the scene was not secure because outdoor spaces is where most political assassinations happen and that is the main reason for failures, not DEI.

... because the Secret Service isn't capable of doing their job. He didn't say outdoor rallies are bad. He is just stopping for the near future because the Secret Service is so incapable that it can't be done. He has no choice but to not do them for now.
I'm sure this makes the left very happy. They don't like the optics showing 30,000 and 40,000 and 50,000 people all not buying the left wing bullcrap rhetoric and all around Trump wanting him to be POTUS. Especially when the left can't manage to get more than a few hundred people in a school gymnasium.

My point is no protection agency would be able to effectively deal with fully securing large outdoor spaces, it's an impossible ask.

No it's not impossible. That building the shooter was on was an obvious place they should have secured. They didn't do it. They failed. It's just that simple.

The Secret Service officials encouraging Donald Trump’s campaign to stop scheduling large outdoor rallies and events
He has had dozens and dozens of campaign events outdoors since 2015 and now they want him to stop because of thier failures in Butler Pa?
Not sure what the best answer here is but we know DJT can get huge crowds outdoors I don't think the DNC likes the optics of it all, DJT gets huge crowds let's see if Harris can draw well.
Are we going to have to build him a bulletproof golf cart, let him ride to the stage, and get in a bulletproof box?
needless to say, I am skeptical AH

when people make a statement and then say .. 'and you know it'... that's obnoxious.
And it's a failing argument.
NO .. no one knows any such thing.
The Secret Service failed. Their leader was a DEI hire and she failed.
If the Secret Service had hired someone based on merit and ability instead of
on them having a vagina ... this might not have happened.

She had 24 years experience as a Secret Service agent and two years experience as Pepsi's head of global security.
On paper, which part of her professional history makes her unfit for the job?
