How Did an Armed Individual Get Within 500 Yards of Former President Trump? Here's Why Trump's Golf Courses Pose Challenges to Secret Service

Golf courses have presented significant security challenges for the Secret Service, particularly those owned by Donald Trump. The vast, open spaces and proximity to public roads make securing the area difficult, especially given Trump's preference for socializing with club members. Despite increased security following a previous attempt on Trump’s life, another armed individual came within 500 yards of him during a recent round of golf. The attacker was stopped, but officials are considering additional security measures. Unlike military-based courses used by past presidents like Obama, Trump’s courses are more exposed, further complicating protection efforts.
