Shadow at the Gate: What the Trump Golf Course Arrest Says About America's Unsettling New Normal The arrest of an armed man at the Trump National Golf Club in Southern California over the weekend has raised more questions than answers about security and civil liberties.
The incident occurred just days before President Donald Trump's visit to the club for a Republican National Committee fundraising event.
Details of the arrest are disturbing: the individual was found carrying ammunition on his person, possessing a loaded pistol in his car, and had been monitoring security preparations at the club, taking photos and video that raised suspicions among law enforcement officials.
