Trump urges Americans to 'stand united' after assassination attempt | DW News
Former US President Donald Trump has told Americans they need to "stand united," after he was shot and injured at a campaign rally in Pennsylvania.
The FBI is leading the investigation into the incident that it has called an assassination attempt.
Trump was in the town of Butler, Pennsylvania, addressing a crowd at an open-air rally, when gunshots rang out. The Secret Service says the shooter opened fire from the roof of a nearby building. The suspect was less than 150 meters from the stage, on which Trump was speaking.
One spectator was killed, with two others critically injured. The suspected shooter was shot dead as well.

Today it’s victim blaming by these guests. No accountability for everyone saying he is an existential threat. People saying he must be stopped by any means. Most of the media says things like this, This doesn’t pour fuel on the fire also? It’s always the other person, not your side. This is a big issue. Everyone must use this moment to look in the mirror.

As a Pennsylvania resident it should be stated that it is not surprising he was a registered Republican due to our state having closed primaries. I live in Philadelphia which always goes Democrat in order to participate in local politics you have to register Democrat to have any say. Butler is a red district so anyone who cares about politics is likely a registered Republican regardless of who they actually vote for.

Insider job….come on ppl.
Those are not Trump's words!
Annoying reporter.
The German guy . . Kiesewetter or whatever his name is, instantly grandstands his own views, his own policies using Trumps situation as an example of what's wrong with society. He's doing EXACTLY what mainstream media do and have done to polarize the people (even the DW guy is surprised, I think). MOST reporters are using this as a golden opportunity to hopefully unite both camps, using conciliatory tones in their interviews in the hope that this may cause a turning point between the 2 sides and things might just become more civil, with a bit more mutual respect. This guy (Kiesewetter) is not helping at all... at all.
I still can't believe that the Secret Service just allowed that to happen This cannot possibly be swept under the "incompetence" excuse
What happened in 2020 January 6th was shocking also.

I stopped listening at about the seven minute mark when your member of the German Parliament stated that the US had to reign in the number of small arms in personal possession. I would remind that man that another man, not unlike him put forward a similar vote in the Reichstag in, what was it 1934? I guess that Germans can change their constitution depending on which way the political wind blows.
