Security Expert Criticizes Secret Service Chief For Trump's Safety

Donald Trump to testify in New York civil fraud trial

An executive security expert with four decades of experience in the field has strongly criticized Secret Service chief Kimberly Cheatle for the security failure that led to an attempted assassination of former President Trump. The expert pointed out that Cheatle's explanation that agents did not man a nearby sloped roof, from which the shooter fired, was unacceptable.

The expert emphasized that the agency needs to address the security breach and take necessary actions to prevent such incidents in the future. He highlighted the seriousness of the situation, noting that Trump was just inches away from potential death due to the security lapse.

Expressing concern over the lack of proper security measures, the expert called for a thorough investigation and suggested that terminations should be considered for those responsible for the lapse. He also criticized Cheatle for prioritizing diversity over competence in the agency, which he believed contributed to the security failure.

The expert underscored the need for a comprehensive security plan and proper deployment of agents to prevent assailants from getting close to high-profile individuals like the former president. He described the incident as an 'epic fail' and emphasized the importance of holding individuals accountable for their actions.

In conclusion, the security expert called for a reevaluation of the Secret Service's security protocols and urged for swift actions to ensure the safety of public figures under their protection.
