US President Donald Trump has reacted to the attempted intrusion at Mar-a-Lago resort on Sunday, suggesting that he faced ongoing threats because of his prominence. Speaking at an Angel Families event at the White House on Monday, he said he was unsure about his personal safety and longevity in office, framing it as a consequence of being a “consequential” leader.
“I don’t know how long I’ll be around,” he told the audience. “Got a lot of people gunning for me.”
