Alocal police counter-sniper team was stationed inside the building where attempted assassin Thomas Crooks climbed on the roof and fired on Donald Trump, law enforcement sources told The Post.

The building — the AGR International Inc. factory in Butler, Pennsylvania — was being used by local police as a “watch post” for snipers to scan for threats as the former president spoke onstage only 130 yards away, according to sources.

Cops were inside, but not on the roof during the shooting, sources said.

Crooks was able to scale the building unchallenged before firing off eight shots with an AR-style assault rifle, grazing Trump in the ear, killing one Trump supporter and wounding two others.

The revelation comes as local outlet WPXI reported the Crooks was spotted on the building 26 minutes before he opened fire — with one sheriff’s deputy from the Beaver County Sheriff’s Department emergency services team even taking a photo of the gunman before the shooting.

Anybody who thinks a 2/12 pitch roof is steep ain't too bright, but then again, I'm not as smart as DEI Princess director of the SS.

It's like a 2 y/o caught in a lie, they just keep saying stupider and stupider shit.

I wonder what they'll say next...that Trump autographed the guy's AR just before the rally? That the anti-sniper team steadied the ladder so he could climb up safely?

I finally broke the internet...

You certainly did, my man, at least 4um's internet.

The first time I noticed that was on one of the Saturday night goof threads with Dr. Kimmy, Dak and me. I thought the world was interested in my sex life, now I'm gettin' erectile dysfunction not being able to relive the experience.
