  1. Evidentially, he was protected twice. The contrary would be the failure.

  2. If Trump wins, the IQ of the US people should be questioned. 🙂

  3. Billionaire can afford limitless manpower..
    He should handle his own problems

  4. He is not the President!!!

  5. Having the media refrain from maliciously lying about him would certainly help

  6. The constitution could come in to play in this question also, for some possibly. Do you know who is the smartest man that could have had input in this election, but chose to remain silent? Do you want to know who “did the right thing“ this political season in the United States of America? I will tell you. Former President George W. Bush., and the former first lady, Laura Bush .

  7. You give Trump the same high quality protection that Obama is getting.

  8. They can't protect their citizens from getting shot in the grocery store. Everyone is at risk.

  9. Bwa ha ha how's comparing your journalism career to one in the secret service. Sad.

  10. We've been made into a third world country? What a meathead. I believe he's had too many dog burgers and cat shakes.

  11. The Clintons should not get ANY protection.

  12. The women wasn't even interviewing anybody in Springfield. Was she actually even there? There are now a lot of people coming forward about the stolen pets. Haïti isa country with woodoo worshipping people. They offer the pets and eat them afterwards because they believe that the spirits they call upon are manifested in the offered pet.
    Bad jounalism it is.
    The guest you've had on was more interested in his own stories from the past than on the item they were talking about.
    Im disappointed in this BBC episode.

  13. Trump should drop out for his own safety and America.
    Two Republicans tried to kill him.

  14. … trump said, "Not once but twice"…. Third time is a charm! 😅

  15. As the title of this video suggests…. Tell trump to shut his & *#@ MOUTH!

  16. Easy. Stop sending the CIA to try to unalive them.

  17. Trump IS NOT THE PRESIDENT…

  18. How? Don't be a tyrant who wants a dictatorship that weaponizes your followers. Do not sow the seeds of hate for fellow citizens, and uses social media to spread debunked lies. OH, btw, both assailants were at one time registered Republicans.

  19. Who actually cares? How many Ex-Presidents have had an assassination attempt on their life after leaving office? 1,Theodore Roosevelt (1912). The dude, another Republican voter, was hiding on the grounds from the day before.,how did he know know the orange turd was going to be there when according to Secret Service, he did not decide to go golfing untill that day? Point being, when there a coordinayed plan by the it is hard to stop anyone from commiting any crime and both of the "attempts" were coordinated for marketing plans for sympathy votes. The BBC might want actually invest in research and proper critical diagnosis of events/news or just focus on entertaintment programming as you seem to lost the plot on what consitutes news and hyping up/promoting Nazis, Misogynists and Racists. Considering your recent history tof promoting the Faaaaaar Right, it going to be tough.

  20. Нові дворяни фсб Трамп в співпраці з владою США , збагачуються 💰 на крові людей, обманюють народ і перетворюють Америку в росію

  21. But why should that woman say its not true the Haitians are eating the cats in Springfield? is she basing her comments because she dislikes Trump or what exactly when there are videos and people in Springfield are saying their cats are getting missing and they see people killing their cats and eating them?

  22. The irony is how the US was a UK colony, but now it is the other way around. Regret that tea tax yet?

  23. Were they 'assassination' attempts or just another MAGA Trumpty Dumbty audience⁉️ 🤔🙄🤷😂🤣

  24. He's not the President ffs BBC, stop calling him President Trump, you may callhim Mr President to his face. ONLY.

  25. Mainstream media and Democrats could stop trying to weaponize people against him by not calling him a threat to democracy or even comparing him to Hitler. Ya gas light people as if we didn't already have 4 years of him being president and he did none of the things ya try to say he would do. 🧐 You are part of the problem and people should take ya to court for using incendiary language.

  26. The far left media should be ashamed of their biased reporting.

  27. First, Trump is THE promotor of violence in this campaign. First , during the first election, then while president, again now against everyone he wants to exploit. Dont put false flags out of the picture , this is all Russian made division tactics

  28. Trump divided the people, undermined US democracy to the point it was downgraded to only 'partial democracy ' by human rights watchdogs during his reign, and lies constantly. It's only surprising that there haven't been more attempts on his life. He's an enemy of the American people, and they created the 2nd ammendment exactly so that they would have a way of dealing with tyrants like him.

  29. Google Elon Musk on Haitian Cannibals in Feb

  30. Inside job by someone who wants him gone. My 3 suspects are secret service, Trumps wife and number one suspect is his daughter Ivanka. Trump rapped her as a teenager and she’s now trying to get her revenge.

  31. Maybe have the MSM stop telling everyone that the guy is hITLEr and the world will end if he is elected.
