But what about the bomber? He could have taken out the VP-elect. Curious how she said she was at the Capitol at the time, but was really at the DNC. Also curious how the bomb there wasn't found before the VP went in the building, yet it was sitting next to a bench in front of the building with a lot of foot traffic and cars for like 17 hours. Wouldn't someone intent on destruction and death, place it in some of the plants right next to the building, so as not to be seen and possibly take down all or part of the building. Really interesting. Is it possible it wasn't there for 17 hours and it was known not to be live or a threat, therefore, no need for urgency to cordone off the area frantically once discovered? instead, they waited for someone to take a picture of it first. Something seems off.
