They don't need more help they need to be investigated.

HE WAS THERE 12 HOURS AND NO ONE CHEKED THE AREA ?

[CarolCarolDoddDodd]

A man sat with a rifle for 12 hours waiting for him to walk around the corner. I think “are they doing enough” is a question that every single person on this planet knows the answer.

[alexandersheppard]

Somebody is telling them to not protect trump. I wonder who that could be!

[KevinGates-nx]

They don’t need resources. They’re setting him up.

[BizNessMan]

So is the acting Secret Service head going to resign as well?

[Mick]

The Secret Service doesn't need more resources!!! They need to do their jobs!!!

Trump derrangement Syndrome was a term coined for people who made angry (almost violent one could argue) about Trump...

Hold media executives accountable

[TiffanyT-LaDolceVita]

How did this man get a passport and fly to Ukraine as a convicted felon? How did he get the weapon? So many questions. Why was he and the other shooter both in Blackrock commercials? What’s going on with our country?!?! 😢

[onyx]

The secret service are incompetent period!

[TawniBoyd]

Why don’t they ever use drones with infrared to secure areas, it takes one person to run it!

[barbarasizemore]

That FBI AND DOJ IS GOING TO HAVE TO PROVE THEM SELF'S BEFORE I GIVE THEM ANY CREDIT

[dstorm]

As before, yet another failure to secure the perimeter...

[Feedthelibertytree]

You should do a show about Hillary Clinton inciting violence.

[alrad]

They need to come clean and give congress and the senate the truth. Stop hiding the facts.

The Secret Service and the FBI need a management overhaul top down.The Secret Service and the FBI need a top-down management replacement. This is not a coincidence. This will keep happening. Unless there's a complete change in management.

[glendagreen]

Apparent attempt? Florida says it was and they will prosecute accordingly.

[donaldhickok]

Both shooters were in Black Rock Commercials. Someone should investigate the CEO of Black Rock.

[areader]

the fact they can't supply adequate security with SS and won't allow him his own personal security means they are allowing these attempts to take place, which means it will be a matter of time if they don't change something fast.

Your " media " should be held accountable. If you succeed you'll be. " Good morning communists" .
