A series of bombshell text messages from countersnipers who were supposed to protect Donald Trump at the Pennsylvania rally where an assassin's bullet nearly killed the president showed them a step behind the gunman.
A massive inquiry has started in the wake of the attempt, which Trump miraculously survived, with the resignation of Secret Service Director Kimberly Cheatle coming soon after the July 13 shooting.
Now, it appears a group chat of those meant to protect Trump were aware that gunman Thomas Matthew Crooks, 20, was in their midst over 90 minutes before Trump was shot at, rather than an hour as the FBI had previously claimed.

The people waiting for Trump to speak were one step ahead of the secret service. Elmer Fudd would have been one step ahead of the secret service. Willy Coyote would be one step ahead of the secret service. As the weeks pass, and more information gets out, it becomes more apparent that the security for this event was even worse than anyone could possibly imagine.

The incompetence and negligence displayed by the Police, and the Secret Service at this rally is breath taking.
Is it any wonder that people think of a conspiracy?
Especially when we all know Pelosi set up the invasion of the Capitol so she could call it an insurrection and after all of the false lawfare used against Donald Trump.

Oh come on people. It was planned for DJT to be killed by administration. He will not be POTUS 47. They have plenty of time to kill him.

I can't help but think this entire assassination fiasco is a plot to get the attention off the Biden/Harris disaster. More details are coming out every day and it looks like a frame by frame train wreck. All the air is getting sucked out of the success of the Trump Campaign leading up to and during the convention. The dem cohorts of the lame stream press are in total control of the news. This is a big smoke screen.

The big question is were the Secret Service snipers and local uniformed police officers deterred from personally making contact with the suspect Thomas Crook during that time period because of some sort of confidential rule of engagement sent down from the politicized Biden appointed leaders of the Secret Service and the Department of Homeland Security until after Crook or any suspected perpetrator took any sort of overt action, which essentially gave Crook or any other perpetrator a change to get off a clear shot at Trump and murder him. In that respect the Secret Service snipers obviously knew where Crook was positioned, and immediately after Crook got off a few very rapid shots, those snipers fired at Crook from about 400 yards away and blew Crook’s head off. Remember just a few days before Crook fired at President Trump, that Biden publicly announced that it was time to put Trump in a bulls eye!

The interesting thing is that it isn't even necessary to find any incompetence or malfeasance in the Secret Service or other security folks. It may be there, but it is not necessary to explain the failures.
Take a job that REQUIRES 40 agents to do properly and give that job 9 agents. Sit back and watch them GUARANTEED fail, no matter how hard, how competent or how dedicated those 9 are, they cannot do the work that REQUIRES 40 people. It is a certainty that "some balls will get dropped".
And this was PLANNED AND INTENDED by Mayorkas.
Now, add in just a dash of DEI incompetence, and a smidge of normal human error ---- and you get an even higher probability of a shooter getting lucky. I don't even pay much attention to the screwball conspiracy theories -- they aren't necessary to explain what happened.
No need to hire an assassin, no need to plot or plan, no need to try for complex schemes with many moving parts......just keep reducing the number of Secret Service agents, drip, drip, drip.....until they fail.
Didn't fail??
Cut some more agents.
Still didn't fail????
Cut some more agents.
STILLL didn't fail???
Cut some more.
Planned.

According to text, Crooks knew counter snipers were in building. So why would he climb on top of a roof that was in full view of counter snipers. That makes no sense
