The secret service had a MASSIVE failure today.
NO ONE should be able to get on a rooftop within 1000 yards of a presidential candidate. From what the red headed guy that was interviewed by BBC said... they had a sniper and spotter looking at the roof, but they couldn't see the backside of it due to their elevation I guess. So the guy climbs up from the backside and pops his head over the ridge and fires off a few quick shots and then get smoked by the snipers and spotters. Seems like it would have been easy to cover the backside of the roof but who knows?

I would think there is no way in h.ll that an ordinary citizen could get on a roof at a Presidential Rally with an unobstructed view of the President. Without some inside help that is. You might be surprised. When I was kid I walked right into a Ronald Reagan speech in Montgomery and just wandered around everywhere unchecked. I was a kid and not threatening but nobody really even looked at me. I was kind of invisible it seemed. I never been to a presidential rally but you would be surprised what you can do and where you can go with a 6 foot ladder and a set of blueprints, sometimes I just shake my head at where I go and just get to walk around.

How does someone even get onto a roof, within a mile of something like this with all of today’s technology??? A simple drone, helicopter, or anyone half ass paying attention would of had to of been able to see that shooter, if the picture of the guy dead on a roof is the actual photo Yep something doesn’t add up. They use advance teams. Nothing, and I mean NOTHING , is left to chance. Lot of preparation. I participated in a detail as part of my old agency when Biden was VP. Very strange the counter sniper team didn’t take shooter out before he got a shot off. That building would have been locked down so no one could get on roof.

The shot wouldn’t have been taken from that roof. Too exposed. That guy wasn’t “the” shooter. He’s merely the fall guy, prob room temp before he was planted on the roof. That shot would have been taken from concealment and whether it was the wind, Trump moving, or the hand of God…the bullet did not find its mark.

How many secret service do they have available for these rallies? That may have something to do with it.

Look at the graphic. Secret Service is going to have a difficult time explaining why that spot was not covered. Its the most obvious spot to secure first. https://x.com/MarioNawfal/status/1812297015617032540

Well the b team left an elevated position 300 yards directly in front of the president on the podium. I can't believe in that much incompetence, which says it was deliberate
