Trump Refuses Bulletproof Vest Over Weight Appearance Concerns Despite Assassination Attempts

Donald Trump has declined to wear a bulletproof vest in public appearances, citing concerns that the protective gear would make him appear heavier. The president-elect expressed reluctance about the additional bulk, saying he is unsure whether he could tolerate looking tens of kilograms heavier while wearing the vest. Trump's refusal to use the protective equipment comes despite facing multiple assassination attempts during his recent presidential campaign, raising questions about his security protocols ahead of his return to office.
