Trump may have been safer if they kept him down and piled on top of him?I was surprised by this too. After they got him stood up, the just stand there for quite a while. Trump being so tall, his head is exposed. I would have expected them to get him on his feet, have him crouch and then just hustle him right out of there. I haven't heard any former SS agents talk about this yet.
I assume we'll find out shortly now that it's been addressed in the media when other SS/security agents chime in on what the proper security protocol should have been.
IMO:
It appears that they didn't want to refuse Trump's shoe request which they let override their pledge to protect him.
A totally incompetent and extremely dangerous decision made by all the SS surrounding Trump which easily could have led to his death.
