Thank goodness everyone is safe.
Former President Donald Trump is safe following an apparent assassination attempt at his Florida golf course, and a “potential suspect” is in custody, US authorities have confirmed.
Secret Service agents spotted the barrel of a rifle poking through some bushes and opened fire at him, officials said. The FBI said Trump was 300-500 yards away at the time.
An AK47-style firearm and scope, along with two backpacks and a GoPro camera, were later found at the scene.
A witness reported seeing the suspect running from some bushes and jumping into a black Nissan car after the agents had fired at him multiple times.
We should know more in the next few days. It does seem clear, however, that after years of the Left telling people that Trump is evil and a “threat to democracy,” that there are plenty of unhinged Leftists who believe it to be their duty to prevent Trump from returning to the White House by any means necessary. Political violence in our nation is heavily weighted to one side.
Unhinged lefty, indeed. Why do they always look like this?
…this
One more time.
Ah, hell…. https://d.newsweek.com/en/full/2471852/ryan-wesley-routh.webp?w=790&f=3023e3cbd9e79a05fc85109e04e9cdae
Appreciate the effort lol
I am trying to start the conspiracy theory that this dude was a HUGE Swifty. Trump pissed off the wrong group on Sunday, what next… going after Beyonce?
Oh, they caught a live one! This one cut and ran, so maybe his lack of dedication to martyrdom will prove useful to law enforcement. Let’s hope Florida can retain custody of the suspect and keep him alive. Federal custody would not be good for his health.
