Now that made me laugh.

I really do try.

[rwilson99]

Gee... my own trusted security team or a bunch of Johns who would hire hookers in South America? Tough choice.

[piytar]

Of course Trump will keep his own security detail in place. Duh.

a major break with tradition and raises fears that the future president could be surrounded by a cadre of strong-arm bodyguards who take an extremely hard line on protesters

He is literally going to drive them crazy.

They are not going to make it past his 2nd SOTU. Maybe they can get group rates at Bellview.

[defconw]

Well his guys have their heads on a swivel I hope!

[wrench]

And the assassination was carried out by a security team member!

[Karl Spooner]

That’s right. The SS were drinking into the wee hours of the morning the day JFK took a few rounds, too.

Don’t remember. IIRC, Alberta meetup, in re oil.

[ealgeone]

Bet there are no problems with ho’s or getting drunk.

[barker]

Read somewhere the vest is the reason he doesn’t button his jacket. Makes jacket too tight.

I am absolutely sure you are correct.

"...raises fears that the future president could be surrounded by a cadre of strong-arm bodyguards who take an extremely hard line on protesters."

Oh geez......Trump isn't going to let the looney left get a decent crack at assassinating him.

That's just unfair!

[Karl Spooner]

Not I, Keith Schiller can throw a punch!

Right. A government SS guy would have to be nice and politically correct.

Heh, the HuffPo really has trouble with anything beyond the second grade.

That would be a major break with tradition and raises fears that the future president could be surrounded by a cadre of strong-arm bodyguards who take an extremely hard line on protesters. The private pack has accompanied Trump on his tour of “thank you” rallies, where the bodyguards have roughly ejected protesters from venues.

I would do it too. No telling who in heck Obama has stuck in the Secret Service. This will give Trump time to drain the swamp.

Yuppers

[lodi90]

Look at what happened today in Turkey with the Turkish cop offing the Russian. Trump is no dummy. He wants his long term guys in the inner most security layer.

[Right-wing Librarian]

1963.

Wise move, President Trump!

[Leep]

Be funny if Trump popped one of the rioters.

Doesn't "raise fears" with me - I see it as a natural reaction to the crappy SS that he is inheriting from Ødungo. As for protesters - most of them should know fear.
