President Donald Trump was evacuated from the White House Correspondents’ Dinner after multiple gunshots were heard in the ballroom.
One officer was shot, but he was “saved by the fact that he was wearing obviously a very good bulletproof vest,” Trump later told reporters at the White House.
The suspected shooter was identified later Saturday as Cole Allen of Torrance, California, a former senior law enforcement official briefed on the matter told MS NOW.
I’m betting this was all staged. Either that or Iran is trying to get him.
*Edit: Alternative Idea – what if this was one of his cultists who came to kill off the “fake news” media?
George W Bush came to speak at my high school, BEFORE he was President; this was just on the campaign trail.
Aside from getting a chance to speak to him (“to the rank”), what image has remained with me 20+ years later was leaving school later and looking back at the sight of these men running back and forth on the roof of my school carrying HUGE guns as part of the security. It really resonated with me that I while I was shaking that man’s hand, I very likely had one of those giant rifles aimed at me…just in case.
And, this was just on the campaign trail.
