As I have been saying in previous Posts and Notes, too damn many things “went wrong” for what happened in Butler, Pennsylvania in the assassination attempt for it to be incompetence.
It was a two-part plan:
Part 1: Create the Conditions for an Assassination Attempt
The execrable Kimberly Cheatle and Ron Rowe of the Secret Service, and the despicable DHS Director Alejandro Mayorkas created the ideal conditions for an assassination attempt to be successful anywhere along the campaign trail.
Worthless, zero-experience, mostly plump female DHS agents replaced experienced Secret Service agents
The person put in charge of them - the site agent - was an equally incompetent, inexperienced, plump, female, lead agent straight out of DHS. Even the Trump people had complained that she was totally inexperienced, as this was her first time as a site agent.
Multiple requests for additional staffing and equipment were rejected. Why?
Obvious shooter locations were left ignored and unprotected. Why, and who was in charge of that decision?
The shooter was allowed access to the event on a bicycle and with a backpack, both never allowed under normal circumstances. Why was it allowed, and by whom?
A “suspicious person” (who ended up being the shooter) was spotted walking around the grounds with a rangefinder the morning of the event, inspecting various locations and buildings. Why wasn’t he stopped, handcuffed, and arrested?
Trump was allowed on stage after the “suspicious person” was spotted and was being pursued. Who made that decision?
Trump was allowed to remain on stage after the “suspicious person” (the shooter) was spotted on the roof with a rifle. Who the hell made that decision!
No centralized radio communications between Secret Service and local law enforcement (This never happens. Ever.) Who failed to arrange for this?
And you want me to believe this was all incompetence? In addition to having a wholly inexperienced group of dunces as Trump’s detail, and having less than the full complement of staffing and assets, there also had to be someone in the detail who had the authority to 1) Go forward without full protection, and 2) Gave the approval to send Trump out on the stage, and 3) Make the decision to leave him out on the stage.
I vote for the plump, inexperienced, female, lead agent (a “friend” of Cheatle’s) as our “insider”, and I say she was placed there by Cheatle, approved by Rowe, and that approval was seconded by Mayorkas.
What could go wrong?
Part 2: Someone Who Wanted Trump Dead Planned the Perfect Assassination Plot
The former Director of the Secret Service, Kimberly Cheatle, admitted under oath at the Senate hearing that she did, in fact have an encrypted “Signal” texting app on her personal phone, and that she had used in her official capacity. What the hell could be “official” that required her to use her personal phone and an encrypted app?? Oh, I don’t know…how about a way to communicate with, for instance, the despicable DHS Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas, the inexperienced site agent who also happens to be a close friend of Cheatle’s, and perhaps even someone in the White House such as the very “gay” Anthony Bernal, Jill Biden’s personal aide.
There is even speculation that the uber-ambitious Jill “Lady MacBeth” Biden may have had a hand in the attempted assassination. Think not? Why the hell did she schedule a small gathering in Pennsylvania on the same day at the very same time as the Trump rally, and siphon off a larger, more experienced, Secret Service detail from Trump’s normal detail? Right. Just a coincidence.
The attempted assassination occurred just days before the Republican Convention and conveniently before the naming of JD Vance as the VP nominee. I know, just another coincidence. And to that point, why was former CIA Director Mike Pompeo, who was planning to attend the Republican Convention, telling people he was going to be the VP nominee? He wasn’t ever on Trump’s candidate list, so what the hell did he know, when did he know it, from whom, and why?
And, lest we forget, for the first time - ever - CNN aired a Trump rally live, in its entirety. What are the odds? Unless, of course, they were told by an insider that it might be worthwhile to be there.
Now, if you still believe the assassination attempt was nothing more than incompetence on the part of the Secret Service, or mere coincidence, watch this interview of Sen. Josh Hawley regarding whistleblowers he has spoken to recently:
Whistleblowers say lead agent at Trump assassination attempt was 'inexperienced': Sen. Josh Hawley
The Secret Service, DHS, and others were trying to get Trump killed before the Republican Convention.
The whistleblowers are coming out of the closet, fast and furious, as they want to save their own sorry asses.
I rest my case.
The Liberator
There was no ladder. It was placed there after the assassin was killed. He climbed on an air conditioning unit, from where he pulled himself onto the roof. But everything else that happened - or failed to be done - was not incompetence. It was all part of the plan. We just need to find the planners. And I'm betting that Trump and his sons have probably hired their own private investigators and will get to the truth before any government investigation.
You forgot one very salient and relevant fact - CNN covered this Trump rally live. This is the first Trump rally that CNN ever scheduled to be aired in its entirety. Literally a 1% chance.
