Fact check
Is it true: Trump/Butler Assassination-Attempt Theories?
It's still under investigation.
Parts of the official record on the Butler shooting are still incomplete, but no investigation has substantiated claims of deliberate facilitation, an inside job, or a second shooter. The House, Senate, GAO and independent panel reviews documented serious Secret Service failures, including an unsecured rooftop and siloed communications, and found no evidence that any individual intentionally allowed the attack.
