Although we’re all anticipating Trump’s upcoming opening, it’s fair to ask whether all the needed safety measures are being taken to ensure his protection in light of the recent attempted suicides.

Dan Bongino, a former Secret Service agent, isn’t confident.
” I’ve been getting a ton of queries,’ Dan, how do you feel about this commencement?’ ‘ You think it’s going to be risk-free?’ And the answer is complicated. That’s not an simple yes or no issue”.
In response to the latest Secret Service and FBI presentation, Bongino stated frankly,” The opening is probably not safe”.
He continued to say that while he was speculating, his concern was rooted in the stupidity of those in charge of important government functions like the FBI and Secret Service. Bongino’s practice gives him a distinctive view on safety practices, but even with that, he’s not comfortable in what’s being planned for the opening.
Bongino wasn’t really speaking off the cuff. He made reference to his own experience with national security, pointing out that during Barack Obama’s primary inauguration, he was in charge of securing the most crucial portion of the route. He explained how the way was simple and that he had the responsibility of managing the area where Obama may leave the car. This knowledge is significant because it demonstrates Bongino’s deep understanding of the importance of the work and the opening protection.

Why, then, does Bongino feel so nervous about Trump’s health then? He is concerned about the security personnel at the highest levels of the FBI and the Secret Service. He has little confidence that they can handle the responsibility, especially when considering their” known incompetence” . ,
While Bongino wishes he could be briefed on the security plan to give him more assurance, he remains wary. I may be comfortable if President Trump were to stay in the car and abandon the walk, Bongino said, expressing his concerns about the security of the customary inauguration route where the leader generally walks. I have not been informed about the safety program. I wish I was. Because I’ve already done it before and want to see what they’re looking at, I want to examine it myself. I am completely aware of how it should appear.
Bongino raises troubling claims from the FBI, which furthers his problems. The organization asserted that” We are not already tracking any specific or credible challenges to the annual meeting or to the Capitol complex.” This declaration sounded the alarm for Bongino. He is convinced that there must be risks to the opening, and the FBI’s rejection just deepens his fear.
” Whatever the FBI says these days, I tend to believe the opposite”, he said.  ,

Given the FBI’s record report on handling problems related to Trump, Bongino doesn’t believe its claims, and I have to agree.
The FBI and Secret Service both lack transparency and precision, which only adds to the growing uneasiness. If the FBI had been open about” tracking very serious risks,” Bonino had at least know that they were taking the position seriously. Otherwise, he must wonder whether it is really prepared because he doesn’t acknowledge any risks.
Bongino believes the FBI is telling the truth and that protection will be enough, but his strong suspicion of the company, especially in the eyes of Donald Trump, leads him to think then. According to Bongino,” there’s no reason to trust the FBI when it comes to something involving Donald Trump,” citing the FBI’s contentious history and past scandals involving the then-president.
