The New York post is reporting more details: NY Post reporting:
Former President Donald Trump is believed to have been shot at a rally in Butler, Pennsylvania, Saturday evening during a campaign rally.
Numerous gunshots could be heard, the crowd screaming, and Trump could be seen grabbing the back of the right side of his head as U.S. Secret Service agents rushed to get him off the stage. Calls were later heard that the shooter was down. There is no word at this time on the identification of the suspect at this time.
As Trump stood back up surrounded by agents, blood could be seen above his right ear, with blood going toward his mouth. Reports say he is expected to survive the incident.
“President Trump thanks law enforcement and first responders for their quick action during this heinous act. He is fine and is being checked out at a local medical facility. More details will follow,” said Steven Cheung a Trump spokesperson in a press statement moments ago.
The Trump campaign has said he will be okay and is being checked out at a nearby medical facility.
As he was being escorted off the stage Trump repeatedly pumped his fist to the crowd.
This all comes as the Republican National Convention is scheduled to start Monday in Milwaukee, Wisconsin.
The Secret Service posted on X that it is an active Secret Service investigation.
President Joe Biden was briefed on the incident while coming out of church in Rehoboth Beach, Delaware.
This is a developing story. Carolina Journal will update the story as information becomes available. The post Apparent shots fired at Donald Trump during Pennsylvania rally first appeared on Carolina Journal.

Here is a retired Canadian army sniper who has also worked protective details for major world leaders, who says the Trump shooter had to have had help from insiders:

Just a few weeks ago after the SCOTUS ruling on presidential immunity, there was a lot of loose, ugly, and disgusting talk by liberals, including some elected Democrats, involving someone killing Trump. Just a few weeks later, someone actually tried to do it. The Biden Democrats and the far left own this.

Trump on John McCain
I gave him the kind of funeral that he wanted, which as president I had to approve. I don't care about this. I didn't get [a] thank you. That's OK. We sent him on the way, but I wasn't a fan of John McCain.[19] |

I think Trump did it to himself. Gets the base out. Of course I have no evidence but either do any of you for the stuff you post

Trump on Paul Pelosi -
“We’ll stand up to crazy Nancy Pelosi, who ruined San Francisco — how’s her husband doing, anybody know?” Trump said to a raucous crowd of California Republicans at a state party convention. “And she’s against building a wall at our border, even though she has a wall around her house — which obviously didn’t do a very good job.” |

Glenn Beck just had a professional sniper on his radio program who says the shooter had to have had help and this could not have been done by one man acting alone. His expert was Dallas Alexander, a retired Canadian army sniper who has the world's record for the longest kill shot, who has also worked on the other side of the aisle providing security assistance to important leaders including Canada's prime minister. Alexander said that there was no level of incompetence that could explain away what happened. He pointed out that he had never himself worked a protective detail where the enemy sniper was allowed to fire first before being taken out.
It is also interesting that they are now saying that explosive devises were found in the shooter's home as well as his car. One wonders what other mayhem he had in mind. The lack of info that is being given on the shooter and his motives is also concerning. Will we have another coverup like the FBI did with the transgender shooter in Tennessee? |

Yes, Bobbie, that sounds EXACTLY like what the Biden Democrats are doing with their distortions about Project 2025. Gaslighting. Also, all of their "Trump is Hitler" and "threat to democracy" crap.

Gaslighting is a form of psychological abuse or manipulation in which the abuser attempts to sow self-doubt and confusion in their victim's mind. Typically, gaslighters are seeking to gain power and control over the other person, by distorting reality and forcing them to question their own judgment and intuition.
