Secured from the How bout the outside. You and your agency failed.

A safety factor.???
A sloped roof.???
90% of roofs are sloped!
Idiotic thing to say.

The U.S. presidential elections have seen some intense moments, but an attempt on Trump's life is quite alarming. It's reminiscent of the incident during Ronald Reagan's presidency in 1981. Nowadays, it seems like there's a strong effort to undermine Trump, creating a concerning atmosphere that mirrors that of a third-world country.

20 year old outsmarted the Secret Service, how sad!

[bobbalcom]

No need to worry about resigning.
You're fired.

[BigTpres]

Nobody wants the same people at fault investigating themselves. Like when cops investigate themselves

[geneclemetson]

Amazing how a helicopter or drone was available for this footage but none on the day of the rally?? GTFOHWTBS

She apparently believes, "The Buck Stops Here" means the last person to shift blame and make excuses.

[callamastia]

if the roof was safe enough for him to climb on then why were the cops worried about it being too sloped? tf

[glassontherocks]

The Secret Service has some explaining to do. This was an obvious set up.

[specd]

Cheadle RESIGN! You failed, your a stain!

[sandyshore]

Give me a break! The Secret Service Director said there was a SAFETY ISSUE having a secret service sniper on that roof because it was so sloped!! We are not that stupid!
Of course they could be up there. Lies!

[jimwallace]

Inside job obviously. This kid was in a Blackrock commercial few years back. They knew well who he was

[rclark]

It amazes me they still use this old picture vs using the MANS current picture!!

[irenestark]

The rally attendees saw the shooter, pointed the security towards the roof top, screaming THERE IS A MAN ON THE ROOF “ Security said. It’s OKAY. Don’t worry. I personally saw the video with the woman and the blond guy screaming in terror, no reaction from police and security.???

[LonghornBaseball]

Sloped roof??? Pencil pushers have no idea what pitch that roof is

[TTPink]

A 20 year old out smart the secret service. This is hard to believe.

[atanacioluna]

I feel sorry for the family of this confused young man and other people who are so traumatized by our divisive politics. I hope our nation will be back to being more rational soon.

[DOboyle]

Secure the building from inside? What are they trying to protect something inside the building or something outside the building? What kind of roof are the other snipers on?

[bettymajkrzak]

Our countries in sad shape. we need better leaders better people running to be our leader.
