M. Secret service notice the barrel of a Rifle Poking through a fence at trump international Golf Club trump was somewhere between the fifth in six hole at the time when you look at the map, you see a roadway very close to holes five and six which it would make sense that that would be a location if youre going to try to take a shot of be closer and would give you an opportunity to do so and also give you an escape route. The Secret Service fired on the man with the gun before he fled a quick Thinking Witness at the Scene Provided Authorities with a description of the suspect as well as a picture of the Car And License Plate Martin County deputies detained ralph a short time later cnn obtained this Body Cam Video of ralphs arrest.

Ralph also mentioned trump in his Book Titled Ukraines unwinnable War Ralph traveled to ukraine in 2022 and encouraged others to sign up to fight.

Still unanswered questions remain, including how safe is trump and others, given the current political environment, every everywhere the foreign president goes and the current president and the other candidates go, theyre going to have to start thinking differently about the Threat Assessment for this Press Conference to start, one other quick note from court, we know that Ryan Routh told the judge that he has zero funds he was making about 3,000 before his arrest. And the only two the things he has in his possession are two trucks that he has in hawaii. So the judge did assign him a public defender who made no comment to cnn, pam back to you, right . Randi kaye. Thank you. And again, were waiting for Law Enforcement to give us an update on this second apparent attempted Assassination Attempt against Donald Trump. Thanks, randy. And with us now is cnn national correspondent kristen holmes, cnn chief Law Enforcement and Intelligence Analyst John Miller, and former Secret Service agent, jason russell, kristen to bring you when theres some new reporting that trump is supposed to be meeting with the Acting Director of the Secret Service today. What more do we know about this meeting . Well, were still trying to learn details as to whether or not that meeting has wrapped. We originally told it was happening early this afternoon, but there are still a lot of questions that the campaign in has for the Acting Director during this sitdown. Now whether or not those senior advisers are also going to be present or if its just going to be the Acting Director and Donald Trump, we dont have it it clear read on that, but there are a lot of questions as to how exactly this could happen. Again, another part of this, how exactly something like this could happen when Donald Trumps schedule was not public how is it possible that someone was able to lay in wait for 11, 12 hours on a property which Donald Trump was going to attend one of his properties. How was that not spot . But beforehand by either local Law Enforcement or by Secret Service. Now, i assume some of this will also be asked during that Press Conference, but there are a lot of real question since as to how exactly Donald Trump is going to be protected moving forward, particularly as we know that after that first Disaster Nation Attempt in butler, pennsylvania, Donald Trump Got A very big increase in his Security Apparatus, not just from Secret Service in terms of Agents On the ground, in terms of a Counter Assault Team that was traveling with him a bigger motorcade he now includes a van as well as potentially a Counter Assault Team, as well as an ambulance, but also in terms of local Law Enforcement, they have closed down streets. They have had more local Law Enforcement. President at his various Campaign Events and here in West Palm Beach. And yet this was still able to happen. So there are still a lot of questions as to what exactly Donald Trumps campaign and his Life Security Look like moving forward. All right. And jason on that note, i want to bring you in because as kristen noted, we learned that the suspect was apparently in the area for more than 11 hours, up until he was spotted by the Secret Service agent. It raises the question why he wasnt spotted sooner by Law Enforcement. Thankfully, he was eventually, but today, President Biden said the Secret Service needs more personnel. Is that the issue at hand here . What do you make of this i think you know, it is a Personnel Issue in one in one respect, the other issue is they were treating this like an off the Record Movement, even though it really wasnt an off the Record Movement, he typically goes and golfs. So it was a very predicted well off the Record Movement. I think part of it is a staffing issue. Part of it is just adjusting the way they do protection based on this new Threat Level that were seeing today with former President Trump just to follow up on that, what is the difference between an off the Record Movement and, you know, one thats on the record so off the record is not on the schedule. Right. The theory behind that is so many doesnt know where youre going. They will be able to set up and plan for an attack. But this particular Golf Course is of course he plays all the time. So even though its technically an off the Record Movement, its a very predictable off the Record Movement. I think thats what allowed this attack or to be able to get their weight for 12 hours and essentially guess that former President Trump will be Playing Golf that day and was able to be in that area. But im gonna get to you in a second job just to follow up. But i mean by that is what is the difference in terms of the Security Apparatus for an off the Record Movement . I mean, thats on his schedule like what happened yesterday . And something that is an event thats on his schedule. What is the difference of the Security Measures yes. So for an off the record moment, theres gonna be no advanced done. Right. Its score, its going to be very limited. Theyre going to show up just ahead of time or one thats on the schedule. Theres going to be four to 56 days of an advanced done multiple different groups doing advances motorcades for the site for an off the Record Movement thats going to be just a very brief advanced right before Rival Big Cursory Search is there not nearly as indepth as something that was on the schedule. John, to bring you in on this police found evidence of this government in the bushes around the Golf Course and sks Style Rifle with a scope, two backpacks that had ceramic tiles to augment a Bulletproof Vest or gopro. What does all of that tell you about the suspects planning it tells us that the suspect was planning. He came prepared where he set up his rifle and rested it inbetween the lynx that Chain Link Fence to steady his shot. The two backpacks that had the ceramic plates, which are the plates you put in front of a Bulletproof Vest to stop a high Caliber Round were on either side of the rifle. Basically, he had created a ballistic bunker for himself as its not. Interrupt you okay. Were gonna go to this Law Enforcement Press Conference okay. Just a couple little housekeeping things here in case you havent been with me at a Press Conference . We. Meaning the gentleman that are up here, which is the u. S. Attorney fbi Secret Service. Were going to give you everything that we have. Were gonna give you the latest updates. Theyre going to tell you whats going on with the investigation everything. We remember were going to do a limited amount of questions. Makeup, good all right. Dont get into what if and all of this get. Legitimate questions. We got it okay. Everybody ready okay were here today to give an update on the investigation in regards to the incident at trump international . With me is the u. S. Attorney the fbi, and the Secret Service just to give you a little information as you well know the road down there on summit still blocked off it will be blocked off probably for the remainder of today. And probably a good portion of tomorrow until some of the investigative things need to be done and finished. But were accommodating people in and out, getting them to the library, getting them to the post office. So the public is not going to be that far inconvenienced the Security Level at maralago is the highest it can possibly be now the Road Closures are back in place and will remain there. The checkpoints are in place and my commitment to the Secret Service is to give them every possible resource from pbs. So once they determine the level of security that they need, they will get all the resources as possible. So having said that, ill let you talk to the u. S. Attorney thank you Afternoon Us today.

This country was reminded of the heightened and dynamic Threat Environment<\/a> the united states Secret Service<\/a>. And its protectees face on a daily basis immediately following the Assassination Attempt<\/a> of former president donald j. Trump on July 13<\/a> the Secret Service<\/a> move to increase assets to an already enhanced Security Posture<\/a> for the former president in the days that followed President Biden<\/a> made it clear that he wanted the highest levels of protection for former President Trump<\/a> and for Vice President<\/a> harris the Secret Service<\/a> move to sustain increases in assets and the level of protections sought on those things were in Place Yesterday<\/a> at approximately 1 30 p. M. You former President Trump<\/a> was Playing Golf<\/a> during an off the Record Movement<\/a> to the trump international Golf Course<\/a>, a Secret Service<\/a> Advance Agent<\/a> supporting the front edge of the agencies layered approach to protection and encountered an individual attempting to secrete himself and the woodline. This happened the alleged gunman was on the public side of the fence near the sixth green a layered approach of security is integral to the Secret Service<\/a>s protective methodologies and its also the key to our success as former President Trump<\/a> was moving through the fifth fairway across the course and Out Of Sight<\/a> of the six green, the agent who is visually sweeping the area of the sixth green while the Subject Armed<\/a> with what he perceived to be a rifle and immediately discharged his firearm the subject who did not have line of sight to the former president , fled the scene. He did not fire or get off any shots. At our agents with reports of gunfire, the former president s close Protection Detail<\/a> immediately evacuated the president to a safe location the protective methodologies of the Secret Service<\/a> were affected yesterday. The former president s protective apparatus allowed for the early identification of the thread and led to a safe evacuation the increased assets directed by the president , by President Biden<\/a> were in Place Yesterday<\/a>. These included the Countersniper Team<\/a> elements counter surveillance, Place And Counter<\/a> surveillance Agents On<\/a> the exterior Counter Assault Team<\/a>s partner with local tactical assets from the Palm Beach County<\/a> Sheriffs Office<\/a> and counter unmanned aerial system elements all of these entities were present yesterday. And while all of these assets were in place, as ive said publicly, we must satisfy the basic requirements of the Secret Service<\/a>s protective methodologies in partnership with local Law Enforcement<\/a>. We did just that and the agents hyper vigilance and the details swift action was textbook. And i commend them and our partners for an exemplary response and keeping former President Trump<\/a>s safe and i will tell you, having served and local Law Enforcement<\/a> and Palm Beach County<\/a> i can state that i am tremendously impressed and appreciative for all the efforts of the Palm Beach County<\/a> Sheriffs Office<\/a> and Sheriff Snyder<\/a> with the Martin County<\/a> Sheriffs Office<\/a> . But what was critical to this was the quick reaction, the response, the hyper vigilance of the men and women of the united states Secret Service<\/a> who since July 13<\/a>, have been rising to meet in unprecedented and hybrid dynamic Threat Environment<\/a> they are rising to this moment. And i could not be more proud of them. And the way they have executed not only yesterday, but what theyre doing today, and what they are doing tomorrow and what they will always do because it is their duty. Thank you. Okay all right. Well, go slow here, folks. I dont everybody do it once asked who you want to answer the question, then get the Question Question<\/a> for you, director is there any evidence to suggest that the suspect knew that Donald Trump<\/a> would be on the Golf Course<\/a> at that time. And was the Golf Course<\/a> searched thoroughly before . For the foreign president s arrival so at this time it was an off the Record Movement<\/a>, meaning it was not on the former president s Official Schedule<\/a> and what i go back to is the layered approach the elements and the methodologies of the Secret Service<\/a>. There was a front element. It did its job sweeping ahead of the president. Thats what identified this individual who was in that woodline and the swift action of that agent doing his job, pushing out ahead, sweeping while the president was behind him, several hundred yards and several holds away Out Of Sight<\/a> from the gunman, did his job and that was what alerted did the detail. And the swift action is what triggered that question is were there any evidence to suggest that the suspect knew that Donald Trump<\/a> was going to be on that Golf Course<\/a> at that time, based on what i know now and its an active investigation. I dont have any information on that on that. Perry parker, how many times did your agents go around the perimeter and scope out the Golf Course<\/a> . During the 12 hours of this guy was holed up so we at this wasnt off the record. Movement. It wasnt a site that was on his scheduled. It wasnt part of his schedule, so there was no posting up of it because he wasnt supposed to have gone there in the first place President Trump<\/a> on your findings so far and has his campaign asked for any changes in his security going forward after yesterday so sorry so i ive had a conversation with the former President Weave<\/a> explained and weve worked with the campaign the president is where that he has highest levels of protection that the Secret Service<\/a> is providing him constantly evaluate based on threat and yesterday, what we show is that our agents and our protective methodologies, and theres a lot of tactical assets in place. Things that have been put in place as a result of what happened 60 days ago. Those elements are working and that demonstrates the redundancies that we have. And so we constantly evaluate will, of course, look at this and see what lessons learned from it but as of right now, we are constantly evaluating that threat. And if we need to ratchet up, additionally, we will yes sir do we know when ralph arrived in florida in general when he arrived in Palm Beach<\/a> the area thats a question probably for the fbi. Then at the Golf Course<\/a> prior to this scoping it out were in the process collecting a lot of evidence and that will be part of that investigation to determine his whereabouts going back quite some time right. About what thats part of the investigation as well. Again, thats going to be a little bit challenged until were able to determine the Serial Number<\/a> on that gun. So were hopeful to be able to do measure of illness. Were still looking into that the highest level of protection that they would lock down the Golf Course<\/a>. Was that in this community . Patient then being that President Biden<\/a> ordered the highest level of protection do you want to disrupt . Was ok. So heres the deal. When it comes to Secret Service<\/a> protection. We provide the highest level. So for example, yesterday, Counter Assault Team<\/a> elements, im not going to go into the number of personnel that we have out there, but we have the highest levels from Secret Service<\/a> risks. When we work with the Palm Beach County<\/a> Sheriffs Office<\/a>, like, for example, yesterday during that emergency action response, we had their local tactical team Assets Partner<\/a> with our local tactic tactical team assets. We had their Helicopter Up<\/a> in the year, providing us 360 and situational awareness the overhead for any if there were any potential threats coming to add us. So what we did yesterday was exercise our Emergency Plan<\/a> based on the number of tactical assets and the highest level of protection that we are providing the sheriff and i have talked now clearly, when you go down Southern Boulevard<\/a> right now and youre tried to get over to Palm Beach<\/a> . And you see the robust presence thats existing outside of maralago, the heavy uniform presence, the additional assets of the Secret Service<\/a> for those of you that were here in 20 in 2017 when the President Wasnt<\/a> in office. When you look at that footprint now and you look at it today . Theres not much difference there. Theres heavy uniform presence out there. And again, when i go back to as yesterday was an off the Record Movement<\/a> off the record and the President Wasnt<\/a> even really supposed to go. There was not on his Official Schedule<\/a>. And so we put together Security Plan<\/a> and that Security Plan<\/a> worked Special Agent<\/a> daldry, in terms of him being in the vicinity, based on his phone records, is there any evidence to show that routh was in the vicinity in the area before sunday. And when you say in the vicinity, does that mean right there at that spot in those bushes or could it have been down the street at a restaurant . It was in very close proximity to where he was spotted by the Secret Service<\/a> in terms of your first question . Whether he was there earlier. Our investigation is still working to determine that well, whoa, were going to do to bore, you get one only two more, you get one. Okay. We understand that the Secret Service<\/a> has asked congress for additional resources this is the bunker roundly, have you received those resorts so thank you for that question. So we are working. Look the Secret Service<\/a> operates under a paradox of Zerofail Mission<\/a> but also that we have done more with less for decades and this goes back many, many, many, many decades, right . What i can tell you is that we have immediate needs right now and we have great support not only from President Biden<\/a> and you saw his public Statement Today<\/a> where he said that hes going to direct his staff to make sure that the Secret Service<\/a> has the resources, its needs were having fantastic conversations with members of congress. Ive been up to The Hill<\/a> last week. Were continuing to have those conversations. But the long and short of it is this coming out of butler . I have ordered a paradigm shift. The Secret Service<\/a>s protective methodologies work, and they are sound. And we saw that yesterday. But the way we are positioned right now in this dynamic Threat Environment<\/a> it has given me guidance to say, you know what, we need to look at, what our protective methodology is. We need to get out of a reactive model and get to a readiness model. There could be another geopolitical event that could put the united states into a kinetic conflict or some other some other issue that may result in additional responsibilities and protectees of the united states Secret Service<\/a> and so we are working, we are making information available to all of our partners. And i just want to say that the commitment of congress to the Secret Service<\/a> throughout the years has been tremendous and we will continue to work with them. And secretary mayorkas, who support and making sure that were getting what we need has been phenomenal. He is one of our biggest champions in our advocate. And so were having these conversations and i feel confident that we will get what we need. We have immediate needs, we have future needs to i need to make sure that our counter snipers are the best trained countersniper in the world but they are exactly doing what we need them to do, and that they match counterparts in the military interior. One forces and right now, we are working with congress to make sure that we get those for our training facility. We also have unnecessary need for to make sure that were getting the personnel that we have and that requires us to be able to have the the funding to be able to hire more people. You cant just give me money and say, were going to make sure that everybody gets overtime because the men and women of the Secret Service<\/a> right now, we are redlining them and they are rising to this moment. They are meeting the challenges right now. And if you look back out with their body of work over the last 60 days republican National Convention<\/a> in milwaukee the republican National Convention<\/a> in chicago. Visit of prime Minister Netanyahu<\/a> to Washington Dc<\/a> and to West Palm Beach<\/a>, which Palm Beach County<\/a> Sheriffs Office<\/a> supported then we go into the president ial debate in philadelphia last week. And for those in the media that had been to a national special Security Event<\/a>, if you saw the national Constitution Center<\/a> last week, what you saw was pretty much a mini national special Security Event<\/a> with the number of assets that were on that perimeter and so our folks are rising to this moment but it requires all of us to be able to have good conversations and make sure that were getting the Secret Service<\/a> where it needs to be. And im confident that we will achieve that because we dont have an alternative success we have to have it every day. We cannot have failures and in order to do that, were going to have some hard conversations with congress and were going to achieve that last question on more, Special Agent<\/a> In Charge<\/a> at the fbi . Yes, sir did he act alone to the out some kind of help at this point . Were still exploring that, investigating that our investigation will determine that we do not have information that hes been acting with anyone else at present. How long hes been in florida . Oh, you snuck one investigation is still determining that. Thank you hi anyhow know thats it. Were not going to were not going to do anymore. All right. You Got A<\/a> lot of information there. The last thing i will tell you is like the director of the Secret Service<\/a>s and the president called me last night, President Trump<\/a> he thanked me for everything that we did along with two Secret Service<\/a>. He knows we work great together. Any feel safe thats important because he is and what we did yesterday proves that the system can work because the suspect didnt even get close to getting around off and we apprehended him and brought them to justice. So were were very, very proud of that. Thank you, folks for being here. I appreciate it an update there from the Secret Service<\/a>, the fbi, and the Palm Beach County<\/a> Sheriffs Office<\/a>, also the u. S. Attorney talking after yesterdays Assassination Attempt<\/a> to Donald Trump<\/a> but answering some questions, lets bring back cnns John Miller<\/a> that certainly stood out to me. When you heard there from one of the Law Enforcement<\/a> officials that Donald Trump<\/a> was not in the line of sight of the suspect yesterday, but none. Nonetheless, the suspect, as we learned, was there around 12 hours close to where he was when he was initially . When he was caught by the Secret Service<\/a> and he was within 500 yards of trump what stood out to you john raises a lot of question why would he be there 12 hours . I mean, this is based on cell phone tracking, so we have to ask ourselves a couple of questions, which is thats based on his phone was his phone there . So it was transmitting for the gopro cameras so he could make his observations and reconnaissance from nearby in the car or was he there that whole time . The Plastic Bag<\/a> of food they found in the car indicates that he might have been holed up there camping out waiting for it. But i mean, he knew that Trump Wouldnt<\/a> be Playing Golf<\/a> at two in the morning, where six in the morning, right in the morning so theres a real question of what was he doing there all that time, was It Reconnaissance<\/a> . Just trying to figure out wheres the best spot . Wheres he going to get through . Wheres he going to get away . So we learned some Things Today<\/a> in the Press Conference<\/a> about where theyll find those answers. But we also learned they dont have those answers yet we also learned that from the fbi that there was a previously closed tip about the suspect. The fbi said that they had followed up with the person who brought the tip forward and they couldnt verify, so they just pass it along to local Law Enforcement<\/a> in honolulu. What did you make of that . I make of that that they found the person who probably gave the tip and the person said it wasnt me and therefore, i cant give you any information which the question is going to be. Did they do the followup they needed to do did they go to him and say, do you have a gun . And if so, where is it or did they close the case saying we have no complainant . Thats something thats going to be reviewed. Im sure right. Because the tip was that he was a felon with a firearm. That was the initial tip that came through according to the fbi, and then it didnt go anywhere. I also wondering, im wondering what you think about what we heard from the Acting Director<\/a> of the Secret Service<\/a> when he said, we need to shift to react from reactive mode to readiness to readiness model. What did you make of that i made of that that he was saying the model we saw that prevented this attack. If thats what was about to happen, is one thats working, but he also gave a nod to the idea they need more people all right, John Miller<\/a>, thank you so much. Thanks.

But critics and or Chris Coons<\/a> of delaware joins us now he is also cochair Vice President<\/a> harriss president ial campaign we learned a lot in this Press Conference<\/a> from Law Enforcement<\/a> officials in terms of the assets that have been given to Donald Trump<\/a> and Kamala Harris<\/a> in the wake of the first Assassination Attempt<\/a> against Donald Trump<\/a>. And that its at the highest level, it could be for Donald Trump<\/a> right now. What is your reaction to all that were learning . Well, my first reaction payloads that of Course Violence<\/a> has no place in american politics. And i think its important that President Biden<\/a> and Vice President<\/a> harris, myself, and many others in the senate, in the house and national leadership of different kinds have called for an end to the aggressive rhetoric of this campaign. Have called for there to be more resources for the Secret Service<\/a>. As you just heard in that Press Conference<\/a> of former President Trump<\/a>, is being provided with the highest level of protection and i think its important that we work together to make sure that anyone whos got Secret Service<\/a> protection is protected successfully. This is a difficult time, and i pray that we dont have another Assassination Attempt<\/a> on either candidate today, trump blamed rhetoric from Biden And Harris<\/a> on his truth social platform. He said, because of this communist left rhetoric, the bullets are flying and it will only get worse. Your reaction. Well, we know thats not true. We know that frankly, rhetoric has been heated on certainly former President Trump<\/a> side. And i dont think that we can ascribe any particular motive to this the person whos just been arrested, the person who is the alleged attempted assassin here he registered as a republican and i think voted for Donald Trump<\/a> in 2016. Hes gone back and forth with a variety of rantings from an unhinged person. And i dont think we can ibhimotives in this attempted shooting in West Palm Beach<\/a> to any particular view or political agenda, do you fight . Theres appropriate sense of urgency about what is happening to attend to the assassinations he is this a new era of political violence . Were unfortunately its not. As you know, in the years that ive served in congress, weve seen way too many acts of political violence. Ill never forget my friend Jeff Flake<\/a> coming back to the capital splattered in the blood of steve scalise, who had been shot and nearly killed in an incident here in Washington Governor Gretchen Whitmer<\/a> was the target of a kidnapping and intended Assassination Attempt<\/a> speaker pelosi, her husband was attacked at home and hit with a hammer. So hard and that nearly killed him so in the brief time, i guess not so brief, 14 years that ive been in congress. There have been too many close calls and too many incidents of potential political violence here in our country. And i think weve had too many close calls and thats why we need to both tone down the rhetoric of this campaign and provide greater resources to those who are productive. Sandra Chris Coons<\/a>.

Due in large part to this moment from Donald Trump<\/a> in the president ial debate. In, springfield. Theyre eating the dogs, the people that came in, theyre eating the cats. Youll have seen people until it let me just say here, this is the people on television cleared my dog was taken and used for food ohios republican governor Mike Dewine<\/a> joins us now, governor, thanks for coming on. You have called the false claims ridiculous and said they need to stop. How dangerous are these lies . And do you place the blame on trump and his Running Mate<\/a>, j. D. Vance . Well, first of all, the Immigration Issue<\/a> and the Border Issue<\/a> is and fareed very legitimate issue. And i think presence certainly Vice President<\/a> ial candidate have obligation to talk about there fact talking about it this is separate from that but my job i think is to reflect exactly whats going on in springfield. So the mayor tells us that chief of police tells us theres been no no evidence at all if anyone eating a dog or any haitians doing any of that, these patients that are there are legal they worked very, very hard. I met this morning with a number of Business People<\/a> who are employees, haitians, and they tell me that they are really essential to them getting the job done, they worked they worked hard, their family focused the culture in haiti Respects Education<\/a> a great deal. So those are just things i think we need to point out deep place any blame on Donald Trump<\/a> or his Running Mate<\/a> j. D. Vance look, im not here to place blame. Im here to tell what were seeing on the ground and look, there are challenges weve got 15,000 extra people in a town you know, of about 58,000. And theres some real challenges in regard to Health Care<\/a> and theres challenges in regard to driving and other things, but were working very, very closely with Mayor Rue<\/a> and the City Council<\/a> and others in springfield to release work on these problems every single day. So thats thats what i like. The attention to be is on the real problems that we have a challenges we have sprinklers, a great city, and, and what weve seen is a city that has come back a great deal. And because theyve come back, theyve created a lot of jobs and they did it very fast. Asked and so there was not really the capacity for to get the employees other than the haitians who were available after after the pandemic. Thats when they really saw the great need. And thats the story. Thats whats happened. I understand you dont want to place blame on anyone and youre talking about the challenges there and you are asking for more resources for things like Health Care<\/a>. I understand that. But i do want us to listen to what j. D vance, senator, j. D. Vance of ohio told our own Dana Bash Yesterday<\/a> if i have to just do the Meme Create Stories<\/a> so that the american media actually pays attention to the suffering of the american people. Then thats what im going to do. Dana drawing this direct line between the haitians who are in springfield legally to the suffering of americans. There is that fair . Well, i dont think he was talking about fabricating a story. I mean, he right. Yeah. Information but my job is to tell what were seeing on the ground and thats what i do as a governor, we deal with these real problems. There are problems connected with a great deal of surge in migration but i think theyre trying to use that maybe as a way to talk about the bigger, bigger issues and all im saying is there are legitimate issues. I dont think that border has been protected and these big issues, frankly, given the way of us having a discussion, the failure to control the southern border gets in the way of a legitimate discussion. We should be having this country is who should be coming in here legally, that every country has the right to decide that make those choices quickly. Last question i want to take a moment to get your response to the fact that weve now seen two Assassination Attempt<\/a>s against your Partys President<\/a> ial nominee. What do you make of this . Whats horrifying i mean, its absolutely horrifying i know congress will be looking at this again. You know, it seems to me that they dont have enough resources, they dont have enough people. And i think congress will provide the Secret Service<\/a> with whatever they need to protect the president ial candidate. I mean, you have a unique situation. You have Donald Trump<\/a>, who has been president who is running again. He deserves the same type of security that the incumbent president does. And that the democrat Vice President<\/a> does. She was running whos running for president . All need the theres great support and it looks like to me theyre just not enough in their Secret Service<\/a>. People do a great job. Theyre phenomenal, but it seems to me theres not enough all right. And just to be clear, we just learned from that Press Conference<\/a> that both trump and Kamala Harris<\/a> have had the highest levels of Secret Service<\/a> at the direction of President Biden<\/a> since that first Assassination And Attempt<\/a> ohio governor Mike Dewine<\/a>.
