It’s no sillier than any other false flag attack. They might not have cared if they killed him, either. Trump as a martyr and a more predictable guy in charge has a lot of appeal for many on the right.
Do we know he shot real bullets, anyway? If you’re planning on your patsy getting shot, one of the many benefits of that is that you might not get the type of investigation you’d have if you’re going to charge the guy with a crime. Maybe you have a second shooter and give your patsy blanks.
I’m not saying no bullets were fired. I’m asking if we know the bullet that killed the firefighter were from Crooks’ gun.
