Ya he was a piss poor shot anyway. But a higher caliber would have likely have been fatal. I mean i dont think he would have survived a .50bmg round.
While a .50 Browning MG (12.7 x 99 mm) would've rocked his shit wide open like a pumpkin, it would still require a direct hit. The fact that a .50 BMG bullet is 12.7 mm long makes it more prone to wind deflection, although I will concede the diameter is more than twice that of the .223/5.56 x 45 mm bullet. Bottom line though is the kid was a piss poor shot either way.
No way did Oswald kill Kennedy that was the CIA they had the motive and the means to do so.
Joint hit between the CIA and the mafia, possibly with the knowledge and consent of LBJ, all of whom had the motive and the means. The mafia was angry that Joe Kennedy's son wasn't meeting their end of the bargain after they helped them get elected. They were expecting Kennedy to go to bat for all the unions the Italian-American mafia ran at the time. Meanwhile, to the CIA JFK was a loose cannon who was sleeping with Marilyn Monroe (exposing him to potential blackmail as the Commander in Chief), got the U.S. into the Cuban Missile Crisis and the Bay of Pigs fiasco, and at the fever pitch height of the Cold War with the Soviets, this was too much for the CIA.
Meanwhile Oswald was not a particularly impressive marksman, and the rifle he was using was badly out of calibration. His shots missed the cavalcade by at least several feet, ricocheting off the asphalt. Meanwhile Kennedy gets hit once in his neck seemingly from in front of him on the ground, and you can see him clutch his throat in response. The First Lady leans in to see what was the matter, and right at that moment, from the opposite approach (behind Kennedy) someone blows his goddamn brains out shooting him in the
medula oblongata. Jacqueline Kennedy immediately rolls out the back of the vehicle to safety, though more than a little bit traumatized, no doubt.
I also find it convienant that jack rubys shrink was involved in mk-ultra. Thats a fuck of a coincidence imo
Definitely the shadiest thing about it was how Jack Ruby, who shouldn't have had access to Oswald, killed him ostensibly out of patriotic vengeance, but perhaps actually so that Oswald couldn't be interrogated, interviewed or anything. Another convenience: Jack Ruby died shortly after, succumbing to the stomach cancer he had been battling for some time. Not impossible, but fairly sketchy circumstances.
Dr. West wasn't "Jack Ruby's psychiatrist" by the way. He's the one who evaluated Ruby after killing Oswald and declared Ruby sane enough to stand trial for his murder. But yes, he was involved in MK-Ultra, and that's definitely raised some eyebrows over the years.
None of this means Trump's assassination attempt was staged, though, just for anyone who thinks everything is a conspiracy.
Ok it is going to be trump because he got shot and was already winning in the polls.
Idk, there are a lot of different things that could happen. It remains to be seen. I do find it concerning how power hungry the GOP has been talking lately. The plan to consolidate power in the executive branch is troubling. It seems their goal is to overpower the checks and balances from the legislative branch via the corrupt and strategically appointed Supreme Court which is stacked 6 to 3 conservatives to liberals and has at least 2 or 3 Trump loyalists if not more.
So if the President has immunity to any criminal charges whilst making an "official act" as the Supreme Court recently ruled, then theoretically Biden could deploy Seal Team 6 to go "neutralize" Donald Trump… that would be fuckin' bananas, and despite what Justice Sonia Sotomayor opined I have my doubts things could go that far, but what do I know? She's the Supreme Court Justice and probably knows what she's talking about before my dumbass does.
