Can’t believe this! In the middle of a rally last night, a man tried to rush the stage while Donald Trump was speaking:
They believed the man had a gun, but that could not be confirmed by Yahoo News. The Trump campaign and the Secret Service had no immediate comment.
Trump had paused his stump speech to call out a protester when several Secret Service agents suddenly rushed to him and grabbed him off the stage. Chaos ensued as the crowd began to rush away from the stage. Some rushed back toward a barricaded area where the press corps was set up and began screaming at them.
“Why don’t you cover this!” a man screamed as reporters stood on their chairs with cameras, trying to get a better look. “Liars!”
As rally attendees began to fearfully race for the exits, Trump aides rushed to the candidate’s traveling press corps and ordered them to immediately rush to the motorcade.
Reporters ran through the crowd. Heavily armed police officers with machine guns were seen escorting a man backstage. They declined to comment to reporters about the incident.
Trump’s traveling press corps was initially rushed toward the motorcade, amid word from the campaign that the candidate would not return to the stage. But suddenly, about seven minutes after the incident began, Trump’s entrance song — “God Bless the USA” — suddenly boomed throughout the convention hall and reporters were rushed back in the room, where the candidate had retaken the stage.
“No one ever said it would be easy for us,” Trump said, thanking the Secret Service. And then he returned to his usual stump speech.
Trump is a badass for getting back on the state and finishing what he started. Do you think Hillary would have? No, she would’ve hid out for weeks if roles were reversed.
Those secret service members should be praised! Amazing work on their behalf.
Thank the Lord this turned out as it did, could have been so much worse.
