FBI Director Says Trump Shooter Googled JFK Assassination Details

Donald Trump’s shooter, Thomas Matthew Crooks, sought inspiration — or at least intel — from JFK assassin Lee Harvey Oswald … according to the FBI.

FBI Director Christopher Wray spilled the new detail Wednesday about Crooks while testifying in front of a Congressional Committee … saying an analysis of Crooks’ laptop shows he Googled “how far away was Oswald from Kennedy” on July 6 — the same day Trump’s Butler, PA, rally was announced.

Wray also said July 6 was the same day Thomas signed up for the July 13 Butler rally … adding his online searches were an obvious indicator about his state of mind.

Oswald assassinated JFK in 1963 from about 265 ft away using a sniper rifle. Fast forward to Crooks, who fired at Trump from about 400 ft away with an AR-15-style rifle but missed, before Secret Service counter snipers took him out.

But back to Wray’s testimony — he dropped more bombshells about Crooks while trying to dig into his motives.

Turns out Crooks rigged up several explosive devices and even had a remote transmitter at Trump’s rally — and also flew a drone about 200 yards from the stage, possibly to get a closer look at the area around the rally.
