I can imagine a selfless Secret Service agent protecting Dr. Carson by throwing his body across the candidate’s mouth.

Give him a hammer and a knife and he can take care of himself.

Sarcastic...yes...I think the guy is strange. My gut tells me something is wrong.

Ben will write a book on how he saved the Secret Service people. His mom will vouch for that.

They offered me a job as the director of the Secret Service, but I wanted to continue my quest as a retired brain surgeon running for president.”

I see from this thread that at least the communist traitorous US media slander-narrative construct about this candidate, as they start to pick our guys off one by one leaving us with Yeb!, is taking root and being propagated in turn by some of those within Freeperdom. Nice shilling. Gotta love being unwittingly coopted into a lib strategy like that.

So he thinks he needs upgraded protection if he’s going to speak to a conservative audience?

RINO syndrome repeats itself per election cycle.

Carson isn’t perfect, but the lib media can thus far only find incidental stuff about him, never mind lying openly, so they are regarding him to be that much of a threat to their power. Imagine them doing that to Obama?

Don’t know if it is down to the venue. Both Trump and Carson got the SS protection four days ago as it appears, so this AP story is a latecomer.

I would imagine the Secret Service are finding Carson and Trump to be heaven compared to working with Hitlary Rodham.

Good news. The kkkLeft is out to capture/destroy the runaway slave. Bet CArson is getting tons of threats from kkkleftists cause he’s not on the Dem plantation.
