FBI has nothing to do with the Secret Service. That video says nothing about what the SS could see from their vantage point. It was a matter of 3 or 4 seconds of exposure when moving 200 yards away. The closest sniper had their view blocked by a tree. The further away snipers were looking the other way to the left side of the crowd.
A lot went wrong here, communication break down mostly. The cop that peaked up on the roof and saw him should have at a minimum fired his weapon as soon as he could. Not at the shooter but just as a signal. The SS would have tackled trump before the shooter had a chance and it would have alerted the rooftop snipers where to look. Originally Posted by royamcr
