Trump rally in Butler Township on Saturday will have tight security, big crowds
SUMMARY
Preparations are underway for Donald Trump's rally in Butler, PA this Saturday, where he will return to the Butler Farm Show grounds—the site of an assassination attempt in July. The Secret Service estimates attendance could range from 15,000 to 60,000, with security personnel expected to be in the hundreds. The rally will see coordination between federal, state, and local authorities. Butler County Commissioner Leslie Osche, who is set to speak at the event, highlighted the community's strength and resilience. "Mr. Trump comes here because we represent the best of what is a strong middle-class community". Security measures will include a unified communications system bridging state and local police with the Secret Service. Snipers will be stationed on top of the AGR building, which was used in the July attack, while surveillance drones will monitor the crowd. Additional Secret Service agents will be embedded with local teams to prevent the communication delays seen last time.
