Trump reveals what he REALLY thinks of the Secret Service whose botched security plan nearly saw him assassinated – as he discloses ANOTHER glaring oversight and weighs in on FBI probe into the agency
Donald Trump admitted in an interview what he really thinks of the Secret Service after they put his life in danger and revealed another glaring omission.
The Republican presidential candidate admitted that he was not warned by the Secret Service about his attacker, despite agents receiving disturbing messages from rally attendees before Trump even appeared on stage.
In a interview with Fox News host Jesse Watters, the former president discussed his fateful meeting in Butler, Pennsylvania.
Trump told the interviewer that “no one mentioned Thomas Matthew Crooks,” the 20-year-old gunman, despite the fact that he was being monitored “an hour” before the shooting.
“There were mistakes made,” Watters told Trump. “They had this guy under surveillance for an hour beforehand. Nobody told you you couldn’t go on stage?”

“Nobody mentioned it,” the former president responded. “Nobody said it was a problem.”
‘[They] could have said, ‘Let’s wait 15, 20 minutes, 5 minutes.’ Nobody said… I think that was a mistake,” he added.
Trump, and the rest of the United States, later wondered how Crooks had gotten onto the roof in the first place.
“How did somebody get on that roof?” Trump asked. “And why wasn’t he turned in, because people saw him on that roof.”
Trump revealed that security guards were alerted to someone with a gun on the roof before he even walked onstage. They didn’t stop him.
“When you hear Trumpers screaming, the woman in the red shirt, ‘There’s a man on the roof,’ and other people, ‘There’s a man on the roof and he’s got a gun,’ … that was quite a thing before I got on stage. And I thought someone would do something about it,” Trump said.
Trump suffered a minor injury, but the outcome could have been much worse if he hadn’t turned his head slightly at the last moment.

The Republican presidential candidate has revealed that he was not warned by the Secret Service about his attacker, despite agents receiving concerned messages from protesters.
The former president attended every day of the Republican Party convention with a large white bandage over his injured ear.
His former doctor and now congressman, Ronny Jackson, released a detailed report on Trump’s health on Saturday.
“He will undergo further evaluations, including a comprehensive hearing test, if necessary. He will follow up with his primary care physician as directed by the physicians who initially evaluated him,” Jackson said.
“In short, former President Trump is doing well and is recovering as expected from the gunshot wound he sustained last Saturday afternoon.”
