Ok, as always when you want to find the truth, follow the money. Who benefits most from this amateurish assassination attempt? DJT and anyone who has a reason to bet on him (e.g., Putin). Trump is now a folk hero, fearless in the face of mortal danger. A professional sniper would have adjusted his aim once Trump turned his head, there was plenty of time between the head turn and the four or five shots fired, esp. over the short distance of ~150 yards. The first few shots could have been a warning to Trump to remain still. The shot that scratched the ear would have been a professional master shot, not something the 20-year-old dunce could have pulled off. There maybe was a second person on the roof, the real shooter? After the deed, he immobilized the young man, left the weapon, and slithered away. Would explain DJT's fearlessness, too.

"Who benefits from his injury or death?". What I wonder a few days out. Wouldn't you have to be an expert to just hit the outside of his ear?

Just a graze of the ear would be an attempt, but would not really hurt you. trump would benefit from that.

That shooting is what he needed to put him in the running as guaranteed.
