he U.S. Secret Service has become bureaucratic and complacent and is in need of reform, an independent review into the first assassination attempt on Donald Trump concluded on Thursday, saying without change such an incident will happen again.
On July 13, Trump, the Republican candidate in the Nov. 5 presidential election, narrowly escaped being shot in the head in Butler, Pennsylvania, by a bullet that grazed his ear.
The near-miss exposed serious security gaps and led to heightened protection measures for Trump's outdoor rallies.
