Former President Donald Trump, during a call with President Joe Biden, asked for a larger security detail due to the large crowds at his events, following the apparent assassination attempt on Sunday.
“We need more people on my detail because we have 50-60,000 people showing up to events,” Trump said in a livestreamed chat on X. He also praised Biden’s response, saying, “He couldn’t have been nicer,” and thanked him for his concern.
Earlier, Biden had commended the Secret Service for their vigilance and confirmed that the necessary resources would be provided to ensure Trump’s continued safety.
