"Twenty-one years later, there was a plot against President Trump’s life in Manila—a shocking fact revealed in United States Secret Service: On the Front Line, a two-hour special airing on the National Geographic Channel Sunday night that—for the first time—provides viewers with a behind-the-scenes glimpse of the workings of the Secret Service, and the complex measures they take to protect the president of the United States.
President Trump (codename: "Mogul") was due to arrive in the bustling city to meet with Philippine President Rodrigo Duterte and other South Asian leaders at the ASEAN 50 summit in November 2017. Chad Ragan, a special agent in the Presidential Protective Division, was the Secret Service agent in charge for the trip; Audrey Gibson, a special agent in the Protective Intelligence & Assessment Division (aka “The Bubble”), served as his eyes and ears.
The Secret Service comprises four main teams: Protective Intelligence; Uniformed Division; Protective Operations; and Investigations. The Protective Operations team includes those in the "inner circle," standing steps from POTUS, and special ops, such as countersnipers and the K-9 explosive detection unit. Protective Intelligence analyzes threats against the president, both on and offline. The Uniformed Division guards the White House or anywhere POTUS goes. And Investigations monitors the motives of people who make threats against the presidenT

"There is credible information that an incident could occur during ASEAN," says Special Agent Gibson, leading the Secret Service's personnel brief in Manila. Pointing to a map of ISIS and ISIS-affiliated threat actors, she adds, "As of this week, the Philippines has escalated to a critical threat level." (Days before the president's visit, ISIS issued a series of threats—via video—that featured a picture of the president filled with bullets, and a message urging jihadists to "lie in wait" and "ambush" POTUS in the Philippines.)
Prior to President Trump's arrival on Air Force One, a PID agent informs Special Agent Gibson that he's come across a credible threat against POTUS—in the form of a tweet reading, "Gonna be in Manila the same time as Trump… I'll take one for the team lads," accompanied by a mugshot of Lee Harvey Oswald. And on his Instagram, they find a photo of the male suspect wielding a copy of the book How to Kill: The Definitive History of the Assassin. The PID agents then track his IP address and discover that the man is indeed located in downtown Manila, kilometers away from the president's hotel, and his social media posts reveal that he is traveling in the direction of the president’s hotel. They continue to monitor him.

How many more attempts have there been? We don't know. But one thing is certain, the more attempts the greater the odds that someone pierces the president's protective veil. Only when God allows it in His time.
When God is protecting you, you are invincible until He decides your time is up.
We need to keep Trump and other political leaders who are doing right in our prayers.

The MSM is largely responsible for fomenting the Leftwing hate against conservatives and Trump.
Comcast is responsible for no less than the depraved vitriol spewed daily from NBC and MSNBC.
You Comcast subscribers should really put your wallet with your mouth is.

So he was watching the news?

Dunno if we should demand that the world know that any particular plot has been foiled, or how many plots have been foiled. Remember that lots of crazies started making claims of being raped by Judge K after that was the 24/7 news.

I think our Democratic political leaders very much want Trump assassinated. If it happened they would be hard pressed to keep the glee out of their voices. However a comprehensive study I read on assassinations concluded that in no case did the assassin achieve the political goal he expected. In most cases the opposite happened.

MSM Ignores The News I don't think you want the news reporting on attempts on the President's life. Publicity might just spur others to try. Better that the Secret Service continue to do their job effectively and in the shadows.

These are not low level fringe politicians. This is who and what the Democratic Party has become. They are high level fringe politicians. That is what is being revealed to the American Public.

And therein lies the greatest danger of all. The fact that we never learn how many lunatics are being triggered by the increasingly radicalized Democrat leaders approving of and calling for civil unrest over their failure to win elections.
Actually publicizing this news would likely just inspire more nutballs and increase the problem further.
