In the days following a second death attempt on former president Donald Trump, Vice President Kamala Harris called for calm.
Trump was saved by a second attempted assassination attempt on Sunday evening, when the Secret Service shot at a gentleman at Trump International Golf Club, which they claimed was carrying a gun. He was eventually taken into custody and stopped by Martin County authorities.
In Washington, people on both sides of the hall reacted and made claims, with the White House claiming Harris and President Joe Biden being aware of what transpired.
According to the White House speech,” The President and Vice President have been informed about the security event at the Trump International Golf Course, where former president Trump was playing golf.” They are relieved to know that he is healthy. They will be constantly updated by their team.
Sen. J. D. Vance, Trump’s running mate, said that he talked to Trump before reports of the killing was announced.
” I’m glad President Trump is safe. I spoke to him before the announcement was open and he was, wonderfully, in great souls”, Vance wrote. ” Still much we do n’t know, but I’ll be hugging my kids extra tight tonight and saying a prayer of gratitude”.
Gov. Tim Walz (D-MN), Harris’s running partner, posted well wishes for Trump.
” Gwen and I are glad to hear that Donald Trump is safe”, he said. ” Violence has no place in our nation. It’s not who we are as a society”.
Chuck Schumer, the secretary of state, claimed the Secret Service had given him information.
” I applaud the Secret Service for their rapid response to maintain former President Trump’s safety”, he said. There is no position in this nation for any kind of political violence. The offender had be brought to justice in the most serious way possible.
Former President Barack Obama retweeted Harris’s article, and eventually posted about a golf tournament in Virginia, a move that drew some controversy online.
