      They more or less did. Watch the full video if you want to see.

      The perspective here is a little weird, but he was pretty much immediately dogpiled by ~10 agents who all then guided him from the scene. He made them stop so he could fist pump for the crowd before leaving.

      That said, the secret service apparently wasn’t keeping a close eye on nearby rooftops. They dropped the ball hard on this one.

        I always thought that was like one of the main things they did. We’ve been hearing for years that they’ve been getting sloppy and unprofessional but I always figured they’d get their shit together for protecting one of the ones they like.

      This was after they had confirmed the shooter was dead.

      He dropped before the secret service got there.
