This was a surreal and amazing incident that unfolded tonight at the Republican National Convention.
Kimberly Cheatle, the director of the Secret Service, was confronted by Republican senators John Barrasso of Wyoming and Marsha Blackburn of Tennessee, who were demanding answers about the failure of the Secret Service to protect Donald Trump.
Kim Cheatle tried to run away but the senators chased after her, demanding answers.
This is just stunning. Watch below:

These Republican senators deserve credit for showing such backbone.
Cheatle needs to resign or be fired, now.
