The U.S. Secret Service on Sunday refuted claims that former President Donald Trump’s security team requested additional security and was denied during a campaign rally in Pennsylvania where a shooter opened fire at the former president on Saturday evening.
A statement from U.S. Secret Service spokesman Anthony Guglielmi said that such claims are “absolutely false” for a multitude of reasons, responding to assertions made on social media about the incident. He did not go into specifics about the claims or who made them.
