The gunman believed to have been behind the attempted assassination attempt on former President Donald Trump Saturday was shot and killed by Secret Service, sources told The Post.
The shooter, identified as a Chinese man, was in a sniper position located hundreds of yards away from Trump’s podium in Butler, Pa. as he spoke to a campaign crowd, sources said.

God protected America today. Fortunately it looks like God has not abandoned us. Yet.
I agree with you. otoh I am really gratified to know that whether they are Obama brownshirts or Chinese spies, none of them can shoot. He shot the teleprompter, a shard hit President Trump, and a bystander was murdered by a bullet. Yep, that’s the Left, missing the intended target, murdering innocent bystanders one at a time, kind of like Chiraq, every weekend. BTW Has the WH, Biden or Obama condemned the attack? I can hear Hillary from here, “Drat! Foiled again.”
New York Post changed the shooter’s race quicker than Jake from State Farm changed his.
The shooter, identified only as a white male, was in a sniper position located hundreds of yards away from Trump’s podium in Butler, Pa. as he spoke to a campaign crowd, sources said.
Waiting for his take, too.
Duh…!
It is very common for someone coming under fire for the first time to get such a huge adrenaline dump that they lose control of fine motor skills for a few moments.
Another incredibly close call of a bullet——barely missing the Pope’s vital organs.
Pope John II placed one of the bullets from his body at the shrine in Fatima later when he recovered.
“The sainted Holy Father was shot during the assassination attempt of May 13, 1981 on the feast of Our Lady of Fatima. Sustaining two gunshot wounds, Saint John Paul II claimed that, “one hand pulled the trigger, another guided the bullet,” and it was Our Lady herself who saved him from certain death.”
—Saint John Paul II Society website
“He wasn’t hit in vital parts but they were not light injuries. Important blood vessels were just barely missed.”
He said the Pope was shot twice in the lower intestine.
One bullet passed through the body, causing another wound when it left, and another stayed in the body and was extracted by surgeons. The Pope also had two slight wounds on his right arm and one on his left hand.
The bulletin said the trajectory of one bullet which entered the Pope’s abdomen was long and had caused a massive hemorrhage requiring a transfusion of three liters of A-negative blood, which had not immediately been available.
—Sydney Morning Herald.
Donald Trump himself says a bullet went through his ear. Why are you repeating the teleprompter slander?
Trump released a statement saying he was shot through his right ear.
I am interested to hear Dan Bongino’s take on this.
Yep. They are either incompetent or complicit...
I didn’t think you were, my FRiend.
I just admit I often jump to Richard Belzer style conclusions if not Fox Mulder ones.
I’m sure a doctor can tell the difference between a bullet wound and shrapnel from a teleprompter.
They had one job.
A judge will rule that his identity cannot be released. /sarc
Sorry dude, but if an assassin gets a headshot graze on a protectee, the SS failed. Assuming of course that the directive was to protect.
