Secret Service ‘Must Provide Protection’ to Trump If He’s Jailed: Spokesperson
True, unless times change....
Newsweek (among dozens of sources) April 19, 2024
A prominent House Democrat has introduced new legislation that would strip felons of Secret Service protection, specifically mentioning former President Donald Trump in case he’s convicted in one or more of his criminal trials.
Mississippi Representative Bennie Thompson, ranking member of the House Committee on Homeland Security, is bringing forth the Denying Infinite Security and Government Resources Allocated toward Convicted and Extremely Dishonorable Former Protectees Act—or the DISGRACED Act—which would terminate Secret Service protection for individuals convicted of either state or local felonies.
They deny Trump's 1st Amendment right, so I have no doubt that they will deny Trump a right to Secret Service protection.
He should vet and hire and pay for his own protection, should lockup ever really occur. Today’s FBI has been corrupted. Not all, but too many. Big Jim Comey had a lot to do with it being made acceptable.
Even if they don’t, he will get even better protection from the most bad ass guys in the prison. There’s no way you’ll get through them. Rules in prison are very different. They’ll love Donald Trump like no other.
Before he was president, more than 200 rap songs mention to Donald Trump has something to aspire to. I can’t wait to see Merchan pop a critical vessel when the prisoners love him.
If they lock him up, he may actually carry the black vote in America by a majority.
The corrupt traitors in D.C. want to put Trump in one of their cages?
Do it!
BTTT
Until Congress changes the Former Presidents Protection Act of 2012.
So how many House members do they need to blackmail in order to approve, miss the vote, or abstain?
Can Mayorkas side-step the law by precedent of federal employees losing government benefits once convicted of a felon?
This sounds like North Korea.
In my many rounds with liberals over various development projects (since the seventies), I was jailed on a equally bs contempt order by a liberal judge. I’m a nobody and my lawyers got me out on a habeas corpus ruling the next day.
If Trump gets sentenced to jail by Juan the marxist, socialist, idiot, another court will stay the order pending appeal and that will be that.
“A prominent House Democrat has introduced new legislation that would strip felons of Secret Service protection”
...and I bet a number of RINO Republicans would vote for that legislation.
When Trump is reelected can he pardon himself?
SS could probably arrest the judge if he puts Trumps life in danger.
If jailed, Trump will be catered to by most inmates. In jail and prison, white collar inmates are at the top of the social order. That will be especially so with Trump.
They are bound by congressional law to defend the president and cannot perform their duties if he is incarcerated. Moreover, they are themselves not criminals so they will not be allowed to join him behind bars to provide for his protection, even if they wanted to.
As mentioned elsewhere, at most he'll get house arrest, which Trump could totally ignore if he wanted.
Hopefully, Juan won’t put the former U.S. President in a Messican jail down in Juarez.
Easy answer, Biden removes SS protection from DJT, that way he can be put into the general population.

Joe Biden will issue an executive order telling the Secret Service to stand down. They want Trump DEAD!
