  Dude you're countering this guy's made up narrative. Quit being logical.
context: Honestly, after their performance under Trump and the recent "lost" texts from January 6th, I wouldn't feel all that comfortable trusting them myself.  Keep in mind that in 2019 Trump gutted the leadership of the Secret Service and installed his own people. >
  
  Why does the Secret Service need to exist? Why isn’t it the best and brightest military that are tasked with protecting the President? >
  
  Probably bc that would make a military coup a lot easier if they had military loyalists stationed with every member of government. >
  
  Wasn’t this exactly what Trump accomplished? Or very close to it? >
  
  Not really. If the SS had been in on the coup it would have succeeded. >
  
  Well, seeing as how numerous Secret Service agents deleted texts pertaining to January 6th well outside of record retention guidelines, hard to blame him. >
  
  I don’t blame him. >
  
  I don't blame Biden for a second.  These are the same secret service agents Pence refused to get in a car with on Jan 6 out of fear for his life. >
  
  My dad just finished reading Zero Fail about the secret service and I told him this post and he said "smart guy". >
  
  His distrust is justified. >
  
  The secret service was complicit in J6. They erased their communications in order to protect themselves. They tried to remove VP Pence to further Trump’s illegal agenda. I would be dubious as well. If the dogs didn’t like the Secret Service agents, there may well have been a reason. If the Secret Service agents wanted to get rid of the dog because they thought it was between them and Biden, they would lie. >
  
  It was shocking to me how adamant Pence was that day about not getting in that vehicle. The Jan 6th committee revealed the suspicious nature of it, and I will never forget how shaken the congress members were after resuming the floor later that evening. >
  
  Why isn’t he cleaning house?
  The SS should be 100% apolitical. If fucking POTUS can’t trust the agency assigned to protect his life, there’s a HUGE problem that would justify a purge. >
  
  
  Why isn’t he cleaning house?
  
  That'd be divisive. Giving Republicans every chance to stab him in the back is an old hobby of his. >
  
  So… nationally security should be put at risk instead?
  Playing pat-a-cake with the GOP over an issue as serious as this doesn’t make any sense. >
  
  You're right. But Biden is fine with putting national security at risk to give Republicans that chance. A violent attempt to overthrow the government wasn't enough for Biden to consider our Democracy in danger. He said as much on camera. I forget the exact wording of it but it was a hypothetical and he responded "then our Democracy really will be in danger". He's gullible and naive.
