Trump private security force ‘playing with fire’
The president-elect continues to employ a battalion of retired cops and FBI agents to protect him and clamp down on protesters.

http://www.politico.com/story/2016/12/d ... rce-232797
GRAND RAPIDS, Michigan — President-elect Donald Trump has continued employing a private security and intelligence team at his victory rallies, and he is expected to keep at least some members of the team after he becomes president, according to people familiar with the plans.

The arrangement represents a major break from tradition. All modern presidents and presidents-elect have entrusted their personal security entirely to the Secret Service, and their event security mostly to local law enforcement, according to presidential security experts and Secret Service sources.

But Trump — who puts a premium on loyalty and has demonstrated great interest in having forceful security at his events — has opted to maintain an aggressive and unprecedented private security force, led by Keith Schiller, a retired New York City cop and Navy veteran who started working for Trump in 1999 as a part-time bodyguard, eventually rising to become his head of security.

I was thinking McCain but he gave us Palin so that's a demerit.

Buy tinned food and guns. Lots of both. The Russian ambassador to turkey was shot and killed earlier by a Turkish guy. Trump will inevitably tweet about this. And then it's game over.

I don't hate either of those ideas, friends. Though, with what happened in Mass last year (the year before?) with snow and such, I'm much more inclined to head to MT.

I love you with all my heart, Pete. But if I'm gonna leave this dumb city, I'm going somewhere without 45 feet of snow all the time. I guess though... we could act out Baby It's Cold Outside all winter long. And that wouldn't be so bad...

Fuck it, I change my mind. I'm coming to Massachusetts!
