Trump is on the Spaces with Elon.
One thing I've noticed for a while is that amid all of the Secret Service failings and inside-job theories or concerns, Trump hasn't really been promoting those failings and theories at all. And this interview confirmed it- he's actively pushing back on them.
Elon tried for like 15 minutes to coax out some thoughts from Trump regarding Secret Service incompetence or corruption and yet Trump just kept defending the Secret Service for doing their work and saying that yeah they should explore why someone got on the roof, but that it's chaotic and he's thankful for the counter-snipers, that he's thankful for those that physically shield him, etc. He's literally more defending of them than me as a witness that was like, "wtf happened here?"
Trump presumably travels with mostly the same SS team and gets to know them. He's hesitant to personally criticize them in a way that many of his followers have.
I found that interesting because he routinely throws lawyers and other insiders out that defended him once they stop being useful. But things are different when you have a team physically shielding you. Like fellow soldiers in war. So far he won't touch them at all.

The SS team that he personally interacts with may not be the same as broader SS management.
Also, remember that Trump needs these guys to continue to like him to stay alive. Even if he had his doubts he may have no choice but to praise them.
He needs them now more than ever if he wants to continue to be chaotic
Not hard for the guards to shoot the boss. Watch the video of Secret Service waving off the security detail for JFK. I wouldn’t talk shit about them openly either.
Strange he hasn’t criticised the whole mess at all
yeah i always found that peculiar. that was his position from basically day one, too.
if i were trump i imagine i'd want some heads to roll etc but you dont hear it.
Well if there was a mole or weak spot I wouldn’t shine a public spotlight on it either until I was sure.
Breaking News: Trump’s behavior is odd. His statements don’t always make sense and he often contradicts himself.
Oh wait.
I wonder if he asked about his miraculous healing ear? 😏
I think its a good sign if his bridge-building diplomacy as a statesman for the people. Yeah the SS failed and probably setup to do so. Clearly deep state insiders who will lose everything are terrified. And frankly should be. There is a special place in hell reserved for them. Lets help them on their way.
Sounds like a survival strategy. Would you speak out when they surround you every day and their business is killing?
The irony about Elon asking someone else about corruption and incompetence 🤣
I noticed that too. Good & mature politics perhaps but 🤔
Trump had every right to go scorched earth but he didn’t much to the chagrin of his enemies. He took the higher ground and earned a lot of respect in doing so.
Does Trump have the X gene? Some uncommon healing factor?
What's up with the ear???
Hello??
This is one possibility. Privately he could be totally different toward them 🤔
