Oddly enough! They sure cleaned up the video of gunman running thru the hotel with a long gun!

There’s some questions I have! In the video they showed during Trump’s briefing Saturday night, how come we didn’t see this version of the clear video?

If they have the video now? They had it then too!

Also how come he was not stopped before he reached the hallway leading to the ballroom?

It may not have been staged, but surely show how inept they were prepared for anything like that!

I still think people knew that it was going to happen!

... attack there enemies for them. Yet here we are with the big big shot djt out in public... the assailant was able to breech the security check
point and enter the venue.almost to the main floor event.where important dignitaries and cabinet people sat.

Good thing a team of Iranian proxies were not dispatched to do an American regime change, like we did to them. Presdent, Vice President, Leader of the House wiped out. Who would have then been the president,... Senator Chuck Grassley ?

Superlative security.... NOT!

The ballroom was one floor below where he entered.

Perhaps now they will prepare for folks running through, but they'll find other ways to be inept.
