Washington hotel shooting raises questions about Trump security

“I can’t imagine that there’s any profession that is more dangerous,” President Donald Trump told reporters, just hours after he was at the centre of yet another major security incident.

While a small army of Secret Service agents make the president arguably the world’s most protected person, keeping him safe is proving to be no easy task.
