CNN: It's ‘Wildly Irresponsible' For Trump ‐ Who Was Shot In The Head ‐ To Say Secret Service Didn't Protect Him
[Federalist] CNN’s Jim Acosta claimed during his afternoon segment on Tuesday that it was "wildly irresponsible" for former President Donald Trump to accurately note that the U.S. Secret Service failed to protect him from an attempted assassination that left him with a wounded ear.

"The Biden/Harris Administration did not properly protect me, and I was forced to take a bullet for Democracy. IT WAS MY GREAT HONOR TO DO SO!" former President Donald Trump wrote Tuesday on Truth Social.

The 2024 Republican presidential nominee also pointed out shortly after U.S. Secret Service Director Kimberly Cheatle resigned in disgrace that she "never gave me proper protection, so I ended up having to take a bullet for democracy."

"When you hear the former president saying something like that, what’s your reaction?" Acosta asked his guest. "I mean, obviously, the Secret Service is a professional operation. To say something like ’they did not protect me,’ it just sounds just wildly irresponsible."
