Still, it puts a lot more weight on the folks who screwed up by not putting someone on the roof ahead of time, and not identifying the assassin as he walked from his van across a very large field to a ladder in an alcove that only someone who had placed it there before would have known the location of.
” only someone who had placed it there before would have known the location of.”
Right. This kid was not local. How did he know there was a ladder there? Did he scope the site out in advance? Or did he have help? I don’t have a beef with the sniper, unless he saw the shooter before he fired and did nothing.
He's the most confident and authoritative expert I have heard yet. He would not be drawn out on whether it was conspiracy or mere incompetence that the shooter had easy access to the factory roof only 140 yards from Trump.
But that is one thing everyone agrees one - that the shooter was in the position he was, was a MAJOR breakdown in Secret Service protection.
Yes, There needed to be more personnel, however … the responsibility falls on the those who were on duty. Not on who was not on duty.
I saw a Local Person on video saying that the Ladder is permanently affixed to the Building.
I also saw the same thing in one of the Threads here on FR.
