My

 best guest is?

It was a CIA operation disused to look like a Secret Service detail. It failed miserably. A vote for Trump, is a vote for these kinds of shenanigans on a lot bigger scale.

Former Secret Service officials say agents should've kept Trump low, not fist pumping

"After an assassination attempt on Donald Trump by a sniper on Saturday."

(Snipers dont use AR's.

They are for cover fire.)

"The instantly iconic image"

(That was the entire intent.)

"Trump's extra few minutes on stage were a serious operational failure by the Secret Service 

(Cause it wasnt them and it was planned.)

"that further endangered the lives of the presidential candidate and the agents protecting him, former Secret Service agents and other experts said."

"The standard protocol is to keep the "protectee" − in this case Trump − bent over at the waist, with his head down and his body fully surrounded by agents as he is whisked off the stage, to prevent additional shots from hitting him, according to multiple former Secret Service agents."

“It was absolutely terrible coverage trying to get him out,” said former Secret Service Director John Magaw,..." 

(Because it wasnt Secret Service Agents trying to do it.)

"who has scrutinized every frame of the videos."

“It should have been faster,” said A.T. Smith, the deputy director of the Secret Service from 2012 to 2015.

(It wasnt the plan, they had to get their:

"instantly iconic image"

This is how social engineering works folks.

Right there.

Just like that.

Trumps been on TV right?

Been in movies?

Hollywood?

Think about it.)

"The agency is already buffeted by questions about how a sniper was able to climb atop the roof from which he shot the former president, and why it didn't locate him sooner after reports of a man behaving suspiciously."

Well?

"The agency is already buffeted by questions"

Because they weren't "the agency" that day.

"how a sniper was able to climb atop the roof from which"

They planned out the roof top access for the fall guy days in advance.

"why it didn't locate him sooner after reports of a man behaving suspiciously"

Because they needed him there and they didnt care if you knew or not.

"he shot the former president,"

(No, not even close.)

"the protective detail's performance after the shots were fired did not follow well-established procedures."

(Because this agency doesnt practice that.)

"Thomas Matthew Crooks began shooting, winging Trump's right ear"

(Not confirmed by anybody)

"But a USA TODAY analysis of available video, and interviews with experts and current and former Secret Service officials, raised questions about Secret Service actions in the minutes that followed.'

(Cause it wasn't them.)

'Bend him over, and bum’s rush him'

"Some former agency officials said the agents in Trump's protective detail appeared to break with protocol during what's known as the "extraction" process, the critically important effort to evacuate their protectee from follow-on attacks by anyone who might be working with the initial would-be assassin. That kind of one-two punch is so common, including cases where an initial shooter is only a distraction from a more lethal attack, 

(This crew this dat had not practiced that and? Deliberately didnt do it either.

They had to get the shot.)

that it's a central part of the training for agents 

(For secret Service agents yeah...These guys? Not so much.)

and the protectees themselves, they say.

"Smith and other former officials said Secret Service agents are supposed to do whatever is necessary, including a punch to the gut or backwards yank on the belt, to make their protectee double over so their head and torso are enveloped by a phalanx of agents."

(These weren't them. Wrong agency yo.)

"In Trump’s case, after agents raised him up and circled around him as they are trained to do, Trump can be heard saying four separate times, "Let me get my shoes."

(Tells you wats up...really does,)

"Then when they began moving him, Trump appears to stop in his tracks again, looks out into the crowd and, to growing cheers, begins raising his fist and mouthing "Fight" three times.

“The Secret Service training protocols, when they practice this and they have mock assassination attempts, the idea is for the (protective) detail leader or an agent to be able to wrap his hand around the midsection of the protectee and bend him over, and bum’s rush him to either a secure area or into the vehicle” idling nearby, said Smith, who also headed training for the agency during part of his 29-year career."

“That's in a perfect world, and that's what happens in training scenarios,” Smith, who now runs his own global security consulting firm, told USA TODAY.

“I would agree with that it goes against protocol,” former Secret Service presidential protective detail veteran Keith Gessner, now with Crisis24 PSG, said about the agents’ inability to keep Trump bent down, out of sight and moving fast to safety."

(Wasnt the plan.)

"Agents in the wrong position and a bad exit route

But there were other complications too, according to USA TODAY’s video analysis and interviews.

Trump lay on the ground for an extended period of time while agents figured out what to do.

(Not according to AP he didnt lol.

I bet it had something to do with the shoes?

Wat do you think? 

Best guess logical, rational  brain God gave you?)

"Once they got Trump on his feet, the protective circle of agents − the “last line of defense” against a potential second shooter − at times had a gaping hole in it that also exposed Trump’s head and body."

(Because they werent Secret Service agents.)

"One reason for that was because one of the agents was much shorter than Trump, said Magaw, the former agency director who also headed FEMA and the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, and Firearms."

"Making things worse, Magaw said: “When they started to move him, they didn't get around him properly, the big ones should have been off on both sides, the smaller (agent) up front because they were turning to the left, and the two bigger guys in back, but they screwed that up.”

(Cause they weren't Secret Service agents.)

"And at least one of the agents also exacerbated that vulnerability for Trump by bending down, twice, to retrieve their sunglasses."

(And that's really what gives this botched operation away. Nobody, in our Secret Service would have ever done that not only not once? But twice. Along with all the other protocol violations, but that right there? Seals the deal for me as far as I am concerned.)

“That left his body exposed from the waist up,” Magaw said. As for the agent's sunglasses, “If you lose something, you don't pick it up.”

"Some former Secret Service officials also said the evacuation route essentially made Trump a sitting duck. That’s because it was a narrow set of stairs off to the side of the stage instead of a wide exit ramp, preferably out the back, so he could be made to disappear quickly."

(Why would you care if you know the whole thing is a sham to start with?)

"Publicly posted videos show that some agents had to jump off the stage to greet Trump at the bottom of the stairs. Others had to break up their protective circle around him in order to get to him down."

"Smith, the former deputy Secret Service director, said the protectees are given specific instructions, and go through training, on how to get down, stay down and do exactly as they are told."

 

“All the additional stopping, the fist-pumping, the ‘I’ve got to get my shoes,’ you're not only placing yourself at risk, you're placing those agents at risk as well,” said Michael Duffy, a former federal law enforcement agent and founder of the global security firm Solutions Group International that has U.S. government contracts."

(Gives it away.)

“At the end of the day, this is a life-threatening situation and he doesn't dictate what happens," Duffy said of Trump. "It's a security-related matter and those security professionals dictate what happens. He has to go with the program now, he's not in charge anymore.”

(Oh you can say that again.)

"His campaign spokesman declined to answer questions about the shooting, including whether the Secret Service – or Trump himself – did anything to delay his evacuation and put him in potential further jeopardy if it turned out there were additional assailants.

“Are you apologizing and making excuses for the assassin? Because that's disgusting if you are,” Trump campaign spokesman Steven Cheung said in a text.

(NO DIPSHIT

THEY ARE ASKING LEGEITIMATE QUESTIONS

YOU REFUSE TO ANSWER.
WHY?)

“The Secret Service can try and do what it's supposed to do and then the human factor comes into play,” Smith said. “I mean, I understand, the former president's intentions by doing what he did, and they were obviously successful for him. But in terms of that being necessarily textbook, no, it would have been better to move quicker.”

(It was the whole intent 

"I understand, the former president's intentions by doing what he did, 

and they were obviously successful for him." 

and that's why they didn't move him quicker.)

The agents were acutely aware of Trump’s vulnerability while on stage, Smith said: “One agent kept putting his arm and hands up and things like that. So, you know, they were obviously self-aware even then, that to some degree, they're still vulnerable, and they were doing the best they could with that.”
