Perhaps, but at 130 yards it is an easy shot. You would not even need a scope. I can do 3 inch groups with open sights at that distance.
The real question is why was not every rooftop within sniper distance not covered and or observed. This is massive incompetence. Trump probably has inner ear damage. That slug but 1 inch from his eardrum gives off a sonic boom pressure wave.
Man power only so many SS to protect a former president
Because Jack ruby was known to the Dallas PD and had the run of the place
I've read several books on the JFK assassination and the LEOs do not make a good impression.
The Founders would be ashamed to see this, even though they predicted it could happen.
They were realists in that regard.
And it is very alarming to see it being done out in the open like that.
Well it looks like Donaldo Maximus was out playing golf this morning. What a guy!
This is the big lie. “Oh it impossible to guard...”. Complete lie
There is utterly no excuse for a obvious sniper perch, with ladder access, within 150 yards of one the world top high value targets, to not be covered. It gets even more damming that it had both sight lines on the speaker platform and the egress route to the exit car. At a bare minimum you secure the ladder with either a uniform office or render it unusable well before and during the event.
The Sec Service owns the site. It is their responsibility, no matter what assets, local, state, federal, their own, they use to secure the site.
Just more shameless lying and obfuscation from the Biden Regime
Love it, a giant “nose thumbing” at the left.
“I’m still here!”
Why? He'll either be granted an Appeal Bond (more likely by the second, as this is out of Merchan's hands now) or SCOTUS will approve an emergency writ of habeus corpus before Trump has left the building.
Well we were texted a pic that purported to show Trump playing golf this morning but then Lindsay Graham was being interviewed on some show and I was astounded to see him almost crying.
He said Trump was his friend and how great a person he is and they were supposed to play golf at 8:30 AM this morning but they didnt. He was talking about how Trump was going to help him with his golf swing. I was wondering what have they done with the real Lindsay Graham? 😉
Hmmm... Linda Graham is up to something.
Reminds me slightly of Kristol tweeting about the train accident before it happened.
Only this time it’s putting up a façade to keep appearances.
“Oh, we didn’t knooooow” and all that.
Willing to bet that Linda had this scheduled beforehand so he could offer official condolences from the deep state only problem with his interview was Trump is still alive.
Too bad for Linda and crew.
Hope he keeps his lipstick moist.
Very well said and very sad.
And you would have been right about the nuts part either way :)
Wish I wasn’t.
No doubt about it!
But, without expecting perfection, I think it would still be useful to get Bennie Thompson in a public hearing and grill him about his bill to totally strip DJT of his SS protection detail.
Was it entirely his idea? If not who suggested it to him?
Is he fine with the idea that a former POTUS and his family would be left to fend for themselves against all the malevolent
actors in the world who might hold a grudge against him?
IMO he should be pressed hard in a public forum to answer all of those questions and more.
Keystone Kops.
Confederacy of Dunces.
Was Prince RPOTUS’ pre-Presidency security guy?
That guy was great.
“Was Prince RPOTUS’ pre-Presidency security guy?”
Not sure, but I don’t think so. I think that was another guy. Prince basically is a highly skilled badass “mercenary” , and has been on War Room often. He was interviewed this morning by Charlie Kirk.
