Trump Assassination Attempt Brings Presidential Protector’s History of Failures Back into View

With reports of Trump’s attempted assassination today at a rally in Pennsylvania, less than a week after Joe Biden told his elite donors that he needed to “put Trump in the crosshairs” the possibility exists that Biden is also signaling to the Secret Service and bodyguards around Trump that they should assist in the murder.

Reports are coming out that the shooter was in easy view of Trump from the roof of a nearby structure. This is a location that the Secret Service would have investigated and controlled access to prior to the event, again making it suspicious that this event happened.

Witnesses claim they alerted the Secret Service to a man on the roof with a rifle and they did nothing until the assassination started.

JUST IN: A guy outside the rally saw the shooter crawling on a roof and attempted to warn police and the Secret Service.

"We noticed a guy bear crawling on the roof with a rifle."

Not good. GOP to compose a strongly worded letter, I’m sure. We might be lucky to get that much.

The FBI completely missed this guy.

Another spectacular failure.

Clowns.

People need to be reminded that the character played by Kevin Costner in The Bodyguard was completely fictional. 100% crap. Same goes for Special Agent Starling in Silence of the Lambs. Complete Hollywood fantasy.

  1. Were some of the Secret Service complicit in the assassination attempt?
  2. How did they allow someone access to the rooftop?
  3. How did a man carrying a rifle gain entry to the venue?
  4. Why were the Secret Service SLOW to respond to citizens who spotted the would-be assassin, minutes before the shots?

I'm not ruling it out, but I'm not ready to go there yet. It's only been hours. I'll let it play out for a few days. See what they share-and how they share it. What the media talking points are.

DEVELOPING…Shooter found dead on rooftop with vantage point to stage.

Secret Service tasks counter assault teams to cover ALL vantage points — rooftops most obvious.

Counter assault teams are outsourced professionals. Unlikely they make these mistakes, even “B” team tasked to cover Trump.

Glaring error or intentional overlook. Confirmed with former CA team organizer and trainer.

While massive errors are possible, plausible intentional overlook of rooftop is more likely with CA team assignments given by SS. Who makes those possible? Deep State Intel Community?

President Biden, July 8, 2024:
“We’re done talking about the debate, it’s time to put Trump in a bullseye.”

“I have one job, and that’s to beat Donald Trump. I’m absolutely certain I’m the best person to be able to do that. So, we’re done talking about the debate; it’s time to put Trump in a bullseye,” Biden said. He added, “We can’t go another day, another day, without explaining what he’s doing, and we have to go after him.”

1. very unlikely. If true then we have a serious situation on our hands.
2.
3. I think that he was outside of the venue.
4. Probably trying to assess the situation.

I am willing to give them the benefit of the doubt.

Agreed. At least something tonight so that we know that they are engaged and working on it asap. Then a promise of a follow up tomorrow morning sharp with all of the details.

The witness I saw interviewed said the shooter was 200 or 250 yards from Trump. There’s no way the secret service wouldn’t have that area covered. People were pointing the shooter out to police a few minutes before the shots were fired. It’s odd that the shooter was killed right after he fired several shots. Why wasn’t he killed before he fired?

Yep. Republicans are cowardly and moronic. Democrats are predatory and evil. That is why I registered with the Constitution Party a few years back. It was about time I recognized how irrelevant I and this Republic have become.

Maybe Jim Jordan will hold a hearing to get to the bottom of what went wrong.

BINGO. Texas Book Repository, Part 2.
