President Donald Trump said the Secret Service “blew it” when law enforcement failed to secure the outdoor venue in Butler, Pennsylvania, where he was almost fatally shot two years ago to the date on Monday.
His remarks were in response to a recent report from the Department of Homeland Security Office of Inspector General. The 64-page report showed that Secret Service agents missed over 100 alerts from local law enforcement officers about the suspect who carried out the assassination attempt from the roof of a nearby building.
