A gunman who tried to kill Donald Trump was able to fly a drone and get aerial footage of the western Pennsylvania fairgrounds shortly before the former president was set to speak there, law-enforcement officials briefed on the matter said, further underscoring the stunning security lapses ahead of Trump’s near assassination.

Unfortunately, there's being plain, old incompetent dumb, and being deliberately-on-purpose dumb. I'm going with the second.
We all know it was allowed. 3 shooters, 3 different angles. We all know it was allowed. Not even SS, but homeland personnel? Damn.
How may hours before the event? The same day or a previous day? Be specific.
“I am reflexively skeptical of conspiracy theories...”
Why?
Everytime Schumer, adam schiff, and Pelosi get together, you don’t think they are planning something evil?
Criminal conspiracy is encoded into our common law. Were the jurists back then wild-eyed extremists?
The term “conspiracy theory” was cooked up by the CIA long ago as a perjorative term to scare people away from using their minds to question strange things that happen, like the attempted assassination of Trump after there was no security provided, and when told about the assassin on the roof with a gun Trump was not stopped from stepping into the X.
Now, you must confess with your mouth and believe in your heart that the Secret Service was trying their best to protect Trump and that all those people made all those mistakes simultaneously just by sheer accident.
Nothing to see. If you disagree, then your are probably a racist and a white supremacist and you have to prove you are not.
You could have brought a six-year-old to that spot and asked where the security should be stationed.
Lee Harvey Crooks. Deep State mole.
Good point but it also could be that the cop was lying about having a gun pointed at him.
A friend told me, her conference call for the 100 senators where she only answered 4 questions was made from a room at the convention. Not surprising if true because she was there just a couple hours later.
I used to work just outside the fence of Dobbins ARB, mainly on an antenna measurement tower that overlooked the runway and other parts of the base. When the President’s plane was due in there were always agents out there at least the day before making sure we had the gates and access to the tower locked up where no one could get up there.
To me, a location like that so close and unguarded had to be either colossally inept (VERY un SS) OR planned. And I think what clinches that thought for me was the Director’s answer about the ‘sloped roof.’
“Accountability or rebellion!” That should be the watchword.

Democrats are ALWAYS more aggressive than Republicans.
Anyone remember Benghazi? Each Republican used the first 50% of their time saying how much they admire Hillary and thanking her for he sacrifices! It continued through the whole hearing!
Dems opened up that hearing by saying - Death is part of Life.
Republicans just voted a week ago not to defund the Swamp of any of their tools and lawfare.
Yeah, my money is on DEI incompetence.
There were no lapses. Any happening at the rally was intentional.
Holy S! That deserves its own thread.
Somebody tried that on Chavez in Venezuela, iirc.
.
Absolutely!
Why was the assassin treated as a VIP?
.
You need your critical thinking skills fixed. Even just basic observation skills fixed.

True. It’s not hard to believe the cop went up the ladder just to see if Crooks was doing all right. After all - they knew he was there.
Crooks did not muff the shot.
He hit Trump.
The only reason Trump isn't dead, is because he turned his head at the last nano-second.
Divine intervention IMV.
