House Democrats are launching an investigation into President Trumps treatment of the Secret Service during his bout with the coronavirus.
Homeland Security Committee Chairman Bennie Thompson, a Mississippi Democrat, accused Trump of disregarding the safety of his protective detail when he left Walter Reed National Military Medical Center for a short drive in his limousine to greet supporters who were outside the facility.
Thompson called Trumps Sunday night trip a joyride that risked the health and safety of the agents who had to accompany him on the trip.
So we can know more about how these events have affected the Secret Service and national security, I have requested a briefing from the agency on the current safeguards in place for their employees including on the Presidents protective detail and how Secret Service agents can be kept safe from coronavirus-related threats, including apparently the President himself, Thompson said in a statement.
Trump tweeted that the trip was deemed safe by medical staff at the hospital. An attending physician also accompanied Trump on the drive and wore a mask and other protective equipment.
Trump also wore a mask.
Trump announced on Twitter Monday afternoon that he will be discharged from the hospital and will return to the White House at 6:30 p.m.
Gee its almost as if the democrats believe they can control every move of the president.
time to end this foolish notion.
orange man bad
“Think about that for just a sec. By definition a Secret Service agent has agreed to step in front and TAKE A BULLET for POTUS. And we are worried about them getting a virus with a 99+% survival rate?”
THIS!
In other news, democrats launch investigation into Trump’s stapler. Southern district of NY also said to be subpoenaing office supply invoices.
RATs could care less about the Secret Service.
And just exactly what do they hope to accomplish here?
Considering that traditionally the Secret Service is supposed to "take a bullet" for the President, risking a bout of the coronavirus is pretty tame.
The very fact that the President exists poses a risk for the Secret Service.
Let’s see who’s not wearing a mask in my previous post.
lol So they’re admitting masks don’t work. Good move! Man, this is NOT gonna end well.
LOL...the poor dear completely missed her fainting couch.
If this isn’t a reason to impeach, nothing is!!
They expect to learn all details of the Presidents security, to pass it on to the special Brennan-Haspel termination unit.
Good grief these people are nuts.
Score one for Yo-Yo !
and everyone wore a mask so what’s the problem
They need to first study why when he is transported TO Walter Reed there is no problem, it’s only a problem when he LEAVES Walter Reed.
Exactly.
“Old Ironworker proverb...Lifes a bitch and then you die..”
or,
“Life’s a bitch and then you marry one...”
or,
“Life sucks and then you die...”
and on and on....
Truly, the inner scumbag is strong within the democrats...
