In the wake of an attempted assassination on former President Donald Trump this past weekend, Tim Kennedy, a Special Forces Sniper and Green Beret, shared his unfiltered thoughts on the situation.
In an emergency episode with Chris Williamson, Kennedy provided a raw, no-ads, no-edits discussion on what happened and the broader implications.
A Chilling Event
Kennedy described the events as a mix of Occam’s Razor and Hanlon’s Razor.
The simplest explanation supported by evidence led to the conclusion that the situation was a blend of incompetence and malice.
“If I go back, I don’t want to start on Saturday because I think that grossly misrepresents the problem,” Kennedy said, emphasizing the need to look at organizational issues, personnel selection, and training over the past three years in the Biden Administration.
Divine Intervention Saves Trump
Kennedy highlighted the near-fatal nature of the attack, stating, “The only reason that man is not dead, that the former President Trump is not dead, is because his head at the very last second changed a few degrees and a bullet went past his ear.”
He attributed Trump’s survival to divine intervention or sheer luck.
Security Failures and Organizational Ineptitude
Kennedy criticized the security detail’s failures, pointing out a series of organizational and training issues.
“This is the most premier security detail on the planet. This is the standard that everybody looks to,” he said, lamenting the lack of competence and preparedness displayed on Saturday.
He also mentioned the broader implications of these failures, citing the current leadership in the White House and personnel within the Department of Homeland Security and Secret Service as inadequate.
Analyzing the Shooter and Counter-Sniper Response
Kennedy provided a detailed analysis of the shooter’s actions and the counter-sniper team’s response. He described how the shooter climbed a negative pitch roof and had a clear line of sight to Trump.
Despite the obvious threat, the security detail failed to act swiftly.
Kennedy noted, “It starts becoming very evident about where, how, and how dangerous this situation not just was but currently is because it’s not fixed.”
Inept Security Response and Organizational Failures
Kennedy did not mince words about the security team’s response, criticizing their preparedness and actions.
He highlighted how local law enforcement and Homeland Security contractors were inadequately prepared, leading to a chaotic and ineffective response.
He called for immediate firings and overhauls within the Secret Service and Homeland Security, stressing the need for competent and capable personnel.

A Call for Private Security
Kennedy suggested that for Trump’s safety in the upcoming months, private security might be necessary.
He mentioned the need for someone like Eric Prince to handle the situation, given the current inadequacies within the government-appointed security teams.
Conclusion
The attempted assassination on former President Donald Trump has exposed significant flaws within the security details tasked with protecting high-profile individuals.
Kennedy’s insights reveal a need for immediate changes and highlight the broader implications of such organizational failures.
As the political landscape heats up, ensuring the safety and security of candidates remains a top priority.
