The Secret Service identified the rooftop next to Trump’s Butler, Pennsylvania event as a security vulnerability days before the rally according to a new report by NBC News.
The agents failed to secure the building so a man with a rifle was able to climb up to the roof, position his scope, and fire several shots at President Trump.
A bullet grazed Trump’s right ear. Two rally attendees were wounded. One Trump supporter was fatally shot.
President Trump told former White House physician Dr. Ronny Jackson that a last millisecond head tilt saved his life after a gunman opened fire on him from an elevated position at his Pennsylvania rally.

The police and Secret Service knew for around 10 minutes that the shooter had breached security, had a rifle and was setting up to try to assassinate President Trump.
There are credible but as of yet unconfirmed reports that the over watch marksman had eyes on the shooter for over three minutes waiting for authorization to take him down that never came.
It's confirmed that the police were also aware of the shooter and that a police officer actually went on the roof to confront the shooter but retreated when the shooter pointed the rifle at him.
maybe they can fire up one of those new fangled Q-Bit computers to calculate odds for them, cause that’s what it’d take
or he knew...
Yes.
By who?
The individuals, except for the share belonging to whoever was in command of this detail, on site on duty this day likely had very little to do with the failure.
This is orchestrated by those higher up by pulling the regular team and apparently not brining in anyone else.
This whole forum is degenerating into the kind of person that jumps the counter and attacks the kid that puts the pickles on the burger because the price went up. He has nothing to do with anything, focus on the problem.
Butler County DA says otherwise….
Holy crap
Is that really him?
And, he just happened to pick the only rally where they mixed up security?!
I have not heard about SS catching and disarming anybody who showed up at any previous Trump rally with a gun?!
If it were just lack of security, then, either it had been just normal practice to mix stuff up by SS all the time, or it had to be planned?!
As hours transpire and we all think about this, there is NO way this wasn’t planned - by our own government. NO WAY.
We’re in a bad state.
They gave it the old college try!
Once they learned they could sell Covid, Ukraine, and then Weekend at Joe’s - shi+s off the rails.
Think. You’re a cop and an a-hole on a roof top has a rifle and is likely gonna shoot something. You climb the ladder spot the subject. “Drop the weapon” you holler. He starts to turn. Boom, boom, boom. Triple tap shooter down. Damn it ain’t rocket science. WTF?
And Trump’s main SS detail was exhausted from seven day work weeks and sent to Pittsburgh to protect FLOTUS.
ASU working to identify man yelling 'Slash Republican throats' in viral on-campus video
The video is from February 2020, but he could have been visiting the school as a prospective student after his graduation in 2022. Looks like him to me.
Butler County guy will either get a job as A CEO or Director at a Fortune 500 business or catch a terrible case of suicide.
& I was just looking at the rally area & where the counter sniper team was setup..behind the Trump stage
How did those guys not see him??
There were people on the ground, with video that were literally pointing out to LE there was a guy climbing up on the roof!
Something went so wrong here..on purpose?
“There are credible but as of yet unconfirmed reports that the over watch marksman had eyes on the shooter for over three minutes waiting for authorization to take him down that never came.”
Yes. What IS certain is the video shows the police officer had acquired the target and had in his scope. It takes time to acquire the target and aim. He took him out instantly only after he shot at Trump. Based on that video, there is zero doubt he had his scope and aim in him well before he fired at Trump.
And, he just happened to pick the only rally where they mixed up security?! yup, that too...
[so you’re telling me the shooter just happened to pick the ONLY building NOT under surveillance... is that it???]
Yes. It is extraordinarily-difficult to view this as just pure coincidence and bad luck.
Holy sh#tfire! Well I guess he’s not a republican. FOX keeps saying he was a registered republican. The van he had was full of explosives and IEDs. He’s been radicalized. Didn’t his parents wonder why he had this stuff in his van? Or was someone else from AZ there that provided the van? PLUS, why is the FBI wasting the weekend on unlocking his phone? I’m sure he had a computer too, so what’s on his computer? The regime’s FBI is more than compromized.
