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.

Nor it isn't hugbox for senile hipsters looking to act like edgy fedora-tipping snarky posters. Take your boosters grandpa and go back to sleep. It is one thing to make sensible and rational post and is another to make nonsensical and schizopost about trivial shit no one cares about.

It's crazy how the competency crisis is unfolding. It's permeating all aspects of society but seems to be hitting large organizations the hardest. Soon it will be reverberating in the common man's daily life but we are not quite there yet. You can watch people talk that are part of the military or intelligence services or the executive branch and while they always seem confident it's not hard to scratch the surface and see they are trying to push their agendas seemingly on just a wing and a prayer because they don't have the assets in quality or quantity to achieve their goals. Once they break their money printer I think a lot of eyes will finally be opened to just how rotten things are at the top for they won't be able to paper over their continuous mistakes.

This is what happens when an entire generation operates on the failing upwards mentality. When nothing is ever anyone's fault, merit is racist, and failing upward is the expectation and the reality across all institutions. Especially government.

Show me where I thumped a Bible, ever. I think I may have said that Christians aren’t as bad as the left makes them out to be, sure.

It’s a neurotic trait, the way you load your sentences.

“Any time someone on my side does something wrong, (…)”

Your argument is just “yeah huh he’s a Republican” and you hand waived away the part where I mentioned he exclusively donated to democrats

Not only two assasination attempts but both by people who seemed mostly normal.

I’d unironically be completely accepting of some schizo left winger trying it because yeah, crazies, but the last two dudes seemed almost bipartisan.

like, the average breadtuber is inoculated to the the concept of “one life, it’s worth a shot” but it’s hitting the disaffected radical centrist like smallpox in America

Just ignore him, he is retarded.
He will fuck off to his containment thread eventually and proclaim victory how he totally owned all of the Trumpite scum, exposing them as the bible-thumping elderly men they really are.
Then while we were crying girly tears of defeat, he gave us all tophats to make us suicidal.
He might be the only guy with a Hulk Hogan avatar that is lower IQ than the original.

Assassinations are back on the menu, it seems. It is well-documented that he was caught up in the same blackmail operations that all past politicians have been. It seems as if the blackmail that previously kept him in line is no longer working, otherwise people with guns wouldn't have been sent to take him out.

It is absolutely radiant with AIDS, how homosexual the take that “right wingers are old Bible thumpers” is.

If you take like one more load in your asshole, critical mass will be reached and you will become the first faggot to conceive

Another PROTIP: When you want an elderly, obese man to penetrate you so badly that you take personal offense when someone doesn't like him and seethe when someone talks badly about him, don't call someone else gay.

If you retards stop acting like an 85 year old bible thumper, I'll stop calling you one. You literally could not be more like one. You retards even want birth control banned :story:
