I have been briefed by my team regarding what federal law enforcement is investigating as a possible assassination attempt of former President Trump today. A suspect is in custody, and I commend the work of the Secret Service and their law enforcement partners for their vigilance and their efforts to keep the former President and those around him safe. I am relieved that the former President is unharmed. There is an active investigation into this incident as law enforcement gathers more details about what happened. As I have said many times, there is no place for political violence or for any violence ever in our country, and I have directed my team to continue to ensure that Secret Service has every resource, capability and protective measure necessary to ensure the former President’s continued safety.
Now, contrast this with Harris’ tweet: I have been briefed on reports of gunshots fired near former President Trump and his property in Florida, and I am glad he is safe. Violence has no place in America.
Harris definitely has the weaker social media team. “Glad”?
Ain’t America great?
Uncle Joe didn’t write this statement on his own, he had help. Maybe AI.
Levin who worked for Reagan said Reagan woudl have DEMANDED answers within 48 hours as to why the SS failed to secure the property- and woudl have immediately put out a statement calling for increased security with an apology for the failure, and promise to never let it happen again
Biden and kamala just tweet nonsense-
Jason Chaffet (sp?) who worked 10 years ago to try to get stronger SS protection for people said that NOTHING has changed in 10 years- Failures all around- no changes after the failures- even though SS has received billions upon billions of $$ every year
Unacceptable!
Why won’t he give Trump the additional SS he needs?
Biden has the first-string handlers. President Harris will inherit them. Or rather, they will inherit her.
“ Routh was “pretty quiet” and “pretty compliant” after a Martin County sheriff’s traffic unit took him into custody on Interstate 95 one county to the north of Palm Beach, Aronberg said.”
It was a citizen who saw his license plate and reported it.
Local deputies caught and arrested him.
I think the feds would have let him get away.
Purposely or incompetence, we can only wonder.
[[and I have directed my team to continue to ensure that Secret Service has every resource, capability and protective measure necessary to ensure the former President’s continued safety.]]
BULL- this is the second FAILURE- Thank God that a SS agent happened to spot the rifle barrel and began firing- Thankfully an eyewitness had the forethought to take a photo of a fleeing man and his license plate number- but no way should that shooter have even made it onto the grounds in the first place- and a lack of resources is why he was able to- Like chaffets said- there are all kinds of things that can be done to increase the effectiveness- Dogs, Drones, more SS people, as well as a few other things he mentioned- Had biden truly ‘ordered his team to continue to ensure the SS has EVERY resource, capability and protective measure necessary needed”!!!
Trump needs to fire the USSS and hire his own security staff.
It is a good thing that democRATs F-up everything they try to do.
Other than Cheatle and the SS site administrator that was in chatge at Butler who I read “retired” (But gets full pension) no one has been fired or charged with a crime in the SS since the first assassination attempt on J13
There's no reason to expect competence when competence isn't the objective.
A Congressional investigation is required to find out who wrote that…
Yeah, he was supposed to deliver a statement, but probably couldn’t get him going.
Does CommieLa do it?
No, cuz she’s 3 sheets to the wind by 1700.
Unaccountability has consequences.
Both Harris and Biden will be back to saying Trump is Hitler by the end of this week, inspiring more violence from their ranks of loony leftists.
I’d be surprised if he even knows about it.
It was written by his team:
Themes:
sew doubt is was an assassination attempt
no place for political violence or any violence
making sure of Trump’s continued protection
of course all actions leading up to today run counter to the BS in the response
yes. we the people demand the GOP “vow” to “get to the bottom of it”. only then will know how serious the GOP is about putting on a meaningless yet stellar Kabuki Theater.
