The shooter was mostly peaceful
Complete failure by the Secret Service. The previous job of the SS head? He was an executive at PepsiCo.
The SS agent had the shooter in his sights, looked up, and only fired after the shooting.
The Secret Service joins the FBI in credibility.
He's not the President folks. Trump is the former President
Not saddened at all.
10:02, let's not tell partial truths as a way to sway public opinion. Let's tell the whole truth and let the populace make judgments, having all facts available.
The director of the Secret Service, Kimberly Cheatle (a she, not a he), did serve as senior director of global security at PepsiCo from 2019 to 2022. This followed a nearly 25-year career as a Secret Service agent, a tenure during which she also served as deputy assistant director of the agency and assistant director of protective operations. In other words, she was not some random corporate executive plucked from PepsiCo and thrust into her current position.
Did the Secret Service drop the ball today? Quite possibly — or even likely. But comments like yours that obfuscate parts of the truth simply to further an argument are disingenuous and unhelpful. There will be plenty of valid points of criticism that can likely be directed at the Secret Service in the wake of this event. Yours is simply not one of them.
What's your point, 10:16 p.m.? I don't see anyone here saying he is the president.

Soon to be the second coming of Grover Cleveland
10:16 Former President Trump is provided SS protection the rest of his life & family as well I believe. All former sitting Presidents are still referred to as President out of RESPECT! You should be on your knees praying for the dead attendee and injured others! God Bless DJT and the USA!
PLEASE put these high-risk public figures behind bullet resistant polycarbonate shields, like at presidential inaugurations. EVERY TIME they are speaking in public like today.
The shooter was a NeverTrump Republican. Everyone forgets about that group still exists.
Thank God he is alright. May God be with the families of those injured and killed, as well as with the president's family.
Gotten a few posts celebrating the attempt or mourning its failure. Not approving those type of comments so don't even try.
The actual conservative/GOP party is the biggest threat to the cult of Trump. Trump isn’t a conservative.
Trump authorized Gofundme for all victims linked above.
No fear the FBI and SS will investigate the matter and find that all procedures were followed. I could write the report now.
" Trump isn’t a conservative." That is true, but the thing Trump has most going for him is he ain't Joe Biden. Biden, and whoever else is calling the shots, are killing this nation.
I used to make fun on conspiracy theorists, but I guess I am one now.
Predict the left goes after Biden with the bullet next. They will frame some nut job Trump supporter and martyr him, polarize the base and get Newsome on the ticket.
It makes me feel insane to even acknowledge how little faith I have in our entire government but this is a clown show and there is no denying the limitless depth of depravity we are living in.
The Washington Post reports police had an 86 second warning that someone was on the roof. That’s 86 seconds to take him out OR, get Trump off the stage. Start the stopwatch on your phone and see how long that is. SS could have shielded Trump in under 5 seconds and had him off the stage in under 10. Huge communications failure on top of everything else.
@7:38am - Open carry is legal in PA. The shooter did nothing illegal until he fired.
These are the gun laws yall want. This is what you get.
@11:12 AM - You obviously are choking on the progressive kool-aid. It is already ILLEGAL TO SHOOT SOMEONE, so it doesn't matter if PA is open carry or not.
@11:12 AM - You didn't mention "gun shows." Missed opportunity for a leftist progressive anti-2A shill.
Oh, shooting someone/at someone is already a serious felony. Are you so stupid to believe that making open carry illegal would prevent a shooting? Yep, you obviously are that stupid.
@11:12 AM - Open carry in Los Angeles was illegal when Sirhan Sirhan murdered RFK. See how those laws work? Murder was obviously illegal and that law didn't stop him.
It was illegal to murder JFK, and those laws didn't stop whoever murdered him.
But keep drinking the progressive Marxist kool-aid.
@11:12 AM "These are the gun laws yall want. This is what you get. "
Yep, it's that pesky U.S. Constitution thing again, comrade.
