Multiple Secret Service agents are criticizing President Trump's brief appearance in an SUV outside Walter Reed Medical Center Sunday evening, accusing the president of putting his protective detail in unnecessary danger.
"He's not even pretending to care now," an agent who requested anonymity told The Washington Post.
"That should never have happened," another unidentified agent, who works in both the presidential and first family detail, told CNN. "The frustration with how we're treated when it comes to decisions on this illness goes back before this though. We're not disposable."
Agents are authorized to decline requests that would place the president at risk, but not those that would put themselves at risk.

(6,672 posts)There's a difference between putting themselves at risk to protect the president, and putting themselves at risk because the president is a dumbshit who doesn't give a rat's ass about anyone else.
I so wish some of these guys would stage some kind of a walkout.
"We're not disposable." That says it all.
