REPUBLICAN presidential contender Donald Trump is lucky to be alive after yet another shocking display of ineptitude by the Secret Service — and security experts warn the agency’s unfathomable failures are making the former commander-in-chief and other candidates sitting ducks for deranged wouldbe assassins!
Just 67 days after epic mistakes by the Secret Service allowed a gunman to shoot up a Trump rally in Pennsylvania, coming within inches of killing the 78-year-old former president, another rifle-toting nutcase managed to get within a few hundred yards of him on his Florida golf course.
This time, the feds say a 58-year-old North Carolina man, Ryan Wesley Routh, was apparently lying in wait for about 12 hours to get a clear shot at the blustery billionaire. Routh was said to be hiding in a thicket of shrubs on the public side of a fence protecting the sixth hole of the Trump International Golf Club in tony West Palm Beach.
Security experts say Routh might have succeeded — and changed the course of American history — had an eagleeyed Secret Service agent stationed one hole ahead of Trump’s party not spotted the muzzle of an AK-47-style rifle peeking through the leaves. The agent opened fire, driving Routh from his hiding place before he got a chance to take a shot at the golf-loving politician, who was teeing off about 400 yards away on the fifth hole.
