Former President Donald Trump revealed in an exclusive interview that his wife, former first lady Melania Trump, was present when a would-be assassin opened fire at a rally in Butler, Pennsylvania earlier this month. The incident occurred on July 13 when 20-year-old Thomas Matthew Crooks fired shots at a campaign rally, injuring Trump and attendees and tragically killing firefighter Corey Comperatore as he shielded his family from the gunfire.
During the interview, Trump shared that Melania was deeply affected by the incident and was unable to speak about it. He recounted the moment when he was hit and saw his hand covered in blood, causing Melania to fear the worst had happened. The former president emphasized the gravity of the situation, highlighting the need to investigate the security breakdowns that occurred leading up to the rally.
