Tim tears into Secret Service director Kim Cheatle's claim that the roof was too sloped to secure, arguing the pitch was minor and comparing the excuse to lying to children like a nursery rhyme, and notes local police were blamed too.
- Secret Service claims they didn't post anyone on the roof because it was sloped
- Tim describes the actual slope of the roof as so slight a teenager would easily climb it to smoke weed
- Secret Service snipers routinely position themselves on sloped roofs, making the excuse a nonsensical lie
- The explanation reads like a Dr. Seuss nursery rhyme — they're not even trying to sound credible anymore
- Tim calls the sloped-roof excuse one of the most offensive lies he's ever heard
- Secret Service also blamed local police, trying to throw them under the bus for the security failure
- Local cops likely would have done a better job than the Secret Service, or possibly weren't even involved in allowing the shooting
- Following the details makes it difficult to dismiss the possibility that the shooting was somehow allowed to happen
