Trump's use of a private security force is something to watch closely-especially if it continues after inauguration.http://www.politico.com/story/2016/12/donald-trump-security-force-232797 …
If it continues, Trump may use the force to create distance between his activities & government security services accountable to Congress.

Also, private security-intelligence force has a name, too. Called the gestapo in Germany 1930s, or NKVD in Stalin's Russia.
