 Did we have enough people? Why didn't we have enough people? Over the last two years, the Trump team says it has been asking for more Secret Service protection. One day after the shooting, Secret Service spokesman Anthony Guglielmi tweeted, it was untrue that they had rebuffed the Trump team's requests for additional resources. Today, however, he acknowledged to NPR in an email that in some instances when Secret Service resources were not available, state or local partners were used for protection. Amy Held, NPR News.
