two others were injured in the shooting.
FBI officials have yet to identify a motive for the shooter, but have said he likely acted alone.
