Representative Eli Crane (R-AZ) traveled to Butler, Pennsylvania and ascended to the roof of the American Glass Research Building, where Thomas Matthew Crooks, the assailant who shot President Trump and opened fire on multiple rally attendees at Trump’s July 13 event, was positioned.
Rep. Crane posted a video of himself on top of the building and stated, “I’m here on the building where the supposed sniper took a shot; it’s not that steep at all. We just had a 70-year-old back here climb up on the roof easily.”
Crane continued, “See that water tower behind me? Had the Secret Service or anybody had sniper teams up there, this guy would not have made it five feet up this roof he would’ve been taken out.”
“Behind me, you see the windows that the Secret Service were supposedly in the second-floor of this building behind; makes you wonder why they weren’t able to quickly dispatch the individual.”
Crane concluded his video by saying, “Lot of questions here in Butler.”
WATCH:
I’m on the roof of the building in Butler, PA where shots were fired in an attempt to assassinate President Trump.
As a former Navy SEAL sniper, it was clear to me that many security measures were dropped making Pres. Trump extremely vulnerable.
Many questions still remain. pic.twitter.com/p2EhBTFg1M

This video was taken from one of the windows the Secret Service had access to, overlooking the entire roof.
As you can see, they had complete coverage.
Makes you wonder how on earth they allowed the shooter to access the roof, let alone crawl up it & fire several shots. pic.twitter.com/C1GTUAuPEa
