Trump safe after 'gunshots in his vicinity,' campaign says

Let’s not jump to conclusions. Just because the last assassin was republican doesn’t mean that this one was.
Trollin^

So Adam Kinzinger and Liz Cheney like Trump?

Not surprised you’re the same guy that doesn’t care about the working-class struggling in today’s America.

Put country first.
 

FBI investigating attempted assassination of Trump in Florida​

(Reuters) -Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump was safe after what the FBI said appeared to be an attempted assassination attempt on Sunday outside Trump's golf course in Palm Beach, Florida.

There were shots fired outside the course, law enforcement sources said. Trump's campaign had earlier said he was safe following gunshots in his vicinity but gave no details.


The Associated Press reported that U.S. Secret Service agents opened fire after seeing a person with a firearm near Trump’s golf club, citing two unnamed law enforcement sources, adding that no injuries were reported. Reuters was not immediately able to verify the report, which said that the suspect fled in an SUV and was apprehended in another county. CNN quoted Martin County Sheriff William Snyder as saying his agency apprehended the suspect sought by Palm Beach County.

The Secret Service said it was investigating the incident, which occurred shortly before 2 p.m. (1800 GMT).

Trump sent an email to his fundraising list saying there were "gunshots in my vicinity, but before rumors start spiraling out of control, I wanted you to hear this first: I AM SAFE AND WELL!" according to an email seen by Reuters.

Trump was injured in an assassination attempt in Pennsylvania on July 13, raising questions about protection for candidates just months ahead of what looks likely to be highly contested Nov. 5 election in which he will face off against Democratic Vice President Kamala Harris.

The White House said in a statement that President Joe Biden and Vice President Kamala Harris had been briefed about the incident and were relieved to know that he is safe. "Violence has no place in America," Harris said in an X social media post.

Reuters was not immediately able to confirm his account.

The Washington Post said Trump had been golfing at the course when the incident occurred. Secret Service agents took him to a holding room at the club, it said, citing two people briefed on what had happened.

Trump campaign spokesperson Steven Cheung did not immediately respond to requests for comment.

The first shooting of a U.S. president or major party presidential candidate in more than four decades was a glaring security lapse that forced Kimberly Cheatle to resign as Secret Service director under bipartisan congressional pressure.

Trump was grazed in the right ear and one rallygoer was killed in the gunfire. The gunman, identified as a 20-year-old Thomas Crooks, was shot and killed by a Secret Service sniper.

The U.S. Secret Service's new acting director said in August that he was "ashamed" of a security lapse that led to the assassination attempt.

Yes, yes. We all know. 50 threads aren't necessary. Shooter didn't get within sight of him.
Breathe.
 
I Am a traditional Democrat, and I recognize that the post World War II economic boom was due to tremendous Democrat leadership and also teamwork by Republicans under people like FDR, Harry Truman, and Dwight Eisenhower. What is wrong with left wingers today that they cannot accept the fact that our economy was better and the country was safer under Trump, the world was safer under Trump compared to today.

As usual, very little to no substance from Democrats on these topics. it’s nonstop trolling, personal attacks and looking for gotcha moments.
 
one more dupe thread.

go here:

 
I like the Sheriff. That dude is like : don’t ask dumb questions.

you wish

He's a very hated man.

you dopes said this last time Trump was scared shit over something
 
Maybe the moderators should have just discussed the first assassination attempt at the debate, and we would not be discussing now.
 
Honest to Christ, did you really ******* think there wasn't already a thread on this? Did you honestly think there weren't at least half a dozen other members foaming out the mouth to post this story? The first thread was posted at around 11:58am in whatever time zone the board's servers reside.
 
Somebody apparently wants Mr. Trump dead. Now gee, I can't imagine which political party might benefit from that happening. Any guesses?

Trump's round of golf today was not public information. How did the shooter know he was going to be there?


Republicans would benefit immeasurably from his removal. He is a liability to his own movement at this point.
 
15th post
Just being clear as to what the FBI is investigating.

They are not investigating two men shooting at each other as someone lied and said. Two men shooting at each other is local police territory.
 
Democrats will try to assassinate him over and over. Then move on to the ones they really want to kill -- Republicans.
Due to a toxic political environment he helped create and foster..and continues to do so. He just doesn't get it.
Shakespeare said it well.
