Update --- The Day Trump Was Nearly Assassinated Was the First Time Secret Service Counter-Snipers Were Deployed to Protect Him in 2024 Presidential Campaign

It was revealed that the day former President Donald Trump narrowly escaped an assassination attempt was also the first time Secret Service counter snipers were deployed to protect him during the 2024 campaign.

The U.S. Secret Service held a critical news briefing on Friday to address its “colossal security failure” at the Butler, Pennsylvania Trump rally, in light of the attempted assassination of former President Donald Trump.

“Can you confirm that this was the first 2024 campaign event that counter-sniper teams were assigned to the former president?” CBS News reporter asked Rowe.

“As part of their advance, they identify those lines of sight, those high ground concerns, and there’s a division of labor,” said Rowe.

“With respect to whether or not this was the first time, it was. It was the first time Secret Service counter snipers were deployed to support the former president’s details.”

Well, they simply weren’t needed before. For the Pennsylvania rally they were needed. After all, “DEAD MEN TELL NO TALES”.

They wanted to make sure the assassin was taken out after he finished

They were there to take out the shooter after he took the shots, which is exactly what they did and it’s like it never happened.

The Deep State tried to murder Trump and damned near succeeded - but for God protecting him in the last fraction of a millisecond. They had a cover-up in place, and they wanted it on film to show their power and to demoralize those opposed to them. TREASON! TREASON! TREASON!

The simplest explanation is that this was the first time they tried to assassinate President Trump, and they needed the counter snipers to kill the patsy before he could talk.

It wasn’t a counter sniper team so much as it was the patsy kill team.

About the only thing that went well for the plotters that day.

And they knew exactly where to point. How lucky is that?

They weren’t deployed to protect him, they were deployed to kill off the shooter after the deed was done.

A 2LT providing a platoon in the defense could have done a better job than the USSS. No excuse, any SS agent in charge of this goat f##k should have been fired already.

The patsy was probably not the only one firing at Trump. Who knows if he even got a shot off. But they needed a patsy either way.
