but the biggest reason Trump’s life was put in danger is because rules of engagement prohibit snipers from engaging until the assassin shoots first.

 

I don't believe this is true. 

Are they saying if one (not me!) walked up to a president and pulled a gun they would not engage me? Till I fired first?

Or does this policy only extend to ex-presidents named Trump?

Dan Bongino just said the opposite. They’re allowed to neutralize a person who is aiming a rifle in the direction of the protectee.

I believe your last sentence is scarily correct.

I would question when this ROE went into effect.

It’s not true. Bongino said you can shoot to prevent injury to protected targets. You have have to wait for them to be fired upon. That’s absurd.
