He also gets the facts wrong about the change in the motorcade route. As we have already shown, there was no change. Elm street was the planned route all along.

He also ignores or is unaware of the many recreations done in the intervening years, recreation in which experienced shooters, but not trained snipers, successfully made the three shots with little or no problems.
