Browsing reactionary spaces, seems they're trying to brew the theory that the secret service purposefully let this happen, or though sheer incompetence. Wait a week and they'll start saying the secret service was compromised by Biden.

I saw some ex-cia guy making that same argument. The idea of a US president thinking the CIA is out to kill him is pretty funny.

I haven't seen this take yet. However, what I do see is some chuds saying that the guy is probably from Antifa and some others rallying for a "purge". This is going to be a wild year.
