Lame-duck President Joe Biden has claimed that he hasn’t been seen in front of large crowds because the “Secret Sevice doesn’t let” him.
Biden told reporters that the United States Secret Service (USSS) informed him that it is “too dangerous” for him to hold rallies with large crowds.
He added that he’d enjoyed a recent campaign stop with Democrat presidential nominee Kamala Harris.
However, Biden claimed that he isn’t allowed to go out as often as he’d like.
“I’m not able to go out in the crowds anymore,” he said.
“The Secret Service doesn’t let me.”
When a reporter asked him why, he added:
“Well, because they say it’s too dangerous.
“No one gets to go out.”

Biden did not clarify further as to why the Secret Service felt such outings were too dangerous.
However, President Donald Trump’s Secret Service protection failed to stop a shooter from opening fire on him during a July 13 rally in Butler, Pennsylvania.
The would-be assassin gained access to an elevated position less than 200 yards from Trump and took several shots.
He shot and wounded three people, including Trump, and killed hero firefighter Corey Comperatore, who died shielding his family from the bullets.
Over the weekend, Biden made a rare appearance on the campaign trail with Vice President Harris.
During a slurring speech, Biden told a crowd in Pittsburgh that his great grandfather, Edward Francis Blewitt — who won his election to the Pennsylvania legislature in 1907 — had been accused of being a Molly Maguire.

However, the story appeared to be another of Biden’s infamous fabrications.
The Molly Maguires were a group of Irish immigrant coal miners with a penchant for violence.
They were only really active in Pennsylvania from 1862-1868 and then again briefly in 1874 and 1875.
Biden’s great-grandfather was born in 1859 and would have been a teenager at the time of the group’s resurgence.
