Sloping Roof Excuse Evokes Guffaws
If it hadn’t come within millimeters of getting Trump killed, the incompetence of Jill Biden’s DEI pick to head the Secret Service would be hilarious. But at least Kimberly Cheatle has a good excuse for not covering the nearby roof that Crooks fired from. There was a sloping roof:
Cheatle, who is facing calls to resign over the massive security failure, said Secret Service officials planning security for Trump’s rally in Butler, Pennsylvania considered the warehouse 147 yards away from where Trump spoke to be a risky position for stationing an agent. …
“That building in particular has a sloped roof at its highest point. And so, you know, there’s a safety factor that would be considered there that we wouldn’t want to put somebody up on a sloped roof,” she told ABC News in an interview Tuesday.
So Cheatle says they played it safe and “the decision was made to secure the building, from inside.”
Except it looks like they didn’t even do that. Secret Service spokesman Anthony Guglielmi says it was up to local police to secure the inside of the building. Yet Butler Township Commissioner Edward Natali says local police were strictly tasked with traffic control.
