Former Secret Service Agent Dan Bongino Shares Concerns About Donald Trump’s Safety

He identified four primary sources of risk currently facing Trump: hostile foreign actors with strategic motives, domestic extremists radicalized by rhetoric, institutional hostility within certain governmental agencies, and a security culture increasingly influenced by political optics.

Each factor individually could justify heightened vigilance. However, their simultaneous presence creates a security environment historically unprecedented for any former American president, demanding proactive and professional protective measures.

Foreign threats remain particularly pressing. Iran, deeply aggrieved by Trump’s 2020 drone strike that killed Qassem Soleimani, continues to monitor and target him using both direct intelligence operations and proxy networks.
