Trump will speak from behind bulletproof glass at outdoor rallies
US Secret Service plans to surround podium with ballistic glass after former president survived assassination attempt

He’ll look so weird and weak all barricaded behind all that bulletproof glass, and he’ll hate it— awesome
I think he personally requested this. There are reports that he's really rattled by the event, and regularly watches a recording of it "over and over again".
That… doesn’t seem consistent with what we know of Trump… although, it sounds like a predictable deflection by his handlers to make him seem more personable, more… human.
A narcissist like Trump would continue to believe he’s invincible and is the one insisting on these huge, open rallies to begin with. They feed his ego, and he can’t live without them. So, the Secret Service has compromised with his campaign to only allow them if he’s as shielded as the Pope any time he’s in an open public space.
And, no matter who tries to convince him, he refuses to believe that a lot of capable people very well may make another attempt against his life.
It's theatre. Because he thinks he's important.
For extra safety, I'd replace the bulletproof glass panes with steel sheets.
Six of them, to make sure he's protected from all sides.
And weld them together for extra reinforcement. Airtight, to protect him from gas attacks.
lil bitch
Seriously. The reports of him having PTSD are clearly true. Couldn't happen to a worse dude.
Bans guns and hides in a pope mobile, while telling people "The democrats are hiding and they want to ban your guns!!!"
I'm surprised people are still using guns for this and not just flying a drone packed with explosives.
There is probably a lot of high tech jamming and EW equipment used by the secret service
They saw a shooter climbing on a roof and were like: hah, that's interesting. And now you're telling me the use some high tech equipment to prevent assassination by drones. Riiiight.
Ai copilot? Wouldn't do much against an emp, I suppose.
Get it going on a ballistic trajectory out of range of the target and then it doesn't matter if it gets jammed.
But you could use an optical guided drone. Oh wait it's a TOW. We're using TOWs again.
For your typical loner right wing nutjob, guns are still way more accessible.

This is why we've been sending ukrania so much money. /s
Coward
And after telling mass shooting victims to just get over it.
Nothing says "everybody loves me!" better than surrounding oneself with bulletproof materials 🤣
first we got the Pope mobile and now we get the trump cage? epic
He finally got his walls!
If your takes are so bad that you are at a high risk of being domed by your own crowds, why bother even running?
Well that ruins the fun.
