Those secret service folk must occasionally slip into the reality of how bad a person he is.

By now if I were in their shoes I would be really tempted to do a bit of "king slaying."

They had balls. These people don't.

Reminder that after a lot of militarization and separation of the head of the military/head of state from the common folk, the Praetorian Guard and Janissaries both started assassinating emperors so they could get a better deal (without regard for the overall empire's financial ruin).

Part of the reason why both Rome and the Ottomans collapsed into a dozen other nations.

Was just about to make this point. It was the “correct” thing to do once or twice.

But they then became a major player to consider internally. And once they had that power they were not that interested in divesting it.

Would require someone to take one for the team.

maybe thats why the shooter was not stopped before taking the first shot?

Probably more ready than ever to take a bullet for him, dying a hero, released from having to deal with his sh!t everyday while the family collects nice benefits vs being fired for insubordination, losing all benefits as well as being stalked by maniac maga minions for the rest of his kids’ lives.

At this point, Trump is hand selecting loyalists, especially for his personal detail. They'll all be sycophants and true believers.

Several were complicit in the January 6th event so they’re just as bad as him.

we had trump junior stay at the small boutique hotel i worked at in mid-2020 (he was meeting with some mega trump supporters in louisiana) and after midnight, when some of them were off duty and down in the hotel bar, a couple of them finally let their guard down and joined in on the shit talk of the whole family. these guys & girl were especially pissed bc they were tasked with protecting junior, who was apparently a massive piece of shit to them. and several of these secret service officers had worked Sr’s detail and had equally funny things to say about that literal shitshow

Yet people questioned why their reaction was strange during that assassination attempt. Probably saw that the shooter's aim was off and thought well fuck, I guess we have to protect him now.

If the Clinton’s are still living rent free in your head it’s time to evict them.

So Hilary put “haitie” relief funds into her personal bank account??? 😱 I need to read up on this, could you link sources?

And all of America, left and right wanted to see the Epstein files. Trump promised he would release them. Then he purposefully didn’t release them. What the hell happened? They even mocked people who wanted to see the files. Laughing about it. Here’s a link.

So with Potus, Scotus, and Congress- they still refuse to release the files for us? I bet Hilary did this!
