Former US President, Donald Trump was rushed off the stage just minutes into his rally in Pennsylvania on Saturday, July 13, after gunshots were fired towards him.
Secret service officials say Trump is currently safe and is expected to survive. He had blood on the side of his head and his ear.
In the rally, as Trump was speaking, gunshots were heard. Then Trump reached for the side of his face as popping sounds rang out over the rally.
Secret Service officials then shouted at Trump to get down as they rushed the stage and surrounded him. He was quickly escorted into a vehicle, walking off the stage with agents on all sides.
A Secret Service spokesperson said in a statement posted to X that “the former President is safe.”
Shots fired at Trump rally.
Character assassination, failed.
Attempt to deplete savings, failed.
Attempt to silence, failed.
Only option left, actual assassination attempt, FAILED.
I’ve been saying repeatedly, double down on private security!
