TYLER \u00e2\u20ac\u201c This weekend, another attempt to assassinate former president Donald Trump took place at his golf club in West Palm Beach, Florida. East Texas congressman Nathaniel Moran (R-Texas) is now looking for answers. \u00e2\u20ac\u0153I was devastated to hear about the second assassination attempt on president Trumps life,\u00e2\u20ac\u009d said Moran. \u00e2\u20ac\u0153This is totally unacceptable.\u00e2\u20ac\u009d <\/p>\n
According to our news partner KETK, Moran is demanding answers from those charged with protecting the former president. \u00e2\u20ac\u0153What we\u00e2\u20ac\u2122ve seen this summer is not in my opinion a lack of resources, it\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s a lack of responsiveness and planning and logistical operations that should be in place for any protection of a person at this level,\u00e2\u20ac\u009d Moran said. <\/p>\n
The congressman acknowledged the secret service did their job in the moment but believes the safety of all political candidates must be ensured, no matter the party or platform. <\/p>\n
\u00e2\u20ac\u0153It looks like the security at least was able to engage the shooter before he began shooting, still not good enough for me. There needs to be better security and we are still going to need to have answers on why a shooter was this close,\u00e2\u20ac\u009d Moran said. \u00e2\u20ac\u0153The democratic process of our republic is too important to see it go down the drain because of a lack of safety and security for our candidates\u00e2\u20ac\u009d <\/p>\n
It\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s something he and other members of congress want to address as election day is almost two months away. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
