Should Trump's children receive top security from the Secret Service, or is that just for the immediate family?

The children are going to be running Trump's businesses, not working for him. If they are, they can't be working at his businesses. They have to decide. So will policies have to be changed to fit their situation?

    I hate to sound deplorable and answer with a question but does Chelsea Clinton have Secret Service?

    Policies will not change. Nespotism rules prohibit them from holding official positions in many cases. He can seek their advise as he chooses.
    All the children of Presidents get SS protection. To prevent them from becoming harmed or used as leverage against the President.

    According to USA Today, neither Trump nor his children have asked for the security clearance for the 3 older children. This was started, apparently, by the Clinton Broadcasting Station (CBS), even though Trump stated in the 60 Minutes interview on Sunday that the children would not hold any formal role in his administration.  Of course, that doesn't stop the anti-Trumpers from going off the deep end over this fabrication!

    Don't you consider his children "immediate" family?

    Gerald Ford's daughter, Susan, was a real challenge for the Secret Service. She was always trying to ditch them so she could have a more normal life.

    They ARE his immediate family.
