Trump reveals new details of first assassination attempt in new interview

During his second rally in Butler, Pennsylvania, President Trump shared new details about his first assassination attempt, which occurred on July 13.

He recounted how his son Barron learned about the incident while playing tennis, with someone informing him that his father had been shot.

Trump described the chaotic scene as he was shot in the ear by gunman Thomas Matthew Crooks and quickly escorted off stage by Secret Service agents.

Trump praised the hospital’s preparedness for a presidential emergency, revealing that it was closed to the public upon his arrival.

After the shooting, he raised his fist in the air, prompting cheers from the crowd.

He also held a moment of silence for Corey Comperatore, a rally attendee who died protecting his family during the incident, as reported by Fox New in a exclusive interview.

Elon Musk made an appearance at the rally, encouraging attendees to vote as the election approaches.
