Ominous answer to why The Donald never buttons up his jacket According to his former senior advisor and close confidante Roger Stone, Donald Trump doesn’t button up his jacket during public appearances because he is always wearing a bullet proof vest.
Conservative talk show host Larry Elder asked why Trump didn’t button his jacket, saying he’d never seen that with a politician before.
Stone’s response was ominous – apparently Trump doesn’t button up his jacket because he is always wearing a bullet proof vest.
It’s no surprise that Trump is cautious about his personal security given the deluge of death threats he has received since becoming the Republican frontrunner.
Following his controversial comments on Muslim immigration, there was an explosion of “kill Trump” threats made by leftists on Twitter.
Trump first began wearing a bullet proof vest for certain sorties back in October after reports that the world’s most wanted drug lord El Chapo had put a $100 million bounty on his head, but now it appears as though he has donned the item for every public appearance.
It was around this time that it was also revealed Trump would receive agent protection from the Secret Service after a sudden increase in death threats. Trump’s vow to build a wall to stem the flow of illegal immigrants from Mexico has also stoked resentment, with the Pope slamming Trump for his border policy despite the fact that Vatican City is surrounded by a wall and allows almost no immigration.
