    Ok, no LEO occupied the roof with a premium line of sight to the podium.

    Ok, no drone, helo with FLIR, or countersniper spotted a guy on the roof with a premium line of sight to the podium.

    What about some kind of LEO cordon to prevent a guy from carrying an AR15 to within 150 yards of the podium?

    Anyone else take issue with #2 above?

    It's tragic that rallygoers were hit, but not Trump? If the same thing had happened to Biden, even if Biden had not been touched, the emotional trauma of being shot at would be cause for leftists to call it tragic for decades to come.

    It's just more evidence that many take Trump's toughness for granted, and allow a double-standard against him.

    Watertower looks like good spot for a lookout. Dual cranes holding Flag and loudspeakers look like good spot for a couple cameras.

    How much manpower do you want? The circumference of a circle with a radius of 150m is a little over 1/2mi….~2800 linear ft. Putting one man ever 6 feet is 472 people just for the exterior cordon.
    1 guy. Looking at the one building with a perfect view of Trump.


    There was not ~2800 linear feet of building.


    There was one building.

    Dox her

    not really… her own stupidity is her punishment for life… hope she has a long and hard one

    I hope she receives a visit from USSS that causes her panties to become brown stained.

    How many times have you done this mission?

    Before you “but common sense”, ask yourself this: swap Trump with Gavin Newsome or Kamala. Still this passionate? Don’t lie.

    The fact a moron like me can see an unobserved building 130 yards from a protectee and see it as a problem, should give you pause.

    It is common sense. It's like getting hit by a train. You know where the train is going to be. It's not going to just randomly go zig zagging down the street.

    You know there's potential risk of a sniper.

    So you leave an easily accessed building with perfect LOS not only unguarded? But unobserved?

    Why would i care about gavin newsome. He's not umder the ever watchful eye of the pepsico sorry, the Secret Service.

    why do insist on carrying this water for the DHS?
