Trump requests military aircraft and vehicles amid Iran threat
SUMMARY
Donald Trump’s campaign has requested strengthened security measures, including military aircraft, expanded flight restrictions, and ballistic glass in battleground states, amid ongoing threats from Iran. The requests come after briefings indicating that Iran is actively plotting against Trump, although no evidence directly ties Iran to recent assassination attempts. Campaign manager Susie Wiles slammed the Secret Service for insufficient support, leading to event cancellations. Trump's team has grown frustrated with the Secret Service's response to security needs, despite assurances. The Secret Service stated that Trump is receiving the highest level of security, including temporary flight restrictions and advanced surveillance technology. Recent incidents, including an assassination attempt in Butler, Pennsylvania, where Trump was wounded, have intensified these concerns. Additionally, Iranian hackers have targeted the campaign, attempting to steal sensitive documents.
