Something is definitely off. From their response time, the way they surrounded him yet let him poke his head out, letting him pause for a perfect photo with the flag above him. There is definitely a major disconnect somewhere.

they also let him pause to get his shoes

what woulda been the textbook play? slap him silly and drag his azz?

I honestly was baffled and I had to watch it about 50 times. I am not even sure what to think. The fact that there was time to snap all those pictures of trump with his fist in the air when he should have been on the ground is mind blowing to me.

Glad I'm not the only one. The whole thing --videos, photos, and story around it-- all seems very fishy to me. And then all the people who are claiming they tried to warn the secret service agents about the shooter on the roof? Such a strange sequence of events

The incident was weird. Maybe that is because I have never an attempted assassin before but things just seemed off, right? Like, how the crowd see the shooting climbing to the roof with his rifle and taking the time to set up said rifle and aim but the police and the secret service didn’t see him? Isn’t that the majority of their jobs? Look for people walking in plan view with a large rifle? Then allowing a photo after the shooting and the way they slowly escorted him to the car, wasn’t what I would have expected.

Speculation about the ability of the shooter to get that close aside, the response of Trump’s body detail was bizarre. If you read about Cheney and Rice on 9/11, as well as watch training exercises, they normally pick the protectee up by the back of the belt and MAKE them move. Cheney talked about being dragged out of his chair in his office and being made to “walk on air” (my words) very quickly and without discussion. I didn’t understand the whole “group hug” side shuffle off the stage and allowing the protectee (Trump) to be in charge.

I hated QRF duty (or was it CRF?) when I was in. So mind-numbing and boring 99.9% of the time, until the .1% happens and it's a 50-50 that we'll actually catch it. For me it was the cop that actually went up to confront the shooter and noped the f out once he saw the rifle. It gave me Uvalde 'he's got a gun, I don't get paid to do hero stuff' vibes.

There’s so many great memes of the dude with a ladder and rifle walking across and climbing on top of the building where law enforcement was lol
