I don't believe it was staged. Today I've seen people talking about the bullet's trajectory first rising and then falling to hit Trump. Some think it was fired from the building (where the 3 snipers were inside), rather than the roof. It will take time to digest all of the information and work through the science of it all. But I don't believe the kid took what would have been the kill shot if Trump hadn't turned his head. He'd been shooting at a gun club for what, a year?
All bullets follow a parabolic path, the shape, mass, and speed of the bullet determines if it has a mostly "flat" trajectory or one so steep that you need to adjust your aim up or down to compensate for how far away the target is in respect to that ballistic arc. The bullet leaves the barrel, rises as it flies and then comes back down due to gravity and losing speed.
