The U.S. Secret Service has taken the unusual step of transferring some members of President Joe Biden‘s security team to help protect former President Donald Trump following an assassination attempt in July.
As reported by the New York Times, “The Secret Service has stepped up its security for former President Donald Trump in a variety of ways following the assassination attempt on him last month… including temporarily redeploying some of President Biden‘s security team to protect Trump,” citing sources.
Considering Trump’s security, he is currently included in the use of bulletproof glass. It was planned to kill Trump on this day so that incidents like July 13 do not happen in the future. But luckily, he was shot in the ear instead of being shot.
