US Trump is ‘safe following gunshots in his vicinity,’ campaign says in statement - An AK-47 was discovered in the bushes, per local law enforcement

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.

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.

He lived on Kamehameha highway? We all know who is behind this. Thankfully Trump instant transmissioned out of the way of the zetsumei bullet.

 

[SaidNoOneEver]

Thunderdomers are STILL looking for thosTe NOVA H1 Audio earings Harris was wearing at the debate.

These?

 

[CaliforniaRaisin]

If it was a bit it would as least be kind of funny, HHH and the people who argue with him are just legitimately retarded.

... and it's infinitely more entertaining than 20 pages of people circle jerking to /pol/ theories about Jews.

Every. Damn. Time.

 

[Paranoia Machine]

You are the Dutchman.

No you.

 

[TerminalTryHard]

... and it's infinitely more entertaining than 20 pages of people circle jerking to /pol/ theories about Jews.

Every. Damn. Time.

I'll disagree cause you never what new thing the jews are behind, but the HHH argument is always the fucking same.

 

[Fred Herbert]

I might suggest the same to you; calling people whom you dislike fags is oh-so-2000s and super homophobic. Come up with a new insult; stop being a typical conservative who hates moving forward to a bright future!

Retarded Nigger Faggot.

 

[Hollywood Hulk Hogan]

She did badly even in her home state, she did awful but just gritted her teeth and stuck it out longer than Vivek because she had more big donors, not actual grassroot support. If you follow politics even somewhat closely you'll actually understand these details.

We believe the """conspiracies""" because they often end up true, like the COVID lab leak and Hunter's laptop lol. You're the one believing the official fake news narratives whenever they align with you, and then you don't when they're against you, such as the confirmation of Ashley's diary, which you still make up conspiracies to deny despite Ashley herself admitting it's real and never even implied it was doctored.

Lol those conspiracies aren't true, and you guys also fell for the "Eating cats and dogs" thing that Vance himself admitted was made up and you believe there was election fraud even after Trump's lawyers admitted to a judge, under oath, that there was none

Anyway, let's go back to our understanding since I don't want to get into a back and forth for 800 pages

 

[Biggie Smalls' Taint]

Get Loomed, get doomed. we should have seen this coming.

Loomer used her face implants to deflect the bullets, saving Trump's life.

 

[VeteranOfTheRetardWars]

I didn't go through the whole thread, but he was a Trumper in 2016 and was a huge Vivek and Haley guy. He was definitely one of your fellow bible thumping elderly men.

I know, anytime someone on your side does something wrong your pea-sized brain just can't comprehend it so you cling to conspiracy theories and cope in unhealthy ways. You need to just accept it.

It’s not a conspiracy theory to say that the glowies have a long and documented history of using hallucinogens and brainwashing to make sleeper agents who act against their own beliefs and interests.

 

[COME ON OUT YOU RAPIST]

"Hmm, why do insane people keep trying to shoot the former president?"

I think 7.62x54mm would be a bit difficult to acquire in the USA, though

Nah there’s so much postwar it literally goes for a dollar a round, unironically a very nice round to shoot with

 

[Terrifik]

sorry for null having to talk FBI for people touching the Cow.

BHUTANSE

Did someone say Bhutanese?

 

[Local Farmer]

Nothing about this faggot screams "normal", his Twitter read like Reddit in human form.

His entire twitter is just:

@CarlosDanger :RESPOND to the allegations that you have fucked a man on video. Go on CNN and talk about it! If anyone has information contact1800sneed and sneed.chuck.gov

 

[Buck Broken Chimp]

Now that Trump is fucking Laura Loomer.

I'm just saying what we're thinking.

I couldn't even hate fuck Loomer, especially not now that she looks like That Muslim skeleton puppet Jeff Dunham had.

You couldn't even like take pride in her as a submissive Jewess in your own personal joy division, that you are defiling with your goy cock. She is clearly trying to hard to look white, wants "aryan Jew babies" and even converted to Christianity. You can't humiliate someone with no pride.

 

[The Saltening]

sorry full null having to talk FBI for people touching the Cow.

people going there and posting are going to ruin shit. wouldnt be surprised if the feds pull IPs and visit them.

 

[Fishmalk Observer]

And leftist shithead confirmed. How come every leftist becomes violent retards when Trump is around or mentionned?

 

[King Metalia]

... and it's infinitely more entertaining than 20 pages of people circle jerking to /pol/ theories about Jews.

Every. Damn. Time.

Not if you came to this thread specifically for the /pol/ theories.

Thankfully Trump's failed assassination attempts prove that the people crazy enough to try to kill him are pretty retarded.
