The U.S. Secret Service appears to have broken its own protocol with Hillary Clinton's early departure from Sunday's commemoration of the 15th anniversary of the Sept. 11, 2001, terrorist attacks at Ground Zero.
In a widely circulated video of the Democratic presidential nominee's departure from the ceremony, Clinton can be seen leaning against a security bollard and then buckling and stumbling as her security detail helps her into a black van.
According to a former Secret Service agent who reviewed the video, the detail was clearly rushing and did not expect for Clinton to leave at that time. The former agent noted that it is against Secret Service protocol for the protected individual to wait for a car to arrive. In the video, Clinton is leaning against the bollard as a black van pulls up.
It is also very unusual for a detail leader to leave the protected individual's side, as a Secret Service agent, Todd Madison, is seen doing in the video, to open the van's doors. Opening the van is the site agent's job, according to the former agent; the detail leader's proper position is next to Clinton. The agent may have had little choice given the rushed nature of the departure.
The Secret Service did not respond immediately to a request for comment.

I’m sure that is why she left early.
Woman carrying two purses.
Hellary too sick to even tote a purse?
You are correct. We don’t give up our purses.
It is their job to prevent a sniper from getting a good bead on her. This involves getting big bodies between her and any possible vantage point.
Blocking camera views is just incidental to the protective aspect.
That is my nagging question the past few days. Having met a couple secret sevice agents in the past I know they are dedicated people. The two gentlemen I met did not have kind words for the Clintons. Both were retired when I met them and I did not get the sense that they would have discussed their charges while still active. Yet, I did talk with them both enough that I think they had character enough to speak up had something like Hitlery is experiencing happened. Just wondering what the rules are tho.
Bull crap. Why were they deployed before she had her seizure?
She was just out in the open being held up with that huge woman. Where were the secret service then ? as soon as she failed they blocked the cameras!!
Hillery has a full set of dentures, the “New” Hillery is sporting real teeth.
Also, ear structure is different, and hair is way different in texture and lay.
In the video earlier this week, placing a hand on ones chest is a method of controlling Parkinson tremors
Obama is scared to criticize Trump cause Trump tells everyone that obama is the worst president in history. Haha I think it’s funny. Obama is very thin skinned and slimy too.
LOL!! That is too clever; it will make her look like she is still standing even when she has passed out.
