The Steam account previously reported to have belonged to would-be Trump assassin Thomas Crooks was not owned by him, according to a federal law enforcement source.

Original reports from a source inside an FBI briefing to lawmakers suggested the 20-year-old Crooks wrote in a post earlier this month, "July 13 will be my premier, watch as it unfolds. the original reporting was from multiple sources inside a briefing for lawmakers. Three senate offices confirmed all of the information, two additional offices confirmed parts.

The game's protagonist, Dick "Rock-Hard" Johnson – "the best bodyguard money can buy" – is sworn to protect "the most hated presidential candidate of all time Ronald Rump," the game's description reads.

"It was the supposed fame of doing something outrageous and infamous. He was trying to make himself look and feel bigger than how he viewed his life as insignificant,"

— Retired FBI agent and behavior analysis expert Jim Clemente told Fox News Digital

"Liberal media has rigged the election and tarnished his glowing public image, now they are trying to end his life. You need to leap, flip, fling, role and many other verbs to get in between Rump and certain death," the summary continues.

In the game, Johnson has to defend against more than 50 "challenging" assassination attempts as he shadows Rump around the world.

Retired FBI agent and behavior analyst expert Jim Clemente told Fox News Digital that politics didn’t motivate Crooks.

"It was the supposed fame of doing something outrageous and infamous," the expert said. "He was trying to make himself look and feel bigger than how he viewed his life as insignificant."

FBI investigators appear to have come to a similar conclusion. In Wednesday’s Senate briefing, it was disclosed that the FBI found no evidence of a particular ideology and no one interviewed reported Crooks discussing politics. 

He had two cellphones – a primary phone recovered from the scene and a secondary one retrieved from his home. The primary device had only 27 contacts and the FBI is in the process of interviewing each of them.

Immediately after Crooks opened fire Saturday at a campaign rally in Pennsylvania, Steam users began noting the Mr. President! game’s sudden real world parallels in a forum.

"Too real for my liking," wrote one gamer. "Predicted events, huge," wrote another. 

"Lol, ok, it actually happened," yet another chimed in. One player expressed surprise that the game hadn’t been removed from the platform five days after the attempted assassination. 

A spokesperson for Valve, Steam's parent company, didn’t immediately return a request for comment.

Crooks had a very limited online footprint, but had an account on the encrypted social media platform Discord, according to authorities.

In Saturday’s attack, Crooks grazed the former president’s ear, killed volunteer fire chief Corey Comperatore and seriously wounded two other bystanders before snipers took him out.
