I think the military top brass such as General Kelly have him covered very well. We do know he brought in his own longtime known security team to be even closer to him than the USSS until he and the Generals had a chance to select those in the USSS that were 100% trustable.
Early on (Feb 2017) the Director of the USSS was fired (Joseph Clancy) although the media was writing that he ‘stepped down’. The backstory is he was fired because of security lapses notably one in which an intruder had penetrated the WH grounds walking around at night for 30 minutes testing to see if any windows were open that he could crawl through. There was a related story that the intruder was there to kidnap one of the President’s grandchildren.
Donald Trump did take security risks to his person. Early on in the campaign of 2015-2016, Donald Trump wore bullet-proof vests to his rallies. There was one rally where it was thought that shots had been fired at him and he scrambled to the back of the stage protected by his own security team. But his son Eric pleaded emotionally that the size of the crowds at those campaign rallies required USSS to engage because the President’s own security team was too small in number. People back then that traveled with and knew Candidate Trump said he was truly heroic for facing those huge crowds.
But now I think he must have the best security ever arranged for any President.
Blackwater is involved in his security as well if I’m not mistaken.

Q posted that they were on a 5 minute delay, and then 5 minutes later, Trump sent a new tweet.
Better double check to see if that’s a real Jeb! tweet. Does not seem like something he would say. He hates Trump.
great vid, ‘Men on Football’..
I don’t see any of the nasty replies; maybe because I’m not signed in. I got a twatter acount just so I could follow Trump, but only made about 4 replies anywhere, and never got the hang of how to use it. So I just read and don’t sign in.
It looks like a Jaguar or Lexus key. Could be Mercedes, I don’t know.
I don’t believe it. I’ve seen photos of Sasquatch as a child and her high school graduation picture, and a photo of the yearbook page, this was years ago before the rumor about trannyhood.
She’s just an ungainly and unfeminine woman.
Throwing this back in since I initially got it in on the post migration tail of the thread before and TO thought it worthy of reposting current...
“I believe this counteroffensive has been brewing since at least the 80’s. I think the Eagle coin minting act was part of it, but I bet most of the early work and conceptualization was oriented towards seeking out bright young patriotic types working through the system that didn’t have familial ties or society ties to the cabal core.
Once the internet began to take off and the scope and magnitude of the possibilities available dawned on good guys they probably began to see the trend lines converging in the future at a point where the capabilities of technological authoritarianism would outweigh any ability to resist it, and they had their hard planning not-to-exceed deadline mapped out for them.
Like during some of our historical military occurrences, in this conflict it is almost a [or is?] divine intervention that the opposition did not game or seriously consider the implication of losing control over the information network to their plans. In one fell swoop this appears to have thwarted the attempt to cripple the one strongest, most individual oriented force on the planet. Their stupidity is up at that level that makes you think “what am I missing here?!?!” (Hopefully nothing!)
Access and eventual control of this destroyed their means of defeating a strong, charismatic leader/patriot and their house of cards appears to be crumbling at an astounding rate.
Make no bones about it though, we are going to be digging up physical and digital artifacts from this effort to enslave mankind for years. These people are going to have caches, trusts, buried corporate structures, foundations, like minded heirs and followers that will scheme and fester for decades if not found. They are penultimate long-game players. It’s something we’ll need to pick up on...”
> “Cohen never should have recorded anything, it’s illegal.”
I’m sure Cohen knew that. He’s a very bright attorney. To work as the personal attorney for Donald Trump and then Candidate Trump and President-Elect Trump can only mean Michael Cohen is one of the best.
So of course, he knew it was illegal to record a phone call from his star client. Of course, he knew that!
So why did he do it?
IMO he’s with Trump in trolling the liar media.
And what about Lanny Davis?
Lanny Davis has forever got his lips puckered to the Clinton’s bottoms. Having a Clinton insider as your lawyer means whatever is said will EITHER get winked, nodded, decoded to Clinton honchos OR the presence of Lanny Davis will sedate the Clinton criminal network. Keep your friends close and your enemies ....
Freeper jjotto gave some solid info on Manafort saying he was a former partner with Rick Gates who ran McCain’s campaign. My research on Manafort was that he was a nice guy who may have been living beyond his means in Manhattan in an extremely high lifestyle and that he needed an employment contract using his previous campaign experiences and skills.
Manafort’s networking landed him a job with the Trump Campaign. But to get that job he needed recommendations and the conjecture is that McCain (who is known to have been involved in the bogus Russian dossier) knowing Manafort had Russian connections via Ukraine (Manafort helped the pro-Russia regime in Ukraine) so that McCain worked behind the scenes to have people recommend Manafort to Trump. Some skullduggery going on for sure. It’s possible, IMO probable, Manafort had no idea he was being used to taint, to brand Trump as in collusion with Russian supporting networks because of Manafort’s previous associations.
Here’s the backstory on Manafort by Lewandowski:
https://www.politico.com/magazine/story/2017/12/04/paul-manafort-and-me-216004
Q alludes to McCain and Pelosi as faking their illness or ailments. McCain’s brain tumors from glioblastoma would not allow him to think much less talk to the press, yet he is always active in combatting Trump in some way.
Pelosi claims she is having ‘memory problems’. Yeah, right. Q alludes this is a ploy to have Pelosi declared as an unfit witness. Pelosi is McCain’s “friend across the aisle.” She was recently in North Korea (before Trump was active with North Korea) and she may be involved in illegal weapons trafficking with the N. Koreans. Pelosi started out in Congress with little money and is now worth over $100 M.
According to Q, Blackwater is prime security for the President’s trips abroad. I tend to think it is true.
Wow. Thanks for sharing that.
When Manafort came aboard at the time I was excited. He was brought on board to deal with the nomination process at the GOP convention. After that he was let go. I still think he was a plant.
Yes, he seems to have been a plant without knowing he was a plant.
His Russian-Ukrainian associations were perfect to use by the coup plotters to claim the FISA warrants were valid because Donald Trump’s very own Campaign Director was a known (but unregistered) agent of Russian-Ukrainian government regime members. Having Manafort in that position was the perfect cover for the coup plotters who had lied their way into spying on Trump.
I just can’t think of a better “get” for the DS than somehow hooking Cohen as early as possible, and was throwing that idea on the wall with all the others. The showy raids of his offices and apartment were so legally unnecessary, but did serve as very convincing optics that they (FBI) and Cohen were not supposed to be connected.
Cohen, Popadopolous and the kid who had drinks with the Russian “professor”, all appear to be more hapless than they do proficient. The FBI seems to recognize who can be played, intimidated or indicted.
In a way I feel sorry for Manafort but live by the sword, die by the sword.
He was a useful tool at the time. Once Trump was on to his bovine scatology he fired him.
More than anything I feel bad for Lewandowski who lost his job to this scumbag.
