It's going to be fascinating to see how the Secret Service deals with competing loyalties if it comes to a firefight between the current President's forces and the President-elect's forces. I'm sure the Director has had talks with his entire management team about how to handle it. And it very well could be, "look, if you're protecting Trump, you do that to the end of your own life ... and if you're protecting Biden, you do the same. It's possible in an extreme situation that you may even face each other, but you don't owe each other your ultimate defense, you owe that to the asset you are assigned to. I pray to God that never happens."
