Secret Service Warned Trump Years Ago Of Safety Risks Of His Golf Outings: Report
The Secret Service had reportedly warned Trump shortly after he became president in 2017 of the possible safety risks of golfing at his own courses because of their proximity to public roads, The Washington Post reported Monday.
Former U.S. officials told The Post that the Secret Service pointed out that if photographers can catch sight of Trump on his golf courses, so could potential gunmen.
But Trump reportedly dismissed the warning and insisted that his golf clubs were safe and that he wanted to keep playing there, posing threats to his safety that only intensified after he left office as there was less security and fewer agents guarding him.
