Even with blood on his face, moments after the incident, he was reassuring us that he was all right. His thoughts were of us - ours are of him. He knows as surely as not that we were ALL in the crosshairs with him.

An awful lot of coincidences happened here. Way too many. And if it were not a government operation is it possible to be incompetence on a scale of this magnitude? If that is indeed the case the only thing I can think of is the Sniper looking at the gunman and holding his fire was not sure he was friend or foe. This will be the narrative. The lack of communication between the different law enforcement factions present. It happens all the time and has never been fixed. Why? Egos?

Expand full comment

An officer on the roof would have been in police or sheriff unitorm to avoid just that uncertainty, I imagine. Secret Service personnel in camoflage seems stupid. Friend or foe identification seems like a basic requirement of any security circumstance.

Obvious stuff, like the ball cap of the day, could improve this. Indoors, Secret Service personnel wear different lapel pins each day as a means of authentication among themselves. Don't these people game these scenarios out?

Expand full comment

This was not coincident. This was planned. Every venue the President is attending is thoroughly searched re-searched and searched again. To allow a 120 yard shot at the President is criminal. A friggin 9 iron.

But. . . 120 yard miss? A Boy Scout with Rifle Shooting Merit Badge could have made that shot. Evidence that this wasn’t a professional hit, but a leftist kook. We all know there are plenty of those.

I wondered if this was like Afghanastan and the counter sniper he to wait for permission to fire . And it came too late.

Expand full comment

One thing we DO NOT need: communication between all the different "law enforcement factions." For instance, when I lived in L.A. I frequently drove by streets from Hollywood to downtown. On one of those trips I counted 14 different vehicles marked with insignia of different, city, county, state & fed law enforcement. Fourteen! If all those ego-driven mini-fascists start sharing everything they know, it may produce a coherent thought. Then we'd be in REAL trouble.

My oldest son just finished a four year enlistment in the USMC. He went in under Trump and did three years under FJB. He said the military is just another corrupt, bloated bureaucracy and the brass are incompetent apparatchiks who only care about medals on their chests and careerism. He said they don't care at all about getting our sons and daughters killed. He is angry about what we are doing in Ukraine and sickened when he hears people cheering the deaths of Russian boys which he realized are just like him, serving their country and doing their duty. Every institution in our country is sick from top to bottom, from the president down to your local school board. I call it trickle down corruption.

Two types for a security detail and you must have both kinds of people, beef and brains. It's hard for a big guy like me to keep on a swivel. Guys like me are there to absorbe bullets. We have the job of forming the pile that protects.

When I was in the army, I was tall and skinny. Not much mass. On security detail my job was to scan and communicate.

That detail was woefully small. There should have been at minimum a half dozen more within 25 ft of Trump. The rest of the detail was about 1/3 what should have been.

Don't call me far right, just right so far.

So this guy tells cops & Secret Svc that there is a Sniper w a rifle crawling up that roof right there? And SS, cops, State Police don’t use their earpiece walkie-talkie and put it on the airwaves?.?
