Security Expert Speaks Out on ‘Poison’ Rumors After Trump Incident
A security expert recently addressed disturbing ‘poison’ claims following an incident where Donald Trump was struck by a microphone. The event occurred on March 14, just hours after Trump delivered a speech at the Department of Justice, drawing attention on social media.
Is This a Rare Incident?
The security expert remarked that such an occurrence is unusual, especially for a sitting president. “It’s not something you would expect with a president,” he stated.
Comparing Trump’s Press Engagements
The expert also compared Trump’s media interactions with those of former President Joe Biden. He noted that Biden held fewer press conferences, and the ones he did were often at a distance. “President Trump is trying to be a man of the people,” the expert explained. “He’s having probably seven or eight press conferences daily. He’s incredibly busy.”
Why the Outrage?
Some are outraged by the incident, considering it a clumsy mistake. “It’s clumsy, fundamentally, for whoever was holding the mic to shove it so close into his face,” the expert said. He added that the press meeting, held at an airstrip, had a lot of background noise, yet the microphone should have picked up sound clearly.
Trump’s Reaction to the Incident
Despite being struck by the mic, Trump remained calm. “He was obviously not best pleased, but he was very cool about it,” the expert noted. “Given the circumstances, his reaction was impressive.”
Consequences of the Security Blunder
The security expert suggested that the Secret Service would likely ensure more distance between Trump and the press in future events. “It’s unlikely anyone will get that close again,” he said, noting that all equipment would be thoroughly checked before being allowed near the president.
