If he ever gets locked up, does he still get Secret Service protection in jail?

[Cyrano]

Every ex president gets Secret Service coverage for life. Exactly how is this going to work out if the Orange Beast ever ends up behind bars?

1. The Congress gave him the protection-- Congress can take it away.

2. He is an old white fat rich man who was President. He ain't going to jail.

He might die before these cases are all completed. He will moan and bitch about his suddenly failing health when sentencing comes around. A deal will be struck for home confinement at Mar a Quid Pro Quo if and when "imprisonment" is handed down.

3. wouldnt that make their job infinitely easier?

they just need one guy to kind of be there while he does his time. The prison takes care of the rest

10. From what I have read elsewhere, he would have TWO agents

stationed outside of his cell, if he were imprisoned....


That would actually save a lot of money from what he has now, LOL

4. Simple solution

One desk in the prison office for one secret service agent/ food taster.
One cell in solitary for Trump.
Putting Trump in general population would be cruel-punishment for all others.

5. I thought

SS protection was only 10 years from the time you leave office.

7. Here's the current law

On January 10, 2013, President Barack Obama signed the Former Presidents Protection Act of 2012, reinstating lifetime Secret Service protection for his predecessor George W. Bush, himself, and all subsequent presidents. Richard Nixon relinquished his Secret Service protection in 1985, the only president to do so.

Got this from Google.

6. He isn't ever going to be "behind bars".

Worst case for him will be more like house arrest. No golf, no rallies. But lots of hamberders and ketchup.

8. With a gag order going to jail

if he talks. That would get him to shut up.
