Now you insult the Secret Service who are well set up to gather intelligence surrounding the visit.
Secret Service
Our Protective Mission
![]()
We play a critical role in protecting U.S. and visiting world leaders, safeguarding U.S. elections through protection of candidates and nominees, and ensuring the security of key facilities and major, national-level events.
Our protective mission dates back to 1901, after the assassination of President William McKinley. Following the tragedy the Secret Service was authorized to protect the President of the United States. In 1906, Congress passed legislation and funds for the Secret Service to provide presidential protection. Over the years the number of our protectees and the scope of the protective mission has expanded in response to the evolving threat environment.

A lot more details in the website.
You don't have a fucking clue about the role and powers of the Secret Service.
Shame on you for your continued ignorance.

Insult. I'm stating a simple fact. Why are they now aware that people will not attempt something stupid in a room full of armed people? (not that I expect you to answer)
