Lawmakers Question Whether Enough is Being Done to Protect Donald Trump | EWTN News Nightly

About this sermon

A second apparent assassination attempt on former President Donald Trump has many lawmakers questioning whether there is enough security for Donald Trump. The former president and other Republicans are placing the blame squarely on the rhetoric being expressed by Democrats leading up to the election. Lawmakers on both sides of the aisle condemn the latest incident, stating political violence has no place in the US. Even those on the first assassination attempt task force are scratching their heads saying the secret service needs to step up its efforts to protect the former president better. Representative Jared Moskowitz says, "The idea that they haven't changed the protocols and we're still giving him the same sort of protection in these outdoor areas is unacceptable. So, look, if the Secret Service now gets the point. Right. And they're now going to change their protocols. Well, congratulations. But it should have happened after the first attempt two months ago." Republicans say Trump is not going away and the rhetoric that's fueling the heat on Trump needs to stop.
