Something I have encountered with protective situations, and which I haven’t seen addressed anywhere regarding Trump is why the sightline to the buildings weren’t simply blocked.
It is impossible to secure every single location, but if there is a cluster of buildings, you park a semi-truck and trailer in the line of sight (or put up a green fence, or whatever) and then you have the much easier job of securing your blocking.
I wonder if we’ll ever get answered to this. It seemed like such a basic failure that it should never have happened. I’m surprised the house didn’t immediately start hearings and pressing people for answers. Makes me think they would end up finding themselves to blame or something.
There was a House hearing, and the USSS director resigned.
There were no good answers provided in the hearing. Complacency and sloppiness of procedure seem to be the baseline answer, but pinpointing names of who exactly on the ground failed is difficult for the public.

But I guess that’s a really in the weeds.

Ok, I definitely didn’t pay attention to that.
