'She Should Go Back To Being Store Detective' | Head Of US Secret Service Slammed

Speaking to Talk’s Cristo, political commentator Russell Quirk slams US secret service director Kimberly Cheatle after the service failed to detect the shooter before he opened fire on Donald Trump at a rally in Pennsylvania.

Donald Trump described on Thursday how he narrowly survived an attempt on his life, telling a rapt audience at the Republican National Convention in his first speech since the attack that he was only there "by the grace of Almighty God."

"I heard a loud whizzing sound and felt something hit me really, really hard on my right ear," he said during a 14-minute account, a thick bandage still covering his ear. "I said to myself, 'Wow, what was that? It can only be a bullet."

When he told the Milwaukee crowd that he was "not supposed to be here," the delegates chanted back, "Yes you are!"

This is NOT incompetence…. It is INTENTIONAL

[flybirds]

This is the Secret Service! The counter snipers should not be asking for permission, spot the threat and remove the threat!

[MikeMcCall-owjt]

Anyone can see that she is not qualified for this job.

[mgcarmkm]

Putin must be having a good laugh at the American Secret Service.

[R_McGeddon]

Incompetence nearly on a par with the Met

[Life_Of_Lilliana]

Mountains are also sloped. Do you not allow snipers to take positions in the field on sloped / uneven terrain? That is the dumbest excuse I’ve ever heard

[dangermouse]

"Her pronouns are incompetant and useless" I lol'd

[abattle]

So small women are meant to protect a 6.4" man. Yes that makes perfect sense. Sigh ...

[sharonodell]

She got the job thru Jill, her friend. Unbelievable.

[swallman]

The slope in question was 4 degress, the slope of the roof where they did have snipers was 14 degress so she has been caught in a terrible lie. It shows how absolutely stupid she is, one for just the idea that a 4 degree slope was somehow "dangerous" but she had to know she had snipers on other roofs that were in fact steeper. She is simply trying to cover something up. Incompetence at best a conspiracy at worst.

[Michaelgytfr]

It’s amazing more information comes across the pond than we get here in America.

[TheVagolfer]

Passive incompetence is the same as active compliance, the results are the same.

[concepcionledezma]

Why does it seem that Englishmen have a better perspective of what's going on in the US than most American media?

[samwisethebrave]

Checking receipts at Best Buy may be too much of a challenge for her.

[eddie-xrmn]

Why isnt there a navy seal or Delta force officer in charge here?

[Calbeck]

Her first act when taking over the Secret Service was to change up the dress code to be more "Disney". All about brand and DEI, nothing about competency.

[sunsetbayplaka]

I would suggest that a store detective is way beyond her ability.

[dianecameron]

she didnt put someone on that roof because it had a slope for gods sake he got on the bloody roof crazy what next cant go on the roof because its to high

[cashflowredianalovetravel]

Secret Service Director needs to resign or be forced out. Totally incompetent & politically motivated.

[JuanMoreno-woyb]

The Secret Service is supposed to be nonpartisan so why is this director best friend with Dick Cheney?!?
