yeah. I’m not talking about anything political. Only the function of a body guard protecting an idiot. (I’m fully liscensed as a protective agent… aka body guard. edit: to clarify, I work as management now,) At that moment, their job was to remove the former president from the area… prefferably without him getting shot again.
So when he tries to stand up and make himself a target… their job is to push him down, and get him to the truck. To do that, I’d have socked him in the gut. In large part because I would be doing my job- and possibly taking a bullet from you. Every second he’s standing around being a dipshit is another potential opportunity.
His fist pump was a blatant disrespect to those agents. putting their lives in further danger. To my eyes, it makes him look like a weak, shitty leader who cares more about fucking appearances than the lives of the people sworn to protect him- to literally take a bullet for him. So yeah. if I were in their place, I’d punch him, and put him in a come along hold and drag his fat ass to the truck. a punch is far less dangerous than another bullet.
As for the oaths of office… yeah… that’s a giant fucking can of worms and you should probably be extremely careful how you phrase things. Besides which I am not, nor have ever been, employed by the government, or otherwise in a position to take such an oath. so there’s nothing there for me to “take seriously”.
