Former US President and Republican Presidential nominee Donald Trump faced another assassination attempt yesterday at his golf course in Western Palm Florida. This incident comes hard on the heels on of another one where a shooter tried to eliminate Trump at a rally in Buttler Pennsylvania.
News reports indicate that a 58 year old man identified as Ryan Westly Routh, is the suspect behind the incident, and he was taken into custody. Donald Trump ‘s second assassination attempt shooting incident comes just after his ear was grazed by a bullet which marked the first life attempt in Buttler during a rally campaign.
Fox News Sean confirmed that the Republican nominee is unharmed after gun shots were heard when Trump was on the 5th hole at the golf course. Within a few hours, former president Trump also shared an alert that he is safe and unharmed.
“I’m a Donald J. Trump, Fear not!, I’m safe and well and no hurt. Thank God… I will never Surrender,” said the charismatic Trump.
Speculation is rife and questions are being raised as to what is really happening to Trump. Could it be political motives, or enemies from business empire? Others have gone to say that these are choreographed attacks to attract sympathisers as the race to White house heats up ahead of the November election.
What is of no doubt is Trump is a business man, a politician, and in that world anything is possible, enemies are bound to be made. If the attempts on Trump’s life are politically motivated, it will be a direct attack on democracy which the Americans have appointed themselves champions of.
Whilst peculation goes on in the US and across the world, CNBC reports the former U.S President second assassination attempt has taken China’ s heavily censored media by storm, prompting a mockery of the US political landscape.
