I'd rather have Vance's Secret Service Agents As My Security....

Trump’s guy's seemed to react a bit slower. There could be good reasons for it......
A great job by all involved, just an observation.

It is odd they scuttled the VP first... then again, I'm sure Vance is far more agile than Trump and can simply move faster.

In Pennsylvania the female secret service agent used Trump for her very own human shield

They snatch Vance up and he says, "Alright, Alright!". Lol
Those baws weren't fooling around!

Trump was already removed. Is that 3rd in line Johnson they surrounded?

Watch the video. That was Trump being removed at the end. After Vance.

No he wasn't. Vance was removed before Trump. And by more than just a little bit too.

Security was absolute shite at the event all around. Secret Service has failed Trump multiple times now.

JD’s detail is smaller than Trump’s. For the president, they shield in place until the two (sometimes more) shooters get between the president and the threat. Once the shooters are there to provide cover fire they move POTUS.

The VP doesn’t have those guys assigned.

Ehhh… it looks like they secured him in place and only moved him when they had the personnel to completely surround him. They may have needed until the location they were moving him to was cleared.

Had there been shots fired inside the auditorium, there would certainly have been a different, much more aggressive response.

Had a gunman opened fire as they were moving Vance he would have been vulnerable standing on the stage.

They really should have podiums and any seating areas have ballistic shields (non conspicuous) leaving a much smaller target and a space to duck into for cover. They could even have spaces along the pre planned route.

JD Vance was completely removed from the stage before anyone even got to Trump.

Never underestimate the deep state. Someone pulled jfk’s detail that was walking right next to his car before he made that last turn.

Vance isn’t 80 years old. Age makes a huge difference in one’s agility. Trump appeared to fall face down as they were moving him away with the human body shield.

I agree was thinking how poorly his team is. They’ll let him stand up have a few words and shake his fist. Terrible job they do on him.

The agents are running a playboook, no different from football. Specific agents are assigned to the President and Vice President. They are taken through different routes and taken to different places, all to ensure that nobody can take out the command structure with one incident. The speaker of the house and the Sec. of State are part of the same playbook.

There were spec ops in the crowd, sitting at tables, layers of coverage, ready for any problem. The democrat perp did not even get past the first line of protection.

The video from the front shows one...pretty large guy...standing directly in front of the table in front of Trump. He did not have a problem being the shield until the rest arrived to lead him off.

There was no security screening outside the venue. Only outside the ballroom. Outside the ballroom there were metal detectors, but nobody was even checking IDs. This is according to Kari Lake.

The security was shite.

Yet again. This is why I think the conspiracy theorists might be right.

Driving home late last night listening to the news, all I heard was them gushing over SS and what an outstanding job was done. The dude should have never gotten close to where he got. Fail. SMH.
