I think you'll see plenty of attempts after this, some inspired by it and others in retaliation. Fun times for the US
Secret service will step up their security after this, so another attempt as close as this is unlikely
Failed attempts are enough to escalate things. And with enough attempts, some especially against smaller targets might succeed. It's gonna get intetesting
I’m pretty sure Secret Service is well aware of this, so they will escalate their security accordingly.
The same Secret Service who left one of the only buildings in the area unsecured? Who when told there was a shooter by the crowd, ignored them? Making a lot of assumptions about competency here when that's already directly in question.
Damn, did they hire the Secret Service from Uvalde or something?
I don't doubt that, I'm sure they're doing their best
