I've tried to do the same, but obviously subtlety isn't something you or Dope understand.

This should be good.

There major screw up here is probably the state or local police who were assigned to keep that building complex secure and failed at that job. We already know that security outside of the seating area was delegated to local (state, county, or city) police. The Secret Service does not have sufficient personnel available to handle every aspect of security at even a smallish event like this. This is standard procedure, even for the sitting President. Secret Service makes the overall plan, but delegates parts of the execution of the plan to local assistance.

Learn not to contradict yourself in the same paragraph; you'll take fewer L's that way.

In this case, you're correct that the SS make the overall plan...because they're the ones responsible for protecting the dignitary.

They delegate to the locals...but they're in charge. And they left an open rooftop (with a tiny pitch on it) within an easy rifle shot of the guy they're supposed to be protecting. I don't know why you're choosing to die on this particular hill but boy, did you pick a bad one.

Cnn is actually doing a reasonable job for once: https://www.cnn.com/2024/07/16/us/trump-rally-secu...

Sometimes F ups are just that: F ups.

I know you're desperate to blame this on the Secret Service and the Biden administration. Nothing could make a MAGAite happier than that. Unless it included blaming a woman in the process. But I just don't think that's the case here.

You're going to get super tired carrying all this water. But you do you.
