What went Wrong at Rally | Update

[christopherharpster]

I was probably 15 feet from President Trump yesterday. I was in the chairs in front of the stage, to the right. From what I've heard, President Trump's staff asked for more coverage because the lay out of the complex had multiple buildings within 200 meters of the stage. From my seat, I did see 2 SSA's on the roof to my right. Everyone on the ground level I remember instantly took cover at the first 3 rounds were fired. To be honest, those were at the time the only shots I remembered during the event. I remember seeing Trump give the okay and thumbs up as they were exiting him off, and then cops telling us to get to and get out. I was beside a family of 4, and when the cops told us to move the father took off instantly. The wife, a son about 16-18, a little girl, and the wife I escorted to the dad who was at the gate. To be honest, I feel like I need to give you credit Mike. I remembered listening to your Fight or Flight podcast, and I just tried to remain as calm as I could be. I'm not law enforcement, nor a military or vet, I'm just a normal blue collar dude who lives the podcast lol

The SS just got outplayed by a 20 year old kid with likely no tactical or military training whatsoever. This country has never been weaker than it is right now

I am a Butler pa resident... The building the attacker was on was a company just outside the Farm show grounds... AGR its a manufacturer company... The roof the attacker was on is about the same Height as the Building the snipers were on so when he was army crawling up the backend of the roof it would have been extremely difficult for the snipers to see him until he reached the peak of the roof... One of the biggest mistakes other than not having guys on the AGR roof being that its one of the only high ground threats in the area...was when bystanders were yelling at local pd about the threat of a man with a riffle minutes before the first shot and local pd didnt do enough to prevent what happened...maybe local pd didnt have instant contact with secret service but Trump should of been covered before the firsy shot being that bystanders saw the boy crawling up the roof with a AR and was screaming to the police.... SMH!

Really hard to believe that the building had not been secured. I really think a child could look at the premises and see that it needed to be secured.

The Secret Service Director should resign. She's on record numerous time advocating and promoting her DEI agenda with hiring. I'm not trying to come across as blatantly sexist but the performance of the female agents was embarrassing. She's an activist first and foremost. Her priority is to protect DEI policy, not her principles.

[kevincharles]

That secret service lady trying to holster her firearm was embarrassing. How the hell is she secret service??

[motordawg]

A charge does not mean you are guilty. I’ve been through that. Stay strong and keep up the fight.

[Nix-qqje]

SS needs to be held accountable. They failed

[maverickmyrtlebeach]

Prayers go out to Corey's family ~ Rest In Peace to Corey Comperatore, Former Fire Chief, the man that was shot & died at the rally protecting his family, when they clipped Trump's ear. My condolences to his wife Helen, and his daughters Allyson & Kaylee, and father Raymond. There was also another who was injured and is in the hospital. Mike hang in there we are with you..

This amount of tactical incompetency was not by happen stance.

As a "former cop" this is why I'm a "former cop". Departments are overrun with these cowards and they are forcing out the old guard just like the military. I'm sorry for what you are going through Mike but stay the course brother. This too shall pass

[RollingLiving]

I'm no security expert either...but as a young officer (many years ago) I spent hours on a rooftop in downtown Phoenix, securing that rooftop before a Papal visit. The fact that the rooftop at the Trump rally wasn't either covered or manned is absolute negligence.

[johnjlong]

I grew up in Butler, I've been to those grounds many times. The building he was on top of was not a barn. It was a business, but I agree that it should have been secured. Someone screwed up. It was a very obvious vantage point.

[delbert]

Hey brother I live here in Utah. I am an old guy who spent 30 years as a deputy sheriff. Now all I got is memories but even those are walking away. You sir are a good man, this I know as I’ve watched and listened for a number of years and I know good men when I see them. Hang in there.

[Myoffgridlife]

There’s no way that roof wasn’t covered/secured. A kindergartener would’ve known to look there. I’m still in disbelief

[billlapsley]

For clarification the shooter was on the roof of a building outside the farm show. (I live across the street from this venue). The shooter was on a rooftop of a business that borders the farm show that is probably 100-200 yards away. The shooter wasn’t within the farm show venue but was just outside of it. I still don’t know why that building wasn’t secured by police to begin with. I appreciate everything you do Mike and your insight.

[gabrieltravassos]

I'm a musician, not into military strategy and stuff but so far that was the most well-explained video about what happened at the rally. Mike, thanks for being straight to the point, no “blablabla” and just the honest opinion without create clickbait or just making the chaos to create more views. Congrats for the channel. 🍀

[perkins]

They gave the kid 35 minutes to do the deed it didn't go as planned then they had to make sure he couldn't spill the beans

DEI Ponitails One cant holster a gun, another hides behind Trump that os covered by SS, another 2 take cover behind the podium, other is adjusting Sunglasses, the third is adjusting jacket looking at reporter's to look good.
