Donald Trump, the ex-President, made an appearance at the RNC convention in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, on Monday. He was accompanied by an all-male Secret Service team and had a bandaged ear, a result of the attempted assassination on Saturday in Pennsylvania:

The ex-president exited the premises flanked by the elite male members of the secret service, likely in response to the recent focus on their female counterparts, as highlighted in a tweet from the DC Draino account.
Female agents faced challenges on Saturday and expressed their worries on various social media platforms. One female agent faced criticism on X for struggling to holster her gun after the team had safely escorted Trump into a vehicle.
