Trump Campaign Wants Military Planes For Protection. WAHHH!

He probably ran out of money and wants the U.S. of A. to pay for his campaign travel.

Oh dear. All of a sudden, the incredibly brave Orange Man, in the wake of his ENORMOUS ear scratch, wants to be protected as if he were the commander-in-chief. HE ISN'T. Via the Daily Beast:

Donald Trump’s campaign reportedly wants the GOP candidate to travel in military aircraft and vehicles during the final weeks leading up to the election.

He also wants expanded flight restrictions over his residences and rallies, as well as bulletproof glass to be installed ahead of campaign events in battleground states, according to The Washington Post.

The requests for such extraordinary and unprecedented measures, first reported by The New York Times, come after the campaign was briefed on Iranian plots to kill the former president. His advisers are concerned about drones and missiles, not just lone gunmen, who targeted him twice already over the summer.

The Cheeto frequently targets anyone he doesn't like, doing everything but coming out and giving their home addresses to his followers, but all of a sudden, he is VERY VERY CONCERNED about personal security. Just for himself, of course.

Susie Wiles, his campaign manager, whined to the Secret Service that the Great Pumpkin's campaign event planning has been hampered because he does not have adequate protections!

Secret Service spokesperson Anthony Guglielmi suggested the former president is already getting the extra security he wants, saying in a statement to the Post: “Assistance from the Department of Defense is regularly provided for the former president’s protection, to include explosive ordinance disposal, canine units, and airlift transportation.”

He added that the Secret Service is arranging for the sort of flight restrictions Trump’s team requested. “Additionally, the former president is receiving the highest level of technical-security assets which include unmanned aerial vehicles, counter unmanned aerial surveillance systems, ballistics, and other advanced technology systems,” he told the Post.
