Shots apparently fired outside.

Sources will be confused early on.

Fortunately, there was no sign Trump was hit. Was it a CNN reporter? MSNow?

I'd go with a leftist with chronic TDS but I'd have to include 87% of those in attendance.

Always some crazy ruining a night of celebration or posing a threat.

It appears they ended the event before it began. Secret Service will not let him back in I am sure, but, it is Trump so you never know lol. Trump HATES to have someone ruin his event or moment, he is stubborn as hell.

I hope they catch the SOBs

Update from the NY Times.

The White House press pool, the group of reporters that travels with the president, is reporting that the president is still at the Washington hotel that serves as the setting for the correspondent’s dinner. “The pool is still at the Hilton as of 8:56, which means POTUS hadn’t departed yet,” according to the pool report.​

Also from the NY Times.

Wolf Blitzer, the CNN anchor, was near the men's room at the top of the stairs above the basement when the shooting took place, he told his network. Blitzer described being a few feet away from the shooter. "I did see the gunman on the ground after he started shooting," Wolf Blitzer says on CNN.​

Everyone is safe, except for maybe the perp. Trump wants to return to the dinner.

So the gunman wasn't outside the building, just outside the ballroom. I'm watching the coverage right now.

YOU ******* ASSHOLE.
**** YOU.

No, goddam it. I will NOT lighten up.
Blaming the Trump administration for yet another assassination attempt is absurd.
The Secret Service is top flight.
So screw him.
And screw you too, pal.
This shit has to end. Don't make light of it. Don't ignore it. Don't look the other way. This is the THIRD attempt on Trump's life.
That is completely inexcusable.

Watching it Live, there is a security situation going on. It was a bad idea to have the President and Vice President in the room at the same time.
No link yet. Any one else watching? Room is way to crowded for me. It can be a disaster if everyone rushes to leave in a violent situation or other emergency.

More left wing violence.

The left can never be allowed to run our gov't again.

I think I just heard on a radio one shot dead, one in custody.
