The US Secret Service has enhanced ex-President Donald Trump’s security following the attempt on his life at a rally in Pennsylvania, the agency’s Director Kimberly Cheatle said in a statement.
"In addition to the additional security enhancements we provided former President Trump’s detail in June, we have also implemented changes to his security detail since Saturday to ensure his continued protection for the [Republican Party’s] convention and the remainder of the campaign," the statement reads.
On July 14, the New York Post reported that Trump moves around the United States with only a barebones security detail, a far cry from the number of security personnel accompanying sitting heads of state. The former president's guards do not receive any resources from the US government to counter possible sniper attacks and provide him with air security.

I figured, LOL.
Whew. I feel better, now, with these guys on it.
🙃
I am not reassured....
There was one guy at the presser yesterday says the perp was outside the perimiter????
Outside the perimeter? That perimeter is is anything within eyesight of The President and a bit beyond.
How in the Ho Lee Phuk is that possible?
I’ve been to Trump rallies and snipers are everywhere, including in the hills surrounding.
Security is actually visible for miles before you even get to a rally venue.
I felt safe, as well, unconcerned for The President’s safety
Moreover, there was a helicopter circling the event
The building 20 feet behind the dead dude is actually one story higher and begs the question “Why wasn’t a team on top of those buildings?” We know the answer.
Moreover, there is a 90 foot water directly to the east and overlooking all the buildings where dead was and he would have been easily seen if a team was on that water tower.
It is only 100yrds to the east. https://www.google.com/maps/place/615+Whitestown+Rd,+Meridian,+PA+16001/@40.8585856,-79.9698802,577m/data=!3m1!1e3!4m6!3m5!1s0x88337d9ebe29308f:0x1b4bca6251cd761e!8m2!3d40.8585186!4d-79.9699773!16s%2Fg%2F11ckqj_ky9?entry=ttu
No one on building to secure it.
No one overlooking to secure it.
So… a guy just decides to show up at a rally and take a potshot at PDJT… and he looks around for a spot that wasn’t covered by USSS and… well whadaya know! He’s in luck. A handy barn roof with no-one on it. And his rifle happens to be sighted in for the distance to the stage.
Now, let’s just see if he can get up there with a rifle without being spotted. Well whaddaya know! Another lucky break! Wait… he was spotted and pointed out to security, Well whaddaya know! Three times lucky! Security blew it off.
Oops. His luck ran out. He was shot deader’n a doornail. Tsk, tsk. Too bad. Can’t question him now.
Gonna be lots of stuff out there
Fact is “it should have never happened “
That it did is inexplicable and no answer will be acceptable
Snipers have an Area of Operation
In that AO are Squares that they are responsible for scanning hostiles and intelligence
Each Square also has math notes for distance, elevation, declination, etc
This was not a slipup
Jill had many SS with her as she spoke. Since they lie so much I don’t believe them Secret Service Denies Diverting Resources to Jill Biden https://www.newsweek.com/secret-service-divert-trump-jill-biden-denial-1925058
Susan Crabtree of RealClearPolitics reported on social media that unnamed sources told her resources were diverted away from Trump to protect the first lady, who was also campaigning in Pennsylvania on Saturday.
Did I mention about 50 Hells Angels!
US Secret Service enhances Trump’s.
security cameras?.
About the best they can do
Go with private security.
Five ft five standing up and laying down!
Seems that they have been able to obtain several dozen more seeing-eye dogs...
That iconic picture is really a picture of Trump leading the blind Secret Service agents to safety as they hang on to him for dear life.
