Trump was showing off a chart of border crossing numbers when bangs started ringing through the crowd at his campaign rally in Pennsylvania.Republican presidential candidate former President Donald Trump is surround by U.S. Secret Service agents at a campaign rally.Updated:BUTLER, Pa. — Donald Trump was whisked off the stage at a rally in Butler, Pennsylvania after apparent gunshots rang through the crowd.
House Speaker Mike Johnson posted on X, the website formerly known as Twitter, that he was praying for Trump.will have one last chance Saturday to unveil his vice presidential pick on a rally stage before the Republican National Convention kicks off in Milwaukee next week. He continued to fundraise off the announcement Saturday, asking supporters: “Should I announce my VP today?”Trump has made clear in recent days that his preference is to dramatically reveal his pick live at the convention — something the ratings-obsessed former president has said would make the proceedings more “interesting” and “exciting.”
Saturday’s venue, in a critical battleground state, sits about an hour from the border with Ohio, home to Sen. JD Vance, one of the presumptive nominee’s top contenders — which had sparked another round of speculation. Most presumptive major party nominees have chosen their running mates before their respective conventions began. But both Ronald Reagan in 1980 and George H.W. Bush in 1988 waited to announce their picks at the party gatherings.
Trump has also raised the idea of waiting until later in the week and pushing the announcement, he told the hosts, to Tuesday or Wednesday.
