The Secret Service’s Failure-to-Protect Is Being Blamed on “an Operational Failure”

 The issue as framed by Republicans and media is: did the Secret Service provide enough resources to protect Trump.

The issue for the Republicans is Secret Service Director Kimberly Cheatle's resignation and not whether there was a Deep State attempt on Trump's life.

Rep. James Comer, chairman of the House Oversight Committee, defined the issue as the Secret Service "Lacks the proper management." The fight over whether Cheatle's "Significant operational failure" is consistent with her remaining in command will exhaust the subject of the assassination.

As the Secret Service now operates in the failure-to-protect mode, there will be another try.

Trump survived not due to the Secret Service but to turning his head at precisely the right moment to escape death.

Liberals will say the Second Amendment enables mass shootings and attempts on presidents and turn the issue into one of gun control.

Unifying America is taking the place of fight, fight, fight.
