Former Secretary of State Mike Pompeo suggested that the Secret Service does not have trouble with funding resources, arguing instead that proper security for former President Donald Trump can be addressed by President Joe Biden.
The former president survived a second assassination attempt on Sunday, prompting some to call on Congress to fund the Secret Service properly to ensure Trump is safe while campaigning for president. Pompeo argued the two assassination attempts marked “a systemic failure” at this point and that he believes there is “no doubt” that Trump is the most threatened person in the United States’s “senior leadership team.”
