Gunman Attempts to Assassinate Trump: Key Developments

Washington: A gunman attempted to assassinate Donald Trump at a rally in Pennsylvania on Saturday night. One man died in the shooting, and two others were injured. President Biden addressed the nation, urging the country to stand together and settle political differences "peacefully" at the ballot box.

• Biden noted that little is known about the gunman, identified as 20-year-old Thomas Matthew Crooks, following widespread online misinformation.
• FBI agents are investigating the motive behind the attack and believe the shooter acted alone.
• President Biden called Trump hours after the incident, condemning the assassination attempt as "sick."
• Political advertisements for Biden's campaign have been pulled from television in light of the attack.
• The Secret Service is under scrutiny, as the FBI finds it "surprising" a gunman was able to open fire on stage before being killed.
• Trump, who was grazed by a bullet in his ear, arrived at the Republican National Convention in Milwaukee to be formally nominated as the party's candidate.
• UK Prime Minister Keir Starmer and other world leaders have offered their condolences and best wishes for Trump's recovery.
• Donald Trump has arrived in Wisconsin for the Republican National Convention just a day after an assassination attempt. Despite the shooting at a Pennsylvania rally on Saturday evening, where Trump was shot in the ear, the Milwaukee conference is proceeding as scheduled.
• Trump shared on social media that he had considered a two-day delay but decided not to let a "shooter" or potential assassin disrupt his plans.
