The USSS is beyond responsible for this, as they are the primary line of defense for Donald Trump. Besides the rooftop, which anyone with common sense would have protected right away, there were many other elevated sites that the agency should've taken care of before that rally.

The USSS, as well as its parent agency DHS, is also in dire need of more funding, and while that's no excuse, it's a proposal that everyone can certainly agree upon.
