Trump Assassination Attempt(s)

[YankeeVol]

They had control. Evidence is the Assassin was eliminated.
It appears they didn't exercise control timely. And from other's posts, the SS may have a return fire rather than shoot first SOP.

Which is the dumbest chit IF true.

And the SS is reaponsible bro....

And they only have so many resources, whether they're tasked for it or not.

What they could have done is pulled Orange from the stage, all of this was very avoidable... they failed.

If the bullet was one inch to the other direction, would it be a colossal failure?

The death of George Floyd sparked riots and unrest around the country. You don't think the assassination of a political figure like Trump would inspire at least an equal response? My guess would be an even bigger response. When people get angry, they lose their minds.

Which proves the Dims lose their sh!t over anything.

Im pretty sure multiple clear shots at an intermediate range is a colossal failure in the eyes of the SS.

Comparable resources is a disingenuous metric though. Comparing the risk for Mitt Romney in 2012 vs Donald Trump in 2024 is asinine....

I don’t know what more you want than the multiple posts I’ve made about the buck stopping with them, that it’s a professional failure, etc.

It’s not disingenuous. Good grief, Skip Bayless. It’s an off-the-top-of-my-head list of things that are unknown and go to whether/where the problem originated and how big the failure was.

You;re right on the beginning, but as soon as they saw him up there with anything or nothing... they should have pulled the Orange from the stage. From 100-200m with scopes you can easily see a rifle.

I said in my first post that I was surprised they didn’t get him down off the stage. Although after some thought, I’m not sure people climbing onto elevated platforms to get a better view is that uncommon.

They have nearly 10,000 employees and a budget in the tens of billions...

I added to my response a little, just prior to reading this. I agree with you and it’s going to be up to the majorities on both sides to ask themselves what we can do to run this country in a way that meets in the middle.

Absolutely! When we all sit down and just talk, we realize the majority of us are quite the same and just want to make country better. I believe cooler heads will eventually prevail, but as you alluded to, it needs to start with our candidates/elected majorities.

Ahh yea forgot about this jewel from the tolerant mostly peaceful left.

An "entire broadway play?" Your BS meter should be firing. It's not a broadway play at all. It's just some community theater weirdos who did a version of Julius Caesar where Caesar looked like Trump. It's in bad taste, but the guy misrepresented it to make it sound a lot worse than it is.

Says the guy who doesnt think the former POTUS being 1 inch away from getting his head blown off isnt a colossal failure of security...

 

[McDad]

Probably never seen the cinematic splendor of Showgirls, either.

I am completely out of touch on trashy cinema.

 

[n_huffhines]

And just below same tweet.

Maybe stop following this account. That's ASU's campus, so not Crooks.

Yes but only a small percentage of those work in the protective division. The rest are out there doing very important things like stopping financial crimes, you know, the same thing the FBI is doing.

 

[BowlBrother85]

I guess Judge Aileen Cannon saw the outpouring of sympathy for Trump as her cue to dismiss the classified documents case against him. There will be some blow back over this. The case against him was strong, and Cannon has clearly shown him favoritism.

 

[AirVol]

Shooter had help and training, imo. No one walks around with a rifle. I’d look into who owns the building, who owns the ladder, etc.

Ironic the FBI can’t access his cell phone either.

 

[LSU-SIU]

And they have to protect 100s if not 1000s of people some of which is 24x7.

I don;t think you guys are fully understanding the logistics here. Even carrying 20-30 SS guys 24x7 is a mammoth undertaking, you basically need triple plus back-end support. Most of its still going to be local enforcement.

The problem here... is very simple. They could have pulled Orange from the stage.

No more than the guy being found by police and missing because he rushed his shot makes it a success. But I think we’re getting closer to self-awareness if you’re relying on this type of appeal to emotion.

Literally from the post you quoted: I don’t know what more you want than the multiple posts I’ve made about the buck stopping with them, that it’s a professional failure, etc.

And there would be nothing suspicious about a guy climbing on the roof with a backpack.

You're trying awfully hard to make excuses for something that cannot be categorized as anything other than a colossal failure.

I don't think RT or anyone, including me, is making excuses about what occurred. I think we are saying there could be legitimate reasons for the event that have nothing to do with conspiracy or deviation from SOP.

I will absolutely agree what happened should not happen. But before we go scorched earth and burn the SS leadership and agents to the ground, we need to wait until the facts (especially the facts we aren't privy to) come out.

I dont believe that. Apples are notorious for hard to get into...

 

[McDad]

Especially if the local DA, Dick Golddinger, is to be believed by saying they had access to the building.

No point really, I just wanted to say Dick Golldinger again...

LOL.

None of us outgrew our middle school humor.

Had nothing to do with outpouring of sympathy. She stated that the appointment of special counsel violated the Constitution.

Judge Dismisses Classified Documents Case Against Trump

Judge Aileen Cannon ruled that the entire case should be thrown out because the appointment of the special counsel who brought the case, Jack Smith, had violated the Constitution. Mr. Smith’s office said he would appeal.

Saw this just now. , Sorry this is such BS.

Exactly. Obviously, it wasn't a good day for the SS, but I think some people are out of control with their conclusions here. There is so much that isn't known.

Well, of course, she is going to cite a different reason. She could have dismissed this case for that reason months ago, however.

This will be heavily scrutinized .... Her reasoning is a crock.
