Drea de Matteo makes bold claim that Trump's assassination attempt was an 'inside job'

Actor Drea de Matteo has revealed her theory about Donald Trump's assassination attempt and why 'there's Trump derangement syndrome'.

On July 13 at a rally held in Butler, Pennsylvania, shots were fired in what is believed to have been an assassination attempt on former president of the US, Donald Trump's life.

However, despite footage backing up the incident and the FBI also speaking out, some have questioned the portrayed version of events.

Footage showed the moment Trump's hand flew up to his right ear as the sound of bullets whizzed past, the 78-year-old later emerging with a bloodied ear and taking to social media to speak out about the incident and his injuries.

The FBI later identified the shooter as 20-year-old Thomas Matthew Crooks and the US Secret Service released a statement confirming a shooting incident had taken place. Eyewitnesses spoke out and others were reported injured, with one member of the audience, 50-year-old Corey Comperatore, killed.

However, not everyone was convinced by the portrayed version of events. HBO's Insecure actor Amanda Seales branded the incident 'more staged than a Tyler Perry production of Madea Runs for President' and other conspiracy theorists looked to a woman captured in the footage who appeared pretty relaxed amid the chaos.

And the latest person to speak out is Emmy-award-winning actor Drea de Matteo - best known for her role in TV drama The Sopranos.

The former actor turned OnlyFans content creator told The Mail Online she thinks the assassination attempt was 'clearly an inside job'.

She explained: "I think this attempt was clearly an inside job. All these kids that are saying 'I can’t believe he missed'. A lot of people don't have a clue what's really happening and that's why there's Trump derangement syndrome.

"It's the level of propaganda and the twisting of information... there's no truth out there anymore. And if you want it, you must carry on you have to pick up every rock in sight."

Despite sharing her own theory, she urged people to not 'follow any celebrities' and not 'have any idols' and for everyone to 'make [their] own decisions'.

Reflecting on Tenacious D musician Kyle Gass' comment not to 'miss Trump next time,' de Matteo said people should do the 'work' and 'know what [they] speak of' and 'why [they're] condemning this person'.

"And maybe lower your f**king voice when you're condoning murder," she adds.

The actor noted she's 'not trying to be self-righteous' but 'everybody needs to learn more about what's really going on and then form their own opinions' instead'.

She resolved: "Everybody is so tied into hearing what other celebrities have to say, because somehow, they're a trusted voice.

"And I don't know why because they're just f**king actors. A lot of them are super f**king entitled Hollywood folks that don't really do their homework. And that upsets me."

However, de Matteo did resolve on a more positive note, saying: "I mean, they the left, and I am on the left, but I am embarrassed,

"I'm also embarrassed of my country. And I'll wear an American flag all day because I am a real f*****g patriot. But I am so embarrassed by the blood on the hands of this country at this point and the karmic overload of just dishonesty and greed.

"It's gone so far, but I really do believe in the people... I believe that we can make America great again."
