I hope they get to physically drag that Cheeto out kicking and screaming.
Spectre4Prez
Fuck you for screenshotting a paused video.
sadurdaynight
That's Trump's biggest ego boost: having people that have to literally give up their lives to protect his ass.

January 20th circled with glitter pens.

Gosh I hope this doesn't doesn't reduce how effectively the prez is protected. Wouldn't want anything to happen to him in these trying times

Proving their loyalty to dear leader

Proving their loyalty to the office and to the country, no matter how despicable their protectee. I respect their sense of duty.

Well that’s a surprise

So what the fuck are y'all gonna do about him? Seems like some unnecessarily drastic action should be taken.

Can they quit if they don’t like the POTUS?
HenryLongfellowIII
A couple did early on.
AnythingMuchShorter
There are 100s of news stories this comment is relevant to, but once again; trump does not give a shit about anyone but himself.

That’s So surprising golly Gee

They're supposed to have to take bullets for the President, not FROM the President.
bekindtoanimals
This.

Execute Order 66
ObliqueRay
Ok, first write a summary, this isn't a news aggregator. Second what are we supposed to do with a screenshot of a video? Play it?
Boil1337
Who wants to bet the detail assigned to Trump for protection after he is out of office will become the Secret Service shit detail...?
bekindtoanimals
Oh yes- poor bastards
TCGView
Hallie Jackson is so hot.
kanaroney
Can't they prevent him from traveling or something?
catsandcoke
They’re going to enjoy dragging him out
OverthoughtUnderedited
Can we start a Kickstarter to guarantee that outcome?
tiderfish
Nice
echogirltwink
No need. It's literally their job to do so.
imgurimgurimgur1
But if he hadn't have travelled he wouldn't have not won the rigged election that he wasn't going to honor, anyway. Get it?
widiwi
One might think this would be a good time to attempt a fake assassination attempt and get some sympathy.
lindsaver
I was gonna say that now would be a good time for a real assassin to jump in with 130 of his guards away...
widiwi
+1 Careful, you might just give some people ideas :) and maybe someone will report you for abuse for saying that.
KatieVick
Please don’t give anyone any ideas or add fuel to the fire.
widiwi
I'm not the first to think it, and I will not be the last.
YouMealyMouthedCrotchPheasant
Think about it. How can a dead man stand trial?
echonite
Epstein... is that you?
widiwi
How can a FAKE assassination attempt kill a person ?
YouMealyMouthedCrotchPheasant
Sorry I was thinking fake assassination, as in they pretend he's dead but he just goes into hiding.
widiwi
that could also be a strategy, and then he can claim resurection on the 25th december. His fans will love that !
feedthelynx
Sad part is, he Would have people go to all the trouble and effort of taking his death, then pop right back up for attention
StarscreamAndHutch
They clearly suck at everything they do. Their fake would end up actually killing him.
widiwi
hashtagyoureit
Then he’d become a martyr and would live forever. They’d paint murals of him. They’d make him Jesus 2.0
TrueLegateDamar
I mean MAGA hats were already on their knees praying to him during Election Day
widiwi
Also... FAKE it for sympathy !
lindsaver
Voooomittttt
widiwi
don't see many of those around of JFK, or MLK or ...
drainbamage1011
Is this sarcasm? MLK is memorialized all over the place. Maybe not as a messianic figure, but still...
CoderMonkey
But you do see them losing their shit down south when a confederate war hero statue gets replaced.
widiwi
they were up there for such a long time... it's not the same as ending ones favorite white house reality soap opera show.

ToonamiT0M
I often wonder what the Secret Service think of protecting the dipshit who is undermining the Constitution and destroying the country.
Chasmann
Wonder how many of the SS are Trump supporters? Probably higher than you think.
becauseurwrong
Nah they actually require bachelor's degrees
NeoHelios
Going to see some Roman level shit, soon. "Et tu Pence?"
iDragon3
I like the idea of pronouncing it pence-a. Not quite sure why....
Stolf
Psh. Like that pussy would do anything. Mother wouldn't approve
nasukkin
90% of problems in America would go away if we simply abolished the Secret Service.
TheobromineAddict
I think I catch your drift.
xanius
I've said it a couple times already but he's creating a praetorian guard situation if he doesn't bow out easily in January
TheN8
My friend is stupid and asked what Praetorian means...
StarmineRendezvous
damogen
Roman imperial bodyguards, who assassinated a bunch of Roman emperors
TheN8
My friend said thank you.
ILikedTheirOldStuffBetter
Somebody should have told Caligula
BurnieCinders
They did.
ralphie84
They liked the sex
SilverTimeMaker
And Galba, Aurelian, Commodus, Pertinax, Elagabalus and many others. Somebody should've thought about just...stop hiring those guys
HieronymousFlex
They did, that's why the later Romans hired foreign mercenaries as bodyguards instead. (The Varangian Guard)
FourLegsGood
I thought Commodus was killed by a wrestler.
sunnymangoes
And Indira Gandhi
HenryLongfellowIII
And Anwar Sadat.
FourScoreAndSevenBeersAgo
They're going to really, really enjoy kicking his ass out.
BionicRagdoll
I can't even imagine the level of BS they've witnessed. I hope the testify against him next year.
LAMovieDesign
My cousin is on the presidential outfit for the secret service. I can confirm.
echogirltwink
I hope they film it.
Zootsoot
Every time one of my friends gets worried, I point that out. He apparently also treats them like busboys. Bad mistake.
meMarbleMaker
Tazer - ziplock - sidewalk - wash hands. Don't risk getting infected.
IAmTheRealTurinTurambar
It wouldn't surprise me if they're mostly Trumpers. Remember almost half the country voted for this fucktard.
Ristari
Only 70 ish percent of the pop voted so, saying half is misleading
IAmTheRealTurinTurambar
True, he got almost half the vote would probably be more correct.
DeliciousDelilah
I bet they will all go out to celebrate him finally being gone. I so bad for them.
222Infantree
I have some buddies in the USSS. You have no idea how accurate this is!
NERDRAGEohacat
They're actually concerned, largely because Trump is known to be a leaky sieve of sensitive information and there's concerns he'll spill 1/2
NERDRAGEohacat
whatever he knows to foreign entities just to brag, get loans, or other favors to further enrich himself. 2/2
DrJDX
They have to protect him for life unless he refuses the detail. I think he might be encouraged to refuse.
ScrapCode
Hopefully they'll just be standing in front of his cell making sure the camera doesn't malfunction
KirchoffsVoltageLaw
Joe could easily pull the law or whatever back and make it optional.
CMoeBaggins
It is optional.
Kittynomnoms
I this case I kinda think it should be mandatory... Have someone keep an eye on him.
dusa1981
Why would he. He can bill them for life and charge them for staying at his hotel and eating his food. That’s all he cares about.
Beezlebubble
Accidents happen in the home all the time
Stolf
Tax write-offs
drainbamage1011
Does he pay a dime towards the continued SS detail, or is it all taxpayer funded? I suspect he'd take the free option even if they hate him.
Volidon
All taxpayer baby. Great huh? sigh....
drainbamage1011
Yeah, kinda what I figured. Yaaaaaay...
Rogahar
iirc he's planning to refuse and pay for private guards. How he plans to pay for them, I don't know - also, does he lose SS protection if >
Rogahar
> he's convicted of felonies?
Mepharias
We don’t know. There’s no precendent. It’s completely unexplored territory.
clevernametom
According to this, yes https://slate.com/news-and-politics/2018/06/would-a-former-president-get-secret-service-protection-in-prison.html
clevernametom
But seems like it’s something they don’t really have a plan laid out for.
DulothX
That would be hilarious. SS guards outside of a prison cell.
scellers
Can we maybe not call them the SS? I mean ok it's a bit relevant in this case but...
