Heavily Armed Security Accompanies Trump on Louisiana Flood Inspection Trip
Gateway Pundit ^ | August 19, 2016 | Kristinn Taylor

Posted on 08/19/2016 8:31:43 AM PDT by bobsunshine

Two heavily armed Secret Service agents with weapons ready were seen deplaning ahead of Donald Trump from Trump Force One in Louisiana Friday morning.

Trump has been the target of death threats and has had at least one assassination attempt on the campaign trail.

The Republican presidential nominee is taking a presidential-style inspection tour of the flood ravaged state to show solidarity with the flood victims and to contrast leadership styles with resting rival Hillary Clinton and vacationing President Barack Obama.

Video of the armed guards was posted to Twitter by NBC News Micah Grimes.

He needs security from the Clintons’ agents. Too many have been killed by them already to dismiss the murders (and Arkancides) as coincidental.

The MSM is concentrating on the Secret Service rather than Donald Trump to try to show that he is “afraid” of the people.

It is a blatant attempt to blunt his message.

There truly are people in the media who still think the sight of a firearm is a shocking thing. They’re as out of touch on the topic as their Queen Hillary.

Supposedly, quite a while ago, Trump had an emergency landing somewhere in the midwest because it appeared his plane had been messed with.

I thought about security concerns when I first heard about that trip.

Why was the exit from the back of the plane?

“doesn’t look like usss to me.
more like private contractor, imo.”

Certainly not the typical in the shadows low profile SS, though the second guy has a badge on his hip. Most contractors don’t wear a badge.

They are angry that Trump is already more presidential than the road apple serving today.

Hadn’t heard there was an attempt till this...

So far there have been three attempts reported in open sources (as in men with guns being hauled away and arrested after an incident).

The attempts were not well planned or executed so apparently they don't count. The 19-year old British stalker who grabbed for a security officer's gun so he could take a shot at Trump is the one people may remember.

There have also been a number of minor assaults which got brushed aside by the security teams.

No, the Rolls engine he has on that plane had problems with a oil supply line. They lose oil pressure. Rolls has had problems with that engine and several planes that have that engine have had to shut down the engines because of it.

They have corrected it.

Maybe they are there to shoot the victims of the flood, just like I was told that they did when Bush was president. Yes, really, Bush’s people killed 1500 black victims, I know its true, my cable installation guy told me.
