US presidential candidate Donald Trump will receive the same security as President Biden before the election. Trump’s team had requested military aircraft and vehicles. Biden says the Secret Service will have to protect her in the coming weeks as if she were a sitting president.
The request from Trump’s campaign team continues after he… July he was nearly killed at a campaign rally in Butler, Pennsylvania. In September a man was arrested who was hiding with a gun at the golf course where Trump was playing golf. It is suspected that he wants to attack the former president.
Trump himself also said end of last month that Iran had “serious plans” to kill him. The American intelligence services would have told him about this.
A report published last month says that the Secret Service made mistakes in protecting Trump during the attempted attack on Butler. For example, the size of the place where Trump spoke was too big and action was taken too late.
Armored plane and blood-proof glass
According to The New York Times, Trump’s team has been in contact with the White House chief of staff and the Secret Service. He said Trump has already had to move or cancel several campaign events because of a lack of proper security.
That is why, according to the presidential candidate’s team, there is a need for military aircraft that can fire missiles from the sky, as well as special military vehicles that are usually only used by a sitting president.
The Washington Post reports, based on anonymous emails and sources, that requests have also been made to ban flights over Trump’s homes and campaign meetings. In addition, blood-resistant glass should be available at these meetings.
President Biden seems to agree with these requests: “Give him everything he needs,” the president told reporters. He said Trump is already “protected at the highest level.”
