Donald Trump was at a rally in Butler, Pennsylvania, when the sound of gunfire were heard. Images posted by media show what appear to be blood on Donald Trump’s face. Secret Service rushed him from the stage. Trump had begun his speech when people heard five shots, followed by Trump’s going down, followed by the Secret Service surrounding him.

From Fox News:

President Trump was rushed off the stage by the Secret Service at a rally in Butler, Pennsylvania, on Saturday, after apparent gunshots rang out.

Gunfire appeared to break out shortly after Trump began speaking at the rally at Butler Farm Show grounds on Saturday evening.

The former president had just begun to fire up the crowd when as many as five shots were heard and he went down, surrounded by Secret Service agents.

“And then the worst president in the history of our country took over. And look what happened to our country. Probably 20 million people [came in illegally]. And, you know, that’s a little bit old, that chart… that chart’s a couple of months old. And if you want to really see something that sad, take a look at what happened over…” Trump said before gunfire rang out.

  1. The most pressing unanswered question is did Thomas Matthew Crooks mail off his absentee ballot yet?

    1. I’m going to say probably. But only because bomb making materials were found at his house. But I will point out that being dead is no excuse not to vote. I would still expect him to cast to vote at the polls.

    2. He already voted in the next election and since it’s Pennsylvania all elections going out until 2040

    3. Never fear Hack, his local community organizer has all 50 of his mail in ballots safely in hand.

  2. Whoa, this place has a next page option for the comment section? Never knew that.

      1. Another instance of the “Lars Factor”. Whenever he posts a comment, it sets off a chain reaction of cascading comments, most of them pointing out the fallacies of his esteemed intellect.

        1. He will be back right after the election to tell us how dumb we were for voting for Trump.

        2. It’s easy to tell if Major Moonbat has spouted off on a thread, he comes, shits his pantyhose and then gets dogpiled for his bullshit!

          1. 10 years ago I would say he’s just a troll because nobody believes the stupid shit he spouts out. All I have to do is scroll through any social media and realize there are SO MANY more idiots just like him.

  3. The victim killed at the rally has been identified. As usual, the worthless vermin, kill some of our very best members of society, those who put their lives on the line everyday to help and rescue others.

    A lot more here: There is something wrong with the web page there, it got really blurry at the end.

  4. Just in AOC and Obama are call for a day of mourning for the Shooter.

    😀😆😜😎

  5. The Staten Island GOP gave the media a beat down in their press conference. It was one of the most one-sided things I’ve seen in since the debate.

    The guy from NBC literally asked if Trump wanted to get shot?

          1. Perfect. Is she eligible for unemployment or did they just move her down the hall to somebody else’s office.

            1. Likely the latter, especially if she’s either related to or has good dirt on the right people.

      1. Don’t justify the downvotes with a counter, eh?
        Weak sauce douchebaggery.

        Welcome to the internet, I guess

    1. That Staten Island GOP presser was amazing.

      Enter something about ‘however much you hate the press…’ here.

      Worth a watch or two.
