If a President groped someone, and she fought back (e.g. by kicking him hard), how would the Secret Service react?
For that matter, what if she didn't fight back but clearly felt assaulted? These are intended as serious questions, not a partisan rant. Would the agents subdue/separate them, or just watch it happen? Would the Service press charges against either?

SS, both agents and uniformed, protect the president, no matter what. Other agencies would take action. If there was a kick the president would be stopped because he would b e swarmed by agents for protection. The kicker would also be stopped and detained. Like real police the SS does not charge, that would be up to the US Attorney's Office when it came to the person kicking. As to the president being charged that is up to congress with the investigation into the president's actions by whoever teh US Attorney's Office and the Congress assigns to the investigation. The president can also be sued for non presidential actions
