“We could risk the life of a secret service agent to protect him.”
That’s literally their job. Roofers take that risk every day just to make their bosses a little richer.

Wow, those are some true heroes. Positioning themselves on a sloped roof with no regard for their own safety
i mean, would you look at those angles?! the bravery on display here is unreal!
yeah but peasants are supposed to die for profit, the praetorian guard isn't that expendable
Dude. Do you want to stoke the conspiracy theories? Cuz that's the most obviously transparent excuse you could possibly come up with. YOU WERE ON AN EVEN STEEPER ROOF IN ALL THE PHOTOS.
Here are 10 better excuses not generated by AI, and to prove it's not AI I gave up after 7
1: We were under staffed
2: Atmospheric distortion due to the excessive heat
3: There was a tree in the way
4: The westerly sun blinded me
5: Localized smog cloud
6: It smells funny there
7: That would put us down wind of the crowd
sun was in my eyes, controller came unplugged, cosmic ray flipped a bit and fucked up my jump
my little brother had the walky talky and wouldn't call it in my spotter had a madcatz scope
My game lagged it's not my fault
We all had low blood sugar because we had exhausted our supply of Twinkies at the last campaign stop
The SS (SSecret SService) just want to get drunk on the job and post white power memes to 4chan, why are you asking so much from them?
Sounds like they just need more funding
What if that guy just saw the uncovered roof and succumbed to an intrusive thought
Lmao that would explain the lack of evidence of a motive or long-term plan. Just "huh, security looks pretty fucked here, whats stopping somebody from just climbing up there and... what's stopping me from doing that?"
Most people get a "throw your phone out the window", bro got a "you could ventilate that dude"
Holy shit haha. The people that are expected to soak up bullets meant for the president aren't allowed on sloped roofs? They were probably thinking that no assassin would do something as dangerous as climb a sloped roof.
The "slope" of the roof was like 10 degrees at most, a slight incline lmao, too scary!
Maybe Trump hand picked his detail because they all share his hatred of gentle slopes and stairs
Some of these guys supposedly don’t have any formal combat training or experience. I was watching the Jay Leno interview with some SS agents and the agent claims that he was just a mechanic who got the SS job by coincidence lol
This is kinda true… i think as long as you are willing to die or take the blame, they will hire you.
A 20 year old NEET braver than America's most elite security team.
Guess I'm more elite then the secret service because I know how to handle not only 10degree roofs safely but also use safety gear in vertical environments. these clowns heard of ropes? It's a new technology
But he didn't have any counterfit money so they had their job half way covered
How long untill chuds blame the whole thing on the fact that the secret service director is a woman
You're already days behind sadly. This and DEI hires in the Secret Service were being pushed as thr narrative on Fox and elsewhere within hours.
Suppose I knew in my heart just haven't bothered to go looking for it
I hope the hogs take out their anger on the secret service. I could use more funny events
Look, I'm not saying that everything important needs to be managed by white men. But consider the facts.
Not helping, Secret Service Chief.
The libs are already reaching Alex Jones level of conspiracy theory on this one
Drill an anchor in the roof, attach an eyelet. Wear fall arrest harness with retractable lanyard
I'm surprised we don't have presidential assassination attempts more often.
