Minutes after Trump began speaking at his weekend hatealong in Butler. Pennsylvania, apparent shots rang out. Video shows him clutching his head and then dropping to the stage. When the Secret Service rushed him from the stage, blood could be seen on his ear and the right side of his head.
Within minutes of the event, politicians of both parties announced they were praying for him.
I wonder how many of them are actually praying for the same outcome I’m praying for?
More updates as new information comes forth.
Remember to pray like you did when he was taken to Walter Reed with COVID back in 2020.
UDATE #1
Secret Service says it was what it looked like - a scratch.
UPDATE #2
Shooter was apparently “down” quickly. No information about the shooter, but NBC reporter on-scene says he is hearing that they are looking at this as an act of terrorism rather than an act of domestic political violence. (Wild-ass guess follows) I don’t see how they could make such a determination so quickly, other than the identity of the shooter.

I think it was a fake.A photo bomb.He is milking the crowd for sympathy so he doesn’t have to be pivotable at the convention next week.
Don't waste your breath. He got a crease over his ear, and if there were anything more serious the motorcade wouldn't be speeding away, one of the ambulances generally standing by at one of these rallies would be speeding away. He wouldn't have been pumping his fist and shouting as they surround him and take him off; he isn't a brave soul.
This will, unfortunately, increase the tendency to violence among his followers and in fact wouldn't have been a bad move for a group of fascists to have staged, had they been hoping to instigate and justify violence surrounding the election. I hope those tasked with Joe Biden's safety redouble their efforts and surveillance.
