I saw that video. I don't think he was aiming towards trump, he was on the opposite side of the suv. Now that in no way excuses the fact he was aiming at thin air and should not be aiming his rifle unless he intended to shoot someone. Was he supposed to shoot trump idk, maybe he was standing in the wrong spot and he fucked up the assassination attempt we may never know. But where he was standing in relation to where trump was, I think he was not aiming at trump.

There is another view that makes it clear he was covering something behind the SUV.
