    To be fair, trump was a candidate / former president at the time, not the sitting president nor president-elect. The USSS probably just let their guard down and didn’t expect anyone to try anything.

      Who expected a multimillionaire to be targeted before very public figures like Musk? And will private security take their job more seriously than the USSS?

      If they only kill the billionaires whose security lets their guard down because “no way it’s happening to us”, that still makes for a steady stream of blood.

      Red herring.

      The USSS probably just let their guard down and didn’t expect anyone to try anything.

      Minimization.

      Ad hominem is usually next. But, you instead could choose to answer the question in good faith.

        Bit early in the thread for one word retorts and assumptions of bad faith isn’t it? I’m not even sure what’s supposed to be being argued right now.

          No, it’s not. If there’s no logic in the foundation then what’s built upon it is nearly useless.
