Yeah, it seems maliciously compliant on behalf of many on the USSS, who were not Trump’s regular detail—those were assigned to Jill on this day, for incredibly stupid reasons according to Bongino (playing politics over properly regarding the relative threat matrices.)
Yeah, they do “let” things happen quite often. Partly, I just want to accept they’re wholly incompetent, as I generally view all of government.
I’m with you on that last, and “Never ascribe to malice that which is adequately explained by incompetence.” And we had 8 years of Obama plus nearly 4 of Biden pushing DEI promotions.
On the other hand, we’ve had 8+ years of malice directed at Trump, since early in the first campaign.
It is quite a conundrum.
