Whistleblowers have come forward to allege that the Secret Service was understaffed at former president Donald Trump’s campaign rally in Butler, Pa., where a would-be assassin’s bullet wounded his right ear, because of the NATO summit in Washington, D.C., that concluded days earlier.

Nope. Not buying it. Jill Biden caused the short-staffing.
Time to privatize the Secret Service. Terrible track record the past 60 years. JFK. Reagan. Now Trump.
Another excuse?
Flimsy, at best.
Apparently, the previous ones aren’t sticking.
What next? Agents were assigned to watch the oceans rise as the glaciers melt?
Nah. I’m sure it was because dogs ate their homework.
THE NATO CONFERENCE WAS OVER! This is CYA
Understaffed because they were sent to “protect” Trump.
They have more excuses than an eight year old caught smoking a Marlboro
OK … mmm hmmm …. yeah …. what am I missing here???
They’ve got as many excuses as Hillary does, as to why she lost in 2016.
Presidential candidates should get block grants to hire their own security beholden only to them. The Secret Service will not and cannot fulfill its original mission due to it being politicized.
Planned...intentional...blown. The coverup is in full play.
You betchum!
This was an orchestrated assassination attempt.
All leftist satanists should have their Ives turned upside down and made miserable.
NATO summit ended Wed, July 10
But they said Jill Biden was given extra agents pulled away because Trump was only a former President, had not yet officially nominated as the official GOP candidate until the convention AND the sitting President always gets more protection.
Next they’ll say the agents “had a cold” and “had jet lag.”
Along with those tricky gently sloping roofs. Scary.
As a soon to be former candidate says “Aw, c’mon. Anyway.”
My Goggle map says 263 miles from DC to Butler, PA. Apparently they were going by oxcart.
This is my Mom’s theory cause I keep on telling her this was an ordered hit..she says no it wasn’t..that this is how it went down..the Iran threat, it was legit, they knew, Biden and the DHS they knew, but decided F it, we wont tell Trump, we wont tell the campaign and we wont give them added security..so if someone goes and offs Trump, fine, we will just blame Iran for it easy peasy..Trump survived, he was NOT supposed to move his head, he lived, so now they are screwed, that is why they are literally BEGGING Biden to drop out when last week they said the polls look good for Biden and he has the election in the bag, their Plan B failed..that’s why Cheatle cant testify, she cant say “Yeah they knew of the threat but figured if Iran kills Trump its win/win”
If the sharp-shooters in the building had just been on top of the building that was left unsecured, this couldn’t have happened.
Or if they had drones.
Or if they had kept Trump hidden while they knew there was a shooter on that roof.
Or if the SS sharp-shooters on the roof behind Trump who had the shooter in their sights had shot the would-be assassin in the 50 seconds before he shot at Trump, instead of after.
Or....
Lack of manpower did not cause this to happen.
