EXCLUSIVE
Donald Trump‘s life was threatened earlier this month, and Secret Service agents paid a visit to the messenger … who says it was just a joke.
Law enforcement sources confirm to TMZ … Trump’s Secret Service team and Sheriff’s deputies in Greene County, Ohio checked in with a guy Monday who posted a message on Nov. 14 regarding the President-elect … “kill Trump.”
We’re told the meeting went like this. Agents asked the man — who ID’d himself as Micah — if he was serious about the threat. He responded, “Not unless he starts going door-to-door rounding up people like he says.”
Micah tells us the agents seemed satisfied he wasn’t serious and they left.
