While I understand outside venues are an extreme challenge, to cover and defend.

We have also seen LSD LAWFARE actions regarding Trumps Rallies.
Where permits are issued for 3,500 and 25,000+ show up.

Such #'s surely cause P.R. issues for Democrat (insert name) campaign and MSM trying to play down his popularity with the voters.

#4 Game Plan #354:

USSS: We can't guarantee your safety in an open arena.
Trump: Well, I'm still doing it. I won't hide
USSS: Well, on your head be it /smirk

#6 Wow. I had Bee.

Why doesn't the SS admit publicly that it
is not up to the job?

It all depends on the meaning of "the job". If the job was Security Theater, they did great. They had the Professional Bodyguards with blue blazers and sunglasses. They had the Tacticool Snipers with scary black rifles. We should not let the clips of swarmy confusion or the fact that the protectee got shot detract from the performance.

#7 They could screw up an indoor rally just as easily as they did in Butler.

#9 SS's request to Trump to stop outdoor rallies IS an admission SS can not or will not do its job. AFAICT they have not asked this before.

#10 I expect that there will be another attempt where the Secret Service can be shown to be doing an excellent job like the FBI did with Whitmer.

#13 Over at Althouse someone pointed out that drones will make the job far harder than before.

#14 Drones will be a big problem. Watching the tech that is being developed in Ukraine, and it low tec - high yields stuff, is just frightening. Iran has facial recognition in their drones, hence the drone attack on the Russian aircraft. Defending and defeating this will be hard.
