SS Director took the blame — but she ain’t stepping down. We will have to wait until January for Trump to fire her incompetent ass. Trump had 5 SS agents covering him on stage. Two of those 5 were woman that weren’t over 5’ 6” tall. How do you use your body as a shield for someone, if you can’t cover their head (most vulnerable) from a threat. Had there been a second shooter, Trump would be dead. They did a horrible job of shielding him AFTER the shots were fired.
Well, I don't know. TMZ is pretty tenacious about this kind of thing. They don't back down very easy, especially when they think they've got something no one else has.
And yes, this is an absolute, 100%, SS failure, no matter how anyone tries to slice and dice it. I've worked around the SS before and they are generally not clowns, BUT this was back in 2008. And, it was Obama they were protecting. They left not a single stone un-turned for about a mile in every direction from where Obama would be. Seriously, we had to weld manhole covers shut upwards of a mile from any place he or anyone else from his entourage were going to be. We're STILL cutting some of those welds apart fully 16 years after the fact! There were counter-snipers on every rooftop, and most certainly all of the highest ones. The place was crawling with counter-snipers. It was incredible. They had a whole separate cargo aircraft just for them. So, there was AF1, and two (2) C-17 GlobeMaster aircraft (one for the president's vehicles, and the 2nd for the SS contingent). It was like a mobile army!
Much different SS now, I guess.
