“These Women Were Half The Size Of Trump” | Secret Service’s Response To Assassination Attempt

A grateful Donald Trump was in Milwaukee on Monday to make final preparations for the Republican presidential nomination later this week after narrowly escaping an assassination attempt that he said presented an opportunity to bring the country together.

Trump, 78, was holding a campaign rally on Saturday in Butler, Pennsylvania - a key state in the Nov. 5 election - when a 20-year-old man with an AR-15-style rifle got close enough to shoot at the former Republican president from a rooftop.

One shot hit Trump's upper right ear, leaving his face streaked with blood, but he was not severely wounded. His campaign said he was doing fine.

International security expert Will Geddes joins Talk’s Alex Phillips to discuss this further.

Women as personal bodyguards is simply a no-no. This on-going DEI nonsense in the secret service must stop.

[sharkeen]

Boy, I totally agree with this. Trump wasn’t covered half the time.

[holaclive]

Ex Vietnam vets are saying if nobody is fired today for the security debacle, then its a cover up, in other words it was allowed to happen

[sptrader]

DEI was the problem. Replacing large men with small women, to be politically correct. Trump needs to hire a private security team of large men. Trump is 6' 3".

[Falconlibrary]

The three female Secret Service agents were panicking. We all saw it.

[marybrahm]

Bingo…..women aren’t physically equal to men!

[martinholmes]

Women bodyguards only belong in hollywood movies.

[rolenrodes]

DEI has no place in the Secret Service.

[bluenetmarketing]

It's obvious to the entire world that this was "allowed" to happen.

[lostinpa-dadenduro]

So this 20 year old outsmarted the entire secret service and knew which building to go directly to that was unguarded and had a convenient ladder. Amazing.

[mikestravelshow]

What an absolute disgrace by the secret service.

[LorileeWI]

The 5 ft woman trying to help the President down the stairs has her SUNGLASSES in her RIGHT hand as she's going down. Beyond the beyond.

[chiquitafeldberg]

One crouched down and hid behind team mates, these girls were panicking

[jjmturbo]

Secret service woman couldnt even holster her gun...complete incompetence.

[Comics-uz]

If the VIP is over 6' then the human shield should be at least 6'.

[maxwellfan]

The most farcical misappropriation of gender equality one will EVER see.

[HardRockMiner]

There is a reason why nightclubs don't have female bouncers. This is ridiculous!

[tudomerda]

The secret service woman was more concerned about the fate of her designer sunglasses than protecting her charge, also, she was crouching whilst escorting the president, surely her job was and is to stand at FULL height to protect her charge. She is a disgrace to the service.

[Tracylvideos]

Some jobs should not include women. It’s ok for women to be in security but logical would dictate that a woman that is physically incapable of protecting a 6 foot + male should not be on that detail.

This incident showed Americas secret service is as embarrassing as Joe Biden is.
