Even if "human error" is the cause, it 100% unacceptable and there needs to be some accountability.

Human error my azz just like round two Trump's golf course visit was spur of moment he gave 24 hour notice to DHS who leaked that info hmmm. Error my azz

Secret Service Made Human Error.
They mistook Trump for a human.

[Sumschmuck]

The secret service didn't make a human error. They followed the dncs instructions to do nothing about the obvious gunman on the roof.

[face]

I still think this was set up, there is no way that those secret service people would let TFG head pop up after someone supposedly trying to shoot him. And TFG is a coward, no way he puts his head up if he didn't know that he could shot at again.

[katherinetaylor]

He didn't get hit by a bullet he either cut hisself or he got hit by a piece of plastic

[DaleMeese]

Are you kidding, it was not an error, they simply did not do their job.

[Lovesapuzzle]

It will be much easier to secure Donald in Rikers. It will also lighten the load on the Secret Service.

[bornvillain]

MSNBC is an embarrassment to journalism.

[chanks]

The human error was on the part of Dumbaldo's campaign! They did a poor job of planning, rehearsing and implementing that sad hoax of a show. They should never have given that poor kid live ammunition!!! They knew his marksmanship was the worst in his school.

[MichaelWinkelman-rmhp]

So the secret service admitted it was incompetence but was it actually "Intentional Incompetence". ??? 🤷

[andrewcanoy]

Error would imply they didn't want it to happen.

[HOOKEM]

Gross negligence so bad that there is undoubted complicency.

[kahanakahuna]

BREAKING: Trump proposes lowering the tax rate to 15% for "Made In America" companies. That will encourage domestic job creation and and bring manufacturing back to the U.S. Brilliant. This is what "Make American Great Again" is all about.

[kahanakahuna]

And Congress just increased funding to address the Secret Service's incompetency that's unrelated to funding.

[Lovesapuzzle]

The Secret Service made multiple mistakes.
1. They failed to surveil and secure the area.
2. They allowed the target to control his exit.

[BertTurbaville]

Kinda hard to make an error, when your charge is setting up his own bogus "attempts".

[whocares]

Yes the secret service picked the wrong asset to carry out the operation. They cleared the roof had a ladder placed against the wall, didnt stop him flying a drone and waited 25 seconds before returning fire.

[softtaco]

It took months for them to write on paper what EVERYONE has been saying all along. This is the worst movie I've ever seen🤡

[DaveSchultzXXL]

Trump is an icon that will live forever in history. Biden will be laughed at.
