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.”

But there were a lot of shell casings on the roof! (/s)

I can’t believe TPTB, DS, or SS would be so incredibly stupid as to first deploy snipers on the day of the attempted assassination. If they were smart, they would have deployed snipers starting a month or two earlier to throw armchair sleuths off the trail.

And why do think they did that?

IMO it was to TAKE OUT CROOKS, whom they employed.

They let him shoot first. Why?

The American people are not that stupid—we know what it really was. We will not forget too.

That was to be sure the assassin would not survive to be questioned.
