In mid-July, an assassin shot Trump at a campaign rally in Butler. The Republican was injured and a visitor was killed. Now the former president wants to return there.
At the beginning of October, Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump plans to appear again at the location in Pennsylvania where he was the victim of an assassination attempt in mid-July. The former president’s campaign team announced a rally for October 5 at the site in Butler where he was shot. The 78-year-old wants to remember the man who was killed in the attack and the two people who were injured, it was said. He also wants to thank the security and rescue services for their efforts.
An assassin shot Trump at a Republican Party campaign rally in Butler in July. One visitor died and two others were injured. Trump was hit in the right ear by a bullet. The perpetrator was killed by security forces.
One story became many
Shortly after the assassination, Trump appeared at the Republican convention in Milwaukee in July, where he was ceremoniously chosen as the party’s presidential candidate. There he spoke in detail about the attack on him and declared: “You won’t hear it from me again because it’s actually too painful to tell.” In fact, hardly a campaign appearance goes by in which Trump doesn’t address the assassination. He often emphasizes that he “took a bullet for democracy.”
Just a few days ago, there was another incident: The Secret Service shot an armed man who was hiding in the bushes at Trump’s golf course in Florida while the former president was playing there. The suspect did not fire a bullet and fled, but was arrested and charged shortly afterwards. The authorities assume that he too wanted to assassinate Trump.
