It's common in America to refer to former presidents as President. A sign of respect, presumably.

Don't they have multiple airborne drones and AI monitoring roof-tops to guard against human error and rogue security allowing incidents like this to happen involving Presidential candidates like Trump?

Trump
"I was shot with a bullet that pierced the upper part of my right ear," Mr Trump said.
"Much bleeding took place..."

How many bullets to a round?
'The shooter fired as many as eight rounds from an AR-style rifle '
'The shooter fired as many as eight rounds from an AR-style rifle '

A security services sniper on a roof shot at least one, maybe two. I couldn't tell the difference in sound so that might say something about the weapon the assassin was using.

The pic on the left I've snipped and reposted below to show the almost horizontal bullet trail in the bottom right quadrant
Looks like he's wearing sneakers.
Depends on the clip size.
Noise wise it sounds like only 3 rounds were let off before Trump was heard to stop talking.
The video of the sniper seems to only show the assassin's shots.
The Sniper in the video I don't believe got a shot off.
Seems to react to the shots and tries to adjust his shot position to something further to his right.
Slowing it down, it looks like security services sniper on roof fired first. Probably saved Trump's life.

The red-head witness guy in the below BBC vid appears to be legit, in that he's not setting off my BS alarm from listening/watching him. He's one that appears to have warned security about the shooter.

A clearer image, two snipers.
He didn't get a shot off imo.
His calibre rifle would have blown the guys head off. Thus we wouldn't hear the three shots of the assassin which lead to Trump stopping talking as things happened.
A "round" is one bullet.

I think he might have got a shot off, it's small but there is some recoil imo.
That photo makes more sense.
We see the guy with the tripod in shot but he doesn't take the shot, he's the one adjusting his shot in the video to where the other guy potentially took the kill shot.

There's a image circulating of the dead shooter, it's very messy.
It can't go up in here.
We don't hear his gun fire in the audio imo.
Think we heard the assassins' shots.
I didn't think it was recoil, more him jumping to adjust his tripod.

Okay, we'll probably eventually have something confirmed.
Which is why I think we heard a smaller calibre gun shots in that videos audio.
Snipers use a larger caliber round.
