Five Things That Stand Out About The Trump/Butler Shooting

 First....there were two command posts.  You can't find anyone who can detail how this is possible, and who gave the order.

In the Air Force.....no idiot would order up two command posts on a base...it'd make no sense.

Second, somewhere around 3:50 PM and 4:00 PM....this guy (Crooks) launches his own personal drone, and is noted....but no one takes action.  Action taken by the protective detail?  Zero.

Third, after Crooks is declared dead....he lays there on the roof for 12 hours.  No one can explain this detail....it's like they forgot he was there.

Fourth, Crooks had two bombs and remote device to blow them up....in the vehicle.  Why wasn't that part of the plan activated?  Unknown.

Fifth, communication between the local cops and Secret Service?  Marginally existing.  

Trump's 'Deal'? $5,000 Per Person?

 I paused over it this AM....reading the situation.

To be honest....at this point in my life....I really don't need the $5k. Yeah....it's hard to admit that.

Maybe in the 1990s....in the Air Force, with a limit pay situation....it would have mattered.  Today?  I have zero debt, and can't think of any 'toy' I'd really like to purchase.  I'd probably buy a new set of tires....take the wife to some expensive restaurant....but I don't need the money.

About forty-percent of folks....probably need the cash urgently and it would matter.  

Timing of this?  Well....some might bulk-up on Christmas gifts.  But I don't think you'd get the check until May of 2027.

To be honest, I'd rather see it paying down US debt.
