Donald Trump appeared to be the target of an assassination attempt as he spoke during a rally in Pennsylvania on Saturday, law enforcement officials said. The former president, his ear covered in blood from what he said was a gunshot, was quickly pulled away by Secret Service agents and his campaign said he was “fine.”

    Secret service secretly failed . "One inch" of difference could have changed this news completely
  • @gernblanston4956
    Dan Bongino just demanded the Secret Service Director step down on live TV, suggesting she's not only utterly unqualified but has made inappropriate political statements.
  • @shawntacollins4527

    I swear I just want to cry for what happened today. This is just insane at what has happened.
  • @LisaRyanHealthyFit
    All these comments should be for an innocent man who lost his life . period . So sorry for the family.
  • @EmunahFL
    I feel so bad for the decedent's family and for those who witnessed his death. I feel bad for those injured (including Trump). I'm not a Trump or Biden fan but I've also never been a fan of wishing death on anyone. I'm glad he'll be okay.

    Why did I first heard this story from the Australian news and not the American news?
  • @larryt4884
    NBC staff look really sad that Trump survived.
  • @mimiwilson3810
