Anyone with half a brain should know not to trust a thing he says. Yeah, if I were looking for intelligence info from him, I’d want the documents, too, not his word.
We also have never had a president end up a convicted felon. Personally I think that should warrant withdrawing secret service protections. Obviously he probably should keep the detail. But also fuck his traitor ass.
I don’t know what it would take for them not to provide that protection… but… I don’t know that it’s actually obligated so much as… heavily insisted upon.
Heh. I’m not sure the secret service even needs to.
At a certain point, “we’re withdrawing protection” needs to be on the table.
Unfortunately, secret service protection isn’t just about physically protecting him. It’s also about protecting the information that he knows.
How’s that working out? Pretty sure that they didn’t protect a bunch of info at his home.
Didn’t some of them even assist in covering for Jan 6th and or the documents fiasco ?
Deleted texts on SS phones say “yes”
Yes. Maybe he goes to a Supermax to ensure no more leaks.
It’s because there was a “no guns in the shitter” policy in place at Mar-A-Lago.
Ah. Good point, yes.
Though… I can think of cheaper ways to protect that information. We won’t talk about that, though. Don’t need a visit from the FBI.
I’m willing to gamble on him not actually remembering anything useful to those who would pay for it, hence the document hoarding.

That’s why he needs to be locked up at ADX Florence.
Is it?
In a normal situation yes. The protection is there to deal with leaks via kidnapping and interrogation.
Trump is, at least in semi-recent history, the only president who believes that the rules of state secrets do not apply to him.
I believe legally the President and their family get SS protection for life.

Huh I thought it was changed to 10yrs, but it was reverse in 2012 to be permanent.
For those who thought like I did.
They use the phrase, ‘by law, the secret service is authorized to protect…’, but it only lasts until his children are 16. The spouse is authorized until they remarry (i never understood that,).
I don’t know what it would take for them not to provide that protection… but… I don’t know that it’s actually obligated so much as… heavily insisted upon.
USSS is the abbreviation for US Secret Service.

Yeah, normally, but this is Trump’s guard we’re talking about.
