After US officials said there was a second assassination attempt on the Republican candidate
Former US President Donald Trump said: “I’m fine.”
The FBI, which said it opened fire on the gunman at the former president’s golf resort in Florida, said on Sunday it was investigating what appeared to be an “attempted assassination” against Trump.
Don’t be afraid!
I am safe, and no one is hurt.
Thank God!” Trump announced in a statement on his fundraising website. “But there are people in this world who will do whatever it takes to stop us. But I will not stop fighting for you. I will never give up.”
In their message, “Together we will make America great again.”
They explained.
Trump was playing golf at West Palm Beach Meadows, not far from his Mar-a-Lago home, a day before the presidential campaign. At a joint news conference involving the FBI, the Secret Service and local officials, officials said a Secret Service agent spotted a gunman who was about to infiltrate Trump’s golf course.
They said that he saw it and took action.
It’s unclear whether the suspect fired back at the undercover agent, the officials added.
Palm Beach office chief Rick Bradshaw said the suspect was 365 to 457 meters away from Trump.
Following the attempted assassination of Donald Trump, Vice President Kamala Harris expressed her happiness that Trump is safe.
In a statement released by the White House, “I was deeply concerned about the assassination attempt on former President Trump,” her rival said.
