In light of at least two assassination attempts against him, President Donald Trump is re-entering the White House acutely aware of how important his Secret Service security detail will be.
As such, he recently announced that someone who has been providing him with security for some time will be taking the helm of the agency during his second term.
According to Fox News, Donald Trump Jr. was enthusiastic about his father’s decision to appoint Sean Curran to the role:
“President Trump will be naming Sean Curran, who heads his personal detail, to be Secret Service Director,” the president-elect’s son, Donald Trump Jr., announced on X Friday.
“Sean is a great patriot and will stop all the insanity once and for all. There’s not a better person to be in this position!”
Curran was among the group of heroic agents who rushed on stage to shield Trump with their bodies during a failed assassination attempt in Butler, Pennsylvania, that left two dead and the candidate with an injury to his ear.
