    To play devil’s advocate here, he didn’t have to have his rally in an open field. He could have done it indoors where everyone going in / out is being screened, and all the windows are guarded by USSS. I’m sure he did it in a field to save money.

      My thoughts exactly. The campaign was warned several times about doing events outside like this. The failure was that the USSS allowed events they couldn’t secure.

      I would say from here on the USSS offers security where it can and is not responsible for security should someone choose an unapproved venue.
