The world is all buzzing about bang, bang, bang goes the bullets. Due to there being an assassination attempt on Former President Donald Trump’s life. It was during a rally in his honor, in a sleep Pennsylvania town near Pittsburgh.
Even though the gun man was killed, this tragedy could have been avoided. Because America still needs to figure out a way to control these guns and mental illness.
In other words, as of Sunday morning, law enforcement officials confirmed to The Associated Press that bomb-making materials were found inside the vehicle of the man suspected in the shooting. There were also bomb-making materials found at his home.
- The shooting is being investigated as an attempted assassination of the former president. The FBI has assumed the role of the lead federal law enforcement agency in the investigation.
- The FBI said late Saturday that they had not yet identified a motive for the assassination attempt.
- The Trump campaign and RNC say the convention in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, will proceed after the rally shooting, and that Trump looks forward to joining.
- President Joe Biden said “everybody must condemn” the attack. The White House said Biden spoke to Trump after the shooting incident.
- It was the former president’s last rally before the Republican National Convention opens Monday in Milwaukee.
- Butler County is located about 46 miles outside of Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania.
Last, Trump’s campaign said the presumptive GOP nominee was doing “fine” after the shooting, which he said pierced the upper part of his right ear.
Our thoughts and prayers go out to all the people involved in this travesty, and hope that we can move forward from it.
