Secret Service steers Trump campaign away from outdoor rallies
Axios ^ | Rebecca Falconer

The U.S. Secret Service is encouraging former President Trump not to hold large outdoor rallies in some instances following the assassination attempt on the Republican presidential nominee, the Washington Post first reported Tuesday and Axios can confirm.

Why it matters: It's signature Trump to hold large outdoor rallies, per a source, who emphasized that this didn't mean he wouldn't hold another big-crowd event outside. But the shift to deciding on a case-by-case basis whether to hold an event indoors or outdoors is part of increased security measures following the Pennsylvania rally shooting.

Keeping up appearances aren't ya SS? Why did you not give a flip about your reputation before July 13, 2024?

There's no denying or lying to Americans that will ever get you back in their good graces.

Katt Williams was correct. 2024 is the year of truths.

Assassination can happen indoors, too.

If the thousands of people taxpayers support in the Secret Service can't do their damn job - defund them and give the money saved to individual candidates to hire their own security.

We've seen what the 'Secret Service' does with their DEI top people and it's no bargain.

Looks like campaign interference to me!

No. They're only urging Trump to avoid outdoor crowds. They're not ordering him.

Maybe if they defined “perimeter” as the range of a good rifle instead of the distance to the nearest donut shack, they could actually do some protection.

This is why they are pushing the narrative, for security, President Trump should hold rallies indoors.

Well, if the outdoor rallies are big enough, they'd put any potential sniper too far away to get off a decent shot.

Just think, they could have a special perimeter for CCW gun owners. NOBODY would try to pull off anything there!

Just fill the space.

Those huge crowds showing up at outdoor rallies for Trump rallies aren’t good look for Harris and Democrats and must be stopped.

That definitely happened in Carson City, Nev.

HE was denied the use of an airport hangar-—

So he held it outdoors at Minden airport.

CROWD WAS ENORMOUS
