A spokesperson for Donald Trump’s campaign says he is safe after gunshots were heard while he was at his Florida Golf Club.
“President Trump is safe following gunshots in his vicinity. No further details at this time," said Steven Cheung, Trump campaign communications director.
The shooting occurred near Trump International Golf Course in West Palm Beach, Florida, according to sources familiar with the matter. Trump happened to be at the club at the time.
The Secret Service said in a statement that it’s working in conjunction with the Palm Beach County Sheriff’s Office to investigate “a protective incident involving former President Donald Trump that occurred shortly before 2 p.m. [ET]. The former president is safe.”
A spokesman for the sheriff’s department said, “we do have a potential suspect” and said it would hold a news conference Sunday afternoon.
President Joe Biden and Vice President Kamala Harris were briefed on the “security incident at the Trump International Golf Course,” the White House said in a statement Sunday.
“They are relieved to know that he is safe. They will be kept regularly updated by their team,” the White House added.
Republican Sen. Lindsey Graham posted to X, formerly Twitter, that he had spoken to the former president and that he was “in good spirits and he is more resolved than ever to save our country.”

It was probably nothing . Ironic that the left , and media said the right is to blame for political violence. Hmmm… im sure the facts prove otherwise, if the truth was released which im not holding my breath on
“We don’t know much about the person. No on line presents, no criminal record. Arrested his dad for being a gun owner. Not sure what his intent was and we don’t know if he was working alone…”.
It’s under investigation! And will be for the rest of our lives!
“They are relieved to know that he is safe”. No they are not!
They are the ones who want him dead!
Follow the money, oh, that’s right, it’s an ongoing investigation!
I am not suggesting that there is a connection, but the suspect’s surname, Routh, sounded very familiar. Took me a bit to place it: same as the person convicted in the murders of Chris Kyle and Chad Littlefield.
Whew It’s a good thing it wasn’t one of those black high powered AR-15 type weapons of war! With an extended banana like clip that holds thousands of magazines!
It was just an AK-47, not that that represents anything warlike!
It’s not like it’s proudly displayed on a National flag
FBI and USSS calling it an attempted killing of Pres. Trump now. Suspect is caught. Ryan Wesley Routh is his name. Big time Jew and Israel hater according to some of his blogs. I’ll bet obiden, knee pads and tampon are just crying their eyes out. No doubt, like the last time, the cocaine in the White House and all the rest we’ll never hear another thing. Except for the targeting of “assault weapons” by the lefties.
One last thing, trust me i got many more thoughts but…
Im sorry, but i dont believe a SS agent seen a few inches of a barrel sticking through a chain link fence. They didnt notice and investigate body armor plates hanging but dang it, they seen the muzzle?
The way our feds are being run and how they are afraid of trump. How can it not be an inside job? 2nd attempt so far? Unheard of.
The man arrested at Trump International Golf Club in West Palm Beach, Florida, on Sunday afternoon prolifically posted on social media about world events and politics, and had at least 100 run-ins with police, public records show.
Ryan Wesley Routh, 58, was arrested Sunday after allegedly pushing the muzzle of an AK-47 through the chainlink fence outside of where Trump was golfing. Trump was not injured during the incident, and was safely escorted away from the area, officials and the campaign reported Sunday.
Routh currently resides in Hawaii, after spending the majority of his life in North Carolina, where he worked construction, including owning a company called United Roofing, a background check conducted by Fox Digital shows.
Fox News Digital poured through the suspect’s alleged social media accounts Sunday afternoon, and found he prolifically posted about Trump, the war in Ukraine, the 2020 election and other world events.
Don’t worry. Sniffy and Cameltoe were informed and are glad Donald is safe. 
It’s a good thing it wasn’t one of those black high powered AR-15 type weapons of war! With an extended banana like clip that holds thousands of magazines!
