Trump Campaign Just Tried To Falsely Suggest A New Assassination Attempt







A vague statement from the Trump campaign claimed that shots were fired in the vicinity of the ex-president while he was golfing, but the incident had nothing to do with Trump.

This is the entire statement from the Trump campaign:

“President Trump is safe following gunshots in his vicinity. No further details at this time.” – Steven Cheung, Trump Campaign Communications Director

The New York Post reported that the incident was not near Trump and had nothing to do with him,

“Two people exchanged gunfire outside of Trump International Golf Course West Palm Beach. The shooters were targeting each other, and the gunfire was not targeting Trump, the sources said.

The newspaper also reported that Trump was leaving the golf course at the time of the shooting.

On the same day that new polls were released showing that Trump is trailing Vice President Kamala Harris, it is odd to get this claim that shots were fired near Trump, from a campaign that is looking to change the momentum of the presidential race.

The Trump campaign didn’t say that Trump was targeted, and their statement was technically correct, but they were trying to create the false impression that someone was targeting the ex-president.

Trump is losing, and with time running out, his campaign seems to be getting desperate.
