Famous Comedian Savagely Destroys Secret Service Over Trump Shooting
Tim Dillon unloaded a rant for the ages Saturday following the shooting of Donald Trump.
Most of the country has been talking nonstop about the Republican nominee for POTUS surviving a shooting last weekend. A would-be assassin's bullet clipped his ear and other shots killed one man and wounded two others.
It was a horrifying moment that played out in front of the country. Unfortunately, there have also been nonstop conspiracy theories about whether Trump was actually shot (I debunk that nonsense claim in the Instagram post below and make sure to hit the follow button for more) and the Secret Service has made the situation more absurd with one claim:
A roof was left not secured because it was sloped.
Tim Dillon torches the Secret Service after Donald Trump survives shooting.
The Secret Service claims the roof Thomas Matthew Crooks fired from didn't have people on it because it was sloped. Nevermind the fact that the roof the USSS counter-sniper team on was actually sloped much more. The Secret Service claims the building was secured from the inside because of a sloped room.
Well, the slope didn't stop Crooks from shooting Trump and three other people. Dillon, who is a must-listen-to comedian, ripped the Secret Service for the excuses it's making.
The incredibly popular comedian said the following, in part, when breaking down the absurd situation:
"Now, the Secret Service is out there saying they didn't put anybody on that roof because it was sloped. The head of the Secret Service, Kim Cheatle I believe her name is, is out there saying we didn't put anyone on the roof because it was sloped. You can get that up. That insane reasoning, and the slope of that roof by the way, it's the slightest pitch. You easily would have gone on that roof to smoke weed as a teenager. It would not have stopped you. The slope of that roof would have stopped no one. If you were getting [oral sex on the roof], you would have been on the roof. If someone had weed on the roof, you would have been on the roof. That is not a sloped roof...There are Secret Service snipers on a sloped roof. They're lying to people now like it's Dr. Seuss. Where it's like a nursery rhyme, you know. 'We were going to put someone on the roof, but they said nope because the roof was sloped. So, we couldn't do anything at all because the Secret Service agents might fall.' It's nursery rhymes. They're not even trying anymore. This literally one of the most offensive lies I've ever heard that the roof sloping was the reason that they did not clear the roof. They also came out and blamed the local cops."
That was just to get things started. From there, the famous comedian riffed about how little effort is being put into coming up with a believable narrative.
"They used to put so much work into lying to us. Now, there's no work being put in the lies. That should offend you the most. 'The roof was sloped! What do you expect us to do?' It's like, 'B*tch, wait, hold on.' It's really amazing they don't put any work into the lying. They don't put any work into the f*cking lying anymore," Dillon continued.
You can listen to his full comments in the video below. The rant starts right at the beginning and the further part accusing them of putting no effort into the spin is about 20 minutes after that. Let me know your thoughts at David.Hookstead@outkick.com.
For anyone outraged by that segment or rushing to defend the USSS, just remember it's comedy and Tim Dillon is currently a top three most famous comedian in the world. He's also not wrong that the sloped roof claim is absurd.
Nobody with a functioning brain believes you can't put people on a sloped hill. I spoke to three Tier One operators, who have all killed people in combat, and they all said it was nonsense.
A former Delta Force operator called the claim "complete bullsh*t" and a SEAL Team 6 sniper friend of mine - who once killed an ISIS fighter more than half a mile away - said you can put sniper teams literally anywhere, including trees.
Yet, the USSS decided to not secure the roof of a building with a direct line of sight at Donald Trump. It's an egregious mistake, and people deserve all the information that's available. The public needs accountability and transparency.
Props to Tim Dillon for not being afraid to push the limits with some comedy and also rightly calling out the USSS. Let me know your thoughts at David.Hookstead@outkick.com.
