Blanche on Trump Assassination Attempt: "No Better Example of Why This Ballroom Is Necessary”

Acting Attorney General Todd Blanche is making a strong case for building a ballroom at the White House, saying it is a matter of safety. Blanche points out that the White House does not have enough space to host large events, which forces the administration to use outside hotels and venues. Those locations are much harder to secure, as shown by the shooting at the White House Correspondents' Dinner at the Washington Hilton, where a gunman got past security, shot a Secret Service agent, and forced the evacuation of the President, Vice President, and top officials. Blanche argues that this incident is the clearest proof yet of the dangers that come with holding presidential events outside the White House. #ToddBlanche #WhiteHouseBallroom #NationalSecurity #PresidentialSecurity #WHCDShooting #AssassinationAttempt #SecretService #WhiteHouse #EastWingRenovation #DOJ #PresidentTrump
