Concerns over Secret Service Security

The Secret Service is under increased scrutiny following an assassination attempt against Donald Trump, where a suspect was arrested for allegedly pointing a rifle at a golf course where Trump was playing. This incident marks the second close call in less than ten weeks, prompting questions about the agency's ability to effectively protect the former president. Trump’s golf outings create particular challenges for security due to his predictable routine and the locations he chooses, which makes it easier for potential attackers. Ronald Rowe Jr., acting head of the Secret Service, emphasized the need for more resources to ensure the agency can fulfill its protective duties effectively as the presidential election approaches.
