Trump Shooting: The Sequel

Unread post by TC Talks »

Another responsible gun owner out for some Sunday fun.
A shooting took place on the grounds of the Trump International Golf Course West Palm Beach on Sunday while former President Donald J. Trump was at the course, the Palm Beach County Sheriff’s Office said, but officials said that Mr. Trump was safe and that the intent was unknown.

“President Trump is safe following gunshots in his vicinity,” Steven Cheung, the Trump campaign’s communications director, said in a statement. “No further details at this time.”

Teri Barbera, a spokeswoman for the Palm Beach County Sheriff’s Office, confirmed that a shooting took place “on the grounds” of the Trump International Golf Course West Palm Beach while Mr. Trump was present. A “person of interest” has been detained, she said.

“The intent right now is unknown,” Ms. Barbera added. A news conference was expected this afternoon.

The U.S. Secret Service said that it was investigating “a protective incident involving former President Donald Trump” in conjunction with the Palm Beach County Sheriff’s Office that occurred shortly before 2 p.m.
283,000,000 Americans didn't vote for Trump.

The gun shots were fired by the Secret Service at someone with a gun.

It appears our former president has pissed someone off who wants to take him out. I am glad he is unhurt but one of the alphabet agencies needs to do a deep dive and figure this out. If they don't eventually his luck may run out.

Seems like law enforcement responded appropriately. I can't understand why Trump is attracting these kind of incidents.
“Secret Service personnel opened fire on a gunman” near the property line of the Trump International Golf Club West Palm Beach, according to Rafael Barros, the special agent in charge of the Miami field office for the Secret Service. Sheriff Ric Bradshaw of Palm Beach County said that near the bushes where the suspected gunman was, “an AK-47 style rifle with a scope” and “a GoPro which he was going to use to take pictures" were found.

A Secret Service agent was one hole ahead of Trump while he was golfing and spotted a rifle barrel sticking out of a fence in the golf club, Sheriff Ric Bradshaw of Palm Beach County said at a news conference. The agent “immediately engaged” with the person holding the rifle, who fled. Bradshaw confirmed that law enforcement officials had a potential suspect in custody.

The last one was a Republican with MAGA parents and his target was a matter of convenience… given that experience I will hold off any judgements until we know the who and their background.

I doubt it. Especially if it turns out to be a supporter or former supporter he turned off by flip flopping around on something. That’s the main flaw in not caring about anything you say.

Don't think so. Just proves that the fat fuck facist was golfing rather than campaigning 50 days from election.

The one think I believe people underestimate is all the Trumpers who are going to intimidate those voting in the inner city.
