Trump was the target of an assassination attempt while speaking at a rally on Saturday.

The former president, whose ear was covered in blood from a gunshot wound, was quickly taken away by Secret Service agents.

A local prosecutor said the suspected shooter and at least one person in the crowd were dead. The Secret Service said two bystanders were seriously injured.

About two and a half hours after the shooting, Trump posted a message on his social media platform Truth, saying a bullet “penetrated the upper part of my right ear.”

He said: ‘I knew straight away something was wrong. I heard a whooshing sound, shots and immediately felt the bullet ripping through my skin.

‘There was a lot of blood loss, so that’s when I realized what was going on.’

It was the first time since Ronald Reagan in 1981 that a president or presidential candidate had been shot.

The announcement comes in a highly polarized political atmosphere, just four months before the presidential election and days before Trump is officially announced as the Republican nominee at the party convention.

In a statement, Trump spokesman Steven Cheung said: “President Trump thanks law enforcement and first responders for their swift action during this heinous act.

“He is doing well and is being evaluated at a local medical facility.”

According to the Secret Service, the suspect fired from “an elevated position outside the meeting location.”

Trump is “safe and being evaluated,” the agency said.

President Joe Biden said, “There is no place in America for this kind of violence. It is sick. It is sick.”

Donald Trump Jr. said he spoke to his father on the phone and was “in good spirits.”

“He will never stop fighting to save America, no matter what the radical left throws at him,” Trump Jr. said.
