<p>President Donald Trump reflected on the failed assassination attempt — which took place one year ago during a campaign rally in Butler, Pennsylvania — and said that while he trusted and respected the Secret Service agents charged with protecting him, they’d clearly “had a bad day.”</p>
<p>Trump addressed the issue during an interview with his daughter-in-law for her Fox News show “My View” with Lara Trump — which aired on the eve of the anniversary — and he made it clear that he still had “confidence” in the Secret Service despite the fact that “mistakes were made” leading up to that fateful event.</p>

<p>“They briefed me and I’m satisfied with it, I’m satisfied with it,” he said of the after-action reports and reviews from the Secret Service regarding what happened that day.</p>
<p>“They should have had somebody in the building. That was a mistake,” he continued. “They should have had communications with the local police, they weren’t tied in, and they should have been tied in — so there were mistakes made, and that, you know, shouldn’t have happened. And that building was a prime building in terms of what they were trying to do.”</p>
<p>“So, but I was satisfied in terms of the bigger plot, the larger plot,” Trump continued. “I have great confidence in these people, I know the people and they’re very talented, very capable. They had a bad day, and I think they’ll admit that, kind of a rough day.”</p>
<p>“This is a very dangerous job, being President. You know, I say a race car driver — one percent of one percent, think of that, die. That’s not a lot. A bull rider, I think that’s pretty dangerous, it’s like one tenth of one percent die. And with a president, it’s like five precent. Why didn’t you tell me this?” he asked with a smile. “I could have maybe made a different decision. But I wouldn’t have made a different decision, because we’re doing so well. The country is back.</p>
