Just Yesterday Routh was able to get within 500 yards of mr. Trump, armed with a semiautomatic rifle, just two months after the former president was shot in another attempt on his life. All that is raising big questions about the level of security around the former president. Hes not the sitting president. If he was, we would have had the entire Golf Course surrounded. Because hes not, security is limited to the areas the Secret Service deems possible, but the Secret Service did exactly what they should have done. They provided exactly what the protection should have been, and their agent did a fantastic job.
