Report: Trump Safe after ‘Gunshots in His Vicinity’

FROM CNN: 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.

And Via Reuters:

Trump’s campaign had earlier said he was safe following gunshots in his vicinity but gave no details.
“Sources said that Trump was never in danger,” the newspaper said. Trump campaign spokesperson Steven Cheung did not immediately respond to a request for comment.

CNN, Fox News and The New York Times identified the suspect as Ryan Wesley Routh, 58, of Hawaii, citing unnamed law enforcement officials. The FBI declined to comment and Reuters could not independently verify his identity.

Also from Reuters:

Reuters was not able to confirm these were the suspect’s accounts and law enforcement agencies declined to comment, but public access to the Facebook and X profiles was removed hours after the shooting.
The three accounts bearing Routh’s name suggest he was an avid supporter of Ukraine in its war against Russia. In several of the posts, he appeared to be trying to help recruit soldiers for Ukraine’s war effort.

In addition:

Secretary of Homeland Security Alejandro Mayorkas on Sunday condemned violence against public officials and candidates.

In a post on X, Mayorkas also commended the US Secret Service for “its quick action to preempt this apparent assassination attempt and protect the former President.”

“DHS and the Secret Service are closely working with federal, state and local law enforcement partners to learn all of the facts surrounding this incident. The safety and security of Presidential candidates and other protectees is the highest priority for the Secret Service, ” Mayorkas said.

  1. Why are y’all allowing this man to carry hatred forward to our nation. And y’all wonder why the kids are full of anger and hatred! 😠😠😠😠

  2. Trump is carrying “hatred forward to our nation”???? BWAHAHAHAHAH!!!!!!!! You need to stop showing your ignorance and stupidity. Listen to the Left-wing Communist propaganda media. They want Trump assassinated. They call him an “existential threat to ‘democracy'”, another Hitler, another Stalin, a dictator, he will destroy the U.S. Constitution, etc. This is triggering many on the left to physically attack Republicans, Conservatives and Trump. These are ALL the talking points of the Left-wing, Communist, seditious Media projecting what that Democrats-Communists and radical Leftist-Communist Kabala Harris (her Father was a registered Communist professor who taught economics at some university) are the real “existential threat to democracy”. The Leftist-Communist corrupt mainstream media is the one inflaming Trump Derangement Syndrome defectives that ALL happen to be registered Democrats. All mass shooters are registered Democrats, Socialists, environment socialists, anti-Americans, Communists, anti-Trump, anti-Republicans. Look it up. It’s all there in their voting records and in their manifestos.

    Kabala Harris even admitted she is a far-left radical in several past interviews when she was CA attorney general and U.S. Senator.

  3. BWAHAHAHAHAH: variant spelling of word for menacing, baleful, or sinister laugh. Commonly associated with DC’s Justice League International comic books from the late 1980s and later.
