It's a parody accountHer surname is 'Lesby' and she has a cursed, 6-colour rainbow icon? Imagine my surprise. Fall to your knees, mourn for your sins, and piss right off, you depraved ditch-licker.

That's actually a good question. However, he did request extra SS support, multiple times even. They also specifically drew away even more staff to Jill's event.The cynic in me wonders thus: Donald Trump is no idiot, so knowing he's vulnerable to assassination, why would he not have his own trusted security batman to run the rule over all security details at these events. If he had such a fellow, then all of these security "errors" would've been spotted and mitigated against. It all reads like a movie script to me.

You vote down too eagerly (especially so as you are a mod) , even when you haven't comprehended the point. Having a personal security advisor and confidente costs peanuts for a man of Trump's wealth. SS are not his people, he needs his own people or person to mediate and advise. Now vote this down, sheesh you're hard work at times man.I'm pretty sure Trump was trying to save money by relying on the Secret Service, and the SS got short-staffed on purpose for this particular assassination attempt.
Previously, for the past 8 years, Trump's SS detail was top notch, so it's reasonable for Trump to have assumed they would be good here too.
I doubt Trump will be cheap from here on out.

You want to say Trump made a mistake and should have had better security than the SS. Okay great....so what?
Well let’s look at the facts we do have. The head of the usss, Kimberly cheatle is very much compromised. When she says “we could not put any agents on a sloped roof where the sniper was”, it is not so much of a nonsense answer but a veiled threat.
“We can arrange a hit on Trump, we can make similar arrangements for anyone who criticizes me or wants to look into this matter”,
If you are Trump, do you want to rely on this person for your protection?
There was also a NATO Summit (July 9-11) in Washington, DC, which required additional protection resources from various Alphabet Agencies for international leaders.UThat's actually a good question. However, he did request extra SS support, multiple times even. They also specifically drew away even more staff to Jill's event.
Then on top of that they were told they couldn't go on that roof for safety reasons.
I suspect that Trump had reason to believe the SS were more than sufficient as they were, and it took deliberate sabotage to change that.
18 U.S. Code § 3056 - Powers, authorities, and duties of United States Secret Service

...
(3)Former Presidents and their spouses for their lifetimes, except that protection of a spouse shall terminate in the event of remarriage.
(4)Children of a former President who are under 16 years of age.
Good mods are generally, in my experience, more restrained and certainly less strident. And only sissies down vote.Being a mod means you're not allowed to have an opinion and engage on the forum? Come on, you would rather have a bunch of guys hiding behind the curtain who don't care other than to swoop in and shut us down like other forums?
You want to say Trump made a mistake and should have had better security than the SS. Okay great I won't even argue about the concept of better security than the SS....so what?
