I think Trump and his supporters are milking this whole ordeal at this point. I mean, sure it was serious that this guy had the intention. But a bit of perspective is needed here… he never fired a single shot and Trump was never actually in any danger.
Jade ?
Who's the last POTUS we've had in America with multiple blatant attempts on their life ? Milking ? No jade it's not being taken serious enough and here's the thing eventually someone will get lucky and actually shoot him .
The real question is how many times has this happened and we don't even know about it ?? How many actual attempts have there been on Trumps life ?
I recall the FBI blowing an elderly fellow away for even threatening Joe Biden .... Do you recall that ?

I'm just so confused like does the secret service or Trump's security not go to these places beforehand and check it out? I feel like it was totally preventable because the guy is hiding in a bush for 12 hours supposedly like they don't do a perimeter check or anything before Trump goes there?? What is going on?!

Oh shoot. He must’ve not had enough time to prepare.

There was an attempt at another PA Trump rally, about 3 weeks ago. A madman tried to rush up to where Trump was speaking, but was tackled and taken away. Our anti-American media was disappointed, so very few reported on this.

Yeah like bushes and hidden areas a few hundred yards from where Trump will be isn't a good location for an assassin. 😃
Sure let's just skip it this time.
The top priority now is finding the "mole" inside the Secret Service who is tipping off these assassins. Until he/she is captured and squeals on who is giving the orders, these various attempts will continue for the next 45 days, or so.

Don't be too surprised to find out that the "mole" isn't from within the Secret Service, but, instead, from within Trump's own campaign team.
More at: www.washingtontimes.com...
The Secret Service allegedly told former President Donald Trump’s team that it did not have sufficient assets to secure a rally the campaign wanted to hold in Wisconsin, according to a new whistleblower account.
A person with direct knowledge of the exchange provided the whistleblower’s account to Sen. Josh Hawley’s office.
In a letter to Secret Service Acting Director Ronald Rowe, the Missouri Republican asked whether such a denial ever occurred.
The whistleblower alleged that the Secret Service “effectively forced the Trump campaign to cancel an upcoming event in Wisconsin,” Mr. Hawley wrote.
“Other whistleblowers with knowledge of Secret Service planning protocols allege that failure to provide protection for a major public event is highly unusual and that a sitting president would never be denied resources in this way,” Mr. Hawley said.
If the whistleblower’s allegations are true, Mr. Hawley said it contradicts comments Acting Secret Service Director Ronald Rowe made in a press conference Friday, saying Mr. Trump is “getting everything that the current president has with respect to Secret Service assets.”
“That same night, Secret Service secured a rally for Vice President [Kamala] Harris in Madison, Wisconsin,” Mr. Hawley said, pointing out the “apparent double standard” may be influencing the presidential campaign.

It will be interesting to see who from the White House is communicating to WHO in the Secret Service to enable these "oversights" that make it easier to murder former U.S. President Donald J. Trump, the #1 political opponent of Presidential candidate V.P. Kamala Harris.
Second Attack on Trump Preventable? Secret Service Was Aware of 'Known Vulnerabilities' at Golf Course: Whistleblower
Thank-goodness most of the Secret Service personnel that day were not part of the plot, and spotted Routh before Donald Trump had come close enough for him to take a shot at the former President!

Alternate theory - These attempts have been intended to fail with the express purpose of 1) Making attempts in the news become more mundane and “normal” and 2) to slowly but surely paint the Secret Service as wholly inept which will make it a lot easier to point fingers once the real attempt is made.
The SS has access to every asset known to man. It is not unusual for them to have persons attached to our Tier 1 JSOC units on TDY to bolster SS when manpower is needed. As Asset protection is one of those unit’s primary missions when they aren’t actively in combat, having them cycle through is standard practice. That includes ISA…
This “we don’t have the manpower” line is absolute BULLSH_T. IF they don’t have enough manpower, that’s because they aren’t asking for it.
Secret Service is gradually being made out to be barely a grade above Barney Fife when in fact they are historically one of the most capable protective details ever conceived. They regularly test fuel that will be utilized by the detail overseas a year in advance, but they can’t perform a cursory search of the immediate area and potential lanes of fire for a former POTUS? Nah. I have worked with local LE who cover their bases for visiting dignitaries much more thoroughly than this supposedly single-asset committed entity.

"Since Donald Trump decided to go golfing just a few hours before hitting the course, it's likely there is a MOLE** inside the Secret Service who told would-be assassin Ryan Routh to head over to Trump's country club and wait in a spot that would be left open for him."
But wasn't Routh there for quite some time before he decided to go golfing?
They missed that security breech for how long? Especially in light of that location being a known weakness in their perimeter!
