If RFK were not a Kennedy would he be given Secret Service protection? What is the threshold to be considered a serious candidate in need of protection? He was unable to make the June debate and is there any indication he'll make the one in September? Are people sending him death threats like Trump/Biden get on a regular basis? I'm guessing Stein, Oliver, and West aren't being given Secret Service protection.
I think the polarization in politics has become so bad...the government had no choice but to protect RFK Jr. too especially after the assassination attempt on Trump.
Yet, Stein, Oliver, and West may not be getting death threats. If they are, one of them will need to get shot for the others to get Secret Service protection until the November elections.
