Yes, I think he may have been referring to what I described. Pay attention to the words I used. "May have". That is not an absolute statement.
Apparently, the SS may have agreed with my sentiment and had a good talk with his campaign.
What we can say for certain, is that he was not clear in his statement.
Trump's problem is he can't figure out how to word things to keep his foot out of his mouth.
A federal official on Wednesday denied a news report that the U.S. Secret Service had formally spoken with Republican Donald Trump's presidential campaign regarding his suggestion a day earlier that gun rights activists could stop Democratic rival Hillary Clinton from curtailing their access to firearms.
Pushing back against a CNN report that the law enforcement agency had had "more than one" exchange with the Trump camp about the remark, an official familiar with the matter told Reuters there had been no formal conversations with the campaign regarding the comment made to supporters the day before.

It's only "obvious" to the leftist shills and those on government assistance who want to keep getting their checks.
To everyone else, they see the ridiculousness in all this language policing.

Lol. Look who's so easily triggered.
Also the one who said Trump "needs to control his damn mouth". No he doesn't. You don't even know what "needs" means. He doesn't need to appease you and your leftist ilk.

It will be interesting to see if that claim by CNN is debunked.
All these unnamed "officials" makes it difficult to tell either way.

Or they say he was joking and we need to get a sense of humor.
No matter what he meant or what comes out of this, it is obvious that Trump needs to learn to control his damn mouth.

Here's an update:

Reuters
The keyword here is "formal". They had not "formally" spoken... Does not mean words were not exchanged. In fact, why include the word "formal" if no words at all were exchanged? CNN stands by the story... Looks pretty clear. A warning without a write up.
Not true. The denials are specific to say "formal". You can have conversations with anyone in a non-formal setting.
