I’m glad he went public too.
True.
Trump would do better to beef up his own security. The current SS would only..... Never mind. I’m too afraid to say what I really think.
They don’t care about his life. I pray for Trump.
His own security is probably just as good as SS and certainly more trustworthy.
And I think there is a mechanism under which he can apply for SS protection.
Good point...
I wouldn’t trust “agents” dispatched by Obama anyway.

Yep. I was thinking the same thing too. I can guarantee that Trump has thought of that too. Trump is probably weighing his options.
Trump spoke with the FBI and NYPD after El Chapo put a $100 mil bounty on his head and they encouraged him to beef up security.
From what I have read, he has taken their advice.

I think it’s actually a bi-partisan issue: Democrats and GOPe.
Exactly.
With all the scandals by the Secret Service in recent years, Mr. Trump would probably be better off using his vast resources to increase his own private security.
I’m not sure I would trust a Secret Service under the control of Obama and the corrupt “Justice” (Just Us) Department.
I wouldnt trust the SS these days Mr. T . ..
Trying to remember but can’t. Did George Wallace have s.s. protection when he was shot?
Absolutely..
My thoughts precisely. There’s lots of people heavily ‘invested’ in the current financing scheme that is DC. Lots of little hoglets afraid of being removed from the teat.
Why would you trust the SS. By now it must be absolutely crippled by affirmative action and cronyism. Would he not be better off using a private security operation with other layers of vetting on top of that. Being in an international business he has to have employed some serious operators.
Lots of SS agents standing in line for this gig.
“Pressed on details, Trump asked one of his private security officers to describe the discussions the Secret Service has had with his campaign. The talks were described as preliminary, and the Trump camp says the Secret Service had not provided a definitive answer on when — or if — the billionaire businessman will receive government protection.”
Sounds like through conversations his campaign has made a request for protection and waiting on an answer....but just not a “formal” request. Guess a request “in writing” is required, even though death threats were received!
