The Trump campaign on Sunday said former President Donald Trump is “safe following gunshots in his vicinity.”

“President Trump is safe following gunshots in his vicinity. No further details at this time,” Trump campaign spokesman Steven Cheung said in a statement that did not provide additional details.

The former president was playing golf at Trump International Golf Club in West Palm Beach. The course was immediately locked down, according to a source familiar.

The Secret Service said on X that it is working with the Palm Beach County Sheriff’s Office to investigate a protective incident involving Trump. The Secret Service said the incident occurred shortly before 2 p.m.

This story is breaking and will be updated.

Trump taken to safety after Secret Service opens fire on man with possible gun at his Palm Beach golf club​


Donald Trump was taken to safety by the Secret Service after agents opened fire on a man who was spotted with what may have been a gun while the former president was on the links, according to law enforcement sources.

Sources said the Secret Service spotted a suspicious individual on the Trump International Golf Course West Palm Beach, and opened fire when agents saw what appeared to be the barrel of a gun.

It’s not clear whether the man was on the course or near it.

An agent opened fire, shooting multiple times.

“President Trump is safe following gunshots in his vicinity. No further details at this time,” Trump spokesman Steven Cheung said Sunday afternoon.

The man was later arrested by local police on I-95.

It comes almost exactly two months after Thomas Matthew Crooks shot Trump at a rally in Butler, Pa. on July 13 — wounding him in the ear.

Sen. Lindsey Graham took to X minutes after news of the shooting broke to laud the former president for his fortitude.

“Just spoke with President Trump. He is one of the strongest people I’ve ever known. He’s in good spirits and he is more resolved than ever to save our country.”

The West Palm Beach course is about five miles inland from Mar-a-Lago, which Trump dubbed the “Winter White House.”

The Secret Service — which came under widespread criticism following the July assassination attempt — wrote on X that it was investigating a “protective incident” involving the former president that occurred shortly before 2 p.m.

The agency said it’s coordinating with the Palm Beach County Sheriff’s office on the investigation.

Initial reports suggested two people were firing at each other. However, sources said investigators now believe the Secret Service agent was the only shooter.

The man’s motives are not yet known. He was arrested by Palm Beach County sheriff’s deputies.

The White House issued a statement soon after the incident: “The President and Vice President have been briefed about the security incident at the Trump International Golf Course, where former President Trump was golfing. They are relieved to know that he is safe. They will be kept regularly updated by their team.”

This is a developing story.

Wtf is going on? Has the CIA become another victim of the enshittification meme spreading everywhere? Have the spooks become so incompetent they can’t pull off assassinations anymore? Some sort of conservative glownigger vs lib glownigger civil war?

Excuse the power level, but I remember parking outside some fancy country club once and it was only like 10 minutes before some dickhead security guys came to kick me out. How was this “regular” person able to set up a spot in Trump’s own golf course only a few months after he almost got his head blown off by the other patsy?
 
I feel so bad for Trump personally.
Politically he may be a boomer that sucks Israel off way too much, but he has sacrificed a lot.
He didn't have to do any of this, he could have just stayed a mostly apolitical TV personality and gaudy real estate billionaire.
Since then, he has been vilified, insulted, ground down through partisan lawfare and now he survived his second assassination attempt.

The orange faggot must be a true patriot to suffer through such bullshit and not quit.
I just have to respect him.
You can look back, and it all comes back to Obama roasting him at that supper. I do hope Obama get what's coming to him. No lube.

Western civilization has a dire competency crisis. Look at the professor of breakdanceology from the Olympics.

Right, so Hanlon's Razor is a thing,
You have attributed conditions to villainy that simply result from stupidity.


Off-topic entirely, but Golf isn't a sport. If dressing up in a polo and slacks is part of your "sport"s look, you may just be a bit of a faggot. Any sport you can do comfortably as an 80+ year old between shitting yourself is not a sport. Golf is a sure sign that someone is just a fannypack-tier faggot. If you have bought clubs, shoes, and balls, you look ridiculous and everyone laughs at you when you talk about your shit-tier hobby behind your back.

Honestly I think Trump dying might be the best thing for the republicans from an electoral strategy standpoint. It would bring moderates back to the party and allow the GOP to pivot away from Trump without pissing off his base and seeming like cowards.
I don't think the establishment of assassination as policy by the Left would confine itself to Trump.

To your second point, if moderates snake and weasel their way back into power in the GOP, that's the end of the GOP as a real and viable opposition party. They'll be de facto Whigs and Tories, ineffectual and weak. Fuck moderates, however you define them.
