Trump, seated next to first lady Melania Trump, was quickly surrounded by Secret Service agents, while many attendees ducked under their tables.

President Donald Trump was evacuated from the White House Correspondents’ Dinner after multiple gunshots were heard in the ballroom.

One officer was shot, but he was “saved by the fact that he was wearing obviously a very good bulletproof vest,” Trump later told reporters at the White House.

The suspected shooter was identified later Saturday as Cole Allen of Torrance, California, a former senior law enforcement official briefed on the matter told MS NOW.

I’m betting this was all staged. Either that or Iran is trying to get him.

*Edit: Alternative Idea – what if this was one of his cultists who came to kill off the “fake news” media?

      I hope not. I liked the last guys being MAGAs, but now I want it to start being the people he’s hurting. I want to see the Free Market respond the way it did with execution of the Health Care CEO.

      When you push people hard enough, they will eventually push back. I want these treasonous pedophiles to get so terrorized that they are afraid to go out in public. All that money, and it can’t even buy you peace of mind.
