That is not an example of critical thinking.

Did you take your meds today?
It would be a lot cheaper for the Fed Government to have it at the WH than at the Hilton down the road. Not even close. It is a venue. The WHCA would pay for the catering etc. This isn't rocket surgery. That talking point is trash. Find another one.
So your argument is basically that any private function the president attends going forward should all be held in DC in a new ballroom on White House grounds? And you think that would be of no additional cost to the taxpayers? 
Remember these people were regurgitating the talking points that the ball room was “at no cost to taxpayers” while funded largely by government contractor leeches (and unknown donors) and that other countries paid tariffs. If it deviates from their talking points you’re not going to get anywhere
We know you are dissapointed.

Yes. A lot cheaper. No advanced teams etc. ahead of the event. No travel expenses. I can keep going if you'd like? How many "private functions" does the POTUS go to in a year?

RE: Shots Fired @ WHCA Dinner
So, if Im understanding this correctly---it sounds like the ONLY reason the attacker did not make it into the main ballroom (where he could have actually shot at the president)---was because the assailant tripped after simply running past the Secret Service toward the ballroom---which allowed agents to catch up and apprehend him. Its also starting to look like a Secret Service agent was the person who fired the bullet that hit another Secret Service agent. Good Grief if this is all true---between this incident and Butler----the Secret Service needs to be disbanded and rebuilt from scratch. Just use Special Forces to protect the president until we can get a competent well trained Secret Service fielded.

I've always thought a SF team should be protecting the POTUS. They do it overseas, why not here? They are very well trained at this kind of stuff.

Never assume a massive wide spread conspiracy when simple incompetence is the more likely answer. Conspiracies generally require relatively smart people who can keep a secret. That gets more and more difficult when the size of the conspiracy expands to the size some are suggesting. Nothing about the Secret Service seems to indicate they have the competence to pull that off. On the other hand, they have shown in the past they can be quite incompetent (Id suggest watching the Butler video where one agent can be seen having trouble with the simple act of holstering her own weapon). Regan's assailant just walked up to the exit of the hotel the president was leaving and shot at him and the other folks around him. He was so close it was quicker for the agents to take him to the ground than to draw thier weapon.

The easiest human trait on earth to weaponize is stupidity. Now back to the drumbeat, the issue here is that public education is indoctrination for the left which leaves the students unable to reason and therefore easy to weaponize.
All of our issues begin and end with crappy public education taken over by your prog filfth!

Have you even watched one video of people talking to those attending trump rallies? Some of the dumbest ***** to even walk upright. It wasn't liberal education who indoctrinated these fine folks, it was likely years of inbreeding.
