Recently, we all watched on bated breath as former President Donald Trump was whisked off the stage with blood on his face by multiple Secret Service agents at his Butler, Pennsylvania campaign rally after several loud pops rang out through the crowd in what has now been dubbed an assassination attempt on a former United States POTUS.
Reports have confirmed that Donald Trump was grazed in his right ear by a bullet.
Multiple sources, including the Trump Campaign, the US Secret Service, and the ex-president himself have all confirmed that Donald Trump is shaken, but in unharmed condition.
Butler County District Attorney Richard A Goldinger has also confirmed that the shooter, identified as 20-year-old Thomas Matthew Crooks, was “neutralized” on the scene, and one rally attendee lost their life.

Most of Donald’s children were quick to speak out in the aftermath of the attempt on their father’s life, ranging from a truly bizarre post from his eldest son Don Jr. to an emotional statement from his eldest daughter Ivanka.
As the dust began to settle around the incident, sources began to speak out with some of the inside details on what happened behind closed doors in Trumpworld.
The Daily Mail released a report that confirmed Donald Trump’s whereabouts in the aftermath of the violent attack, as well as which family member rushed to be by his side.
According to inside sources, Donald’s eldest daughter Ivanka rushed to meet her father at his Bedminster, N.J. golf club — where Trump tends to spend his summers — as soon as he was released from the hospital.
Sources further added that Ivanka, who is extremely close to her dad, spent a significant amount of time on the phone with him while he was still in the hospital, being treated for his wound.
“She is currently in Bedminster, where she’s been primarily living this summer, and met him upon his arrival last night as well as this morning,” the source told the tabloid.
In addition to her emotional statement on the night of the attack, Ivanka added that she believes that her late mother, Donald’s first ex-wife and the mother of his three eldest children, was “watching over” her dad last night:
Two years ago today, my mom passed away. I believe she was watching over Dad last night during the attempt on his life. I miss her every day and pray for the safety of the family and friends she left behind.”
Trump was said to be resting and recuperating at his New Jersey property with his family.
