The Secret Service is urging Donald Trump’s campaign to avoid scheduling large outdoor rallies and other events with big crowds after the tragic event on July 13 in Butler, Pennsylvania. Sources say the Secret Service shared their concerns about large outdoor rallies with Trump’s campaign advisers. Now, Trump’s team is looking for indoor venues like basketball arenas that can hold thousands of people. According to someone close to Trump, the campaign isn’t planning any large outdoor events at the moment. A Trump campaign spokeswoman declined to comment, and a Secret Service spokesman said the agency does not discuss its protective methods.

I secretly seen this coming after the 1st hearings aftermath.
I will not say this was the plan all along, but... Remember friend these are dark times of doubt and conspirational lies.

He has had dozens and dozens of campaign events outdoors since 2015 and now they want him to stop because of thier failures in Butler Pa?
Laser sights for guns are not protected by the U.S. Constitution’s Second Amendment, a federal judge ruled on July 22, upholding the city of Chicago’s ban on the sights.

They don't want the people seeing huge crowds at Trump events when we all know Kamala won't be able to bring in 25% of the crowds that Trump will, it's as simple as that

Not sure what the best answer is?
How about, F*** OFF!
My apologies if this is against some rule. Maybe some mod will see fit to delete or penalize me for insinuating a dirty word. But, I can see no other adequate or proper answer. They don't like the optics of Trump drawing in crowds while their candidates can barely gather a small gaggle. They failed in trying to kill him, so this, I guess, is their plan B.
They screwed up; they need to own their failures.

From a security stand point I understand and agree with this to some degree. It’s pretty hard to guarantee safety at a outdoor event. There’s calibers that will reach out and touch you from 100’s of yards, hard to guard everything within that perimeter.
