Endless posts of people claiming they should’ve put people here, they should’ve there. Maybe just get a grip on reality.
The SS director's excuse that that they didn't put a team on the shooter's roof because it was sloped and would be dangerous to them doesn't smell right.
Do you think the counter snipers had to ask permission to shoot once the shooter pulled the trigger?

Not knocking you post but there were three counter snipers in the building where the shooter positioned himself.
Heck they could have placed someone in the gangway between the buildings where he climbed to the roof. It had already been marked as a security risk days before the rally.
Police were stationed inside the building from which gunman Thomas Matthew Crooks fired shots at Donald Trump, the director of the US Secret Service Kimberly Cheatle says.
Ms Cheatle told ABC News that local police were inside the building while Crooks was on the roof, and that local police - not the Secret Service - had been “responsible" for securing the building and its outer perimeter.

Then you have the situation being talked about on the The Donald Trump False Flag Assassination Attempt thread.
“According to my source, that roof was supposed to be a police post. Someone was supposed to be there. They’re now making up excuses saying the pitch of the roof was the reason, but my source says no one knows why the post didn’t show up. That’s a nonsense story they’re putting out in the media.”
"I was also told that the Secret Service Director has been given instructions from the Administration and the DHS Secretary that if you want to keep your job, you'll keep your mouth shut about this."

New photos show the shooter had a TV remote on the roof with him.
Perhaps to use to remotely detonate explosives in his car.
Secret Service Director Kimberly Cheatle has attributed the absence of a sniper team to the "sloped roof" of the building, citing safety concerns.

I don't think that's how TV remotes work.
