Secret Service has no plans to beef up security at RNC after Trump assassination attempt: ‘We are confident in plans we have’
SUMMARY
Despite an assassination attempt on former President Donald Trump, the Secret Service will not alter security plans for the Republican National Convention (RNC) in Milwaukee. Audrey Gibson-Cicchino, the Secret Service’s RNC convention coordinator, claims to be confident in existing plans, stating, "We are confident in the plans that we have and are moving forward with those plans." Trump, 78, is set to arrive on Sunday for the four-day event where he will be officially named the Republican presidential nominee. President Biden has instructed the Secret Service Director to review security measures. The assassination attempt at a rally left Trump injured, one rally-goer dead, and two others wounded, but the current security strategy will remain unchanged.
