What Trump says to Secret Service moments after being shot: 'Let me get my shoes'

“I was shot with a bullet that pierced the upper part of my right ear,” he wrote on Truth Social, his online platform.

“I knew immediately that something was wrong in that I heard a whizzing sound, shots, and immediately felt the bullet ripping through the skin.

“Much bleeding took place, so I realised then what was happening. GOD BLESS AMERICA!”

As he was ushered away, he said: “Fight! Fight!”

Donald Trump has described how a “bullet ripped through his skin” at a rally in Pennsylvania on Saturday night, after a gunman fired a volley of bullets at him from a nearby roof.

The Republican nominee, 78, dropped to the ground amid the sound of shots and screaming a few minutes into his address to thousands of supporters.

[PenelopePitstop-ii]

Let me get my shoes? Its like he was expecting it.

[carolnelson]

I am sorry but something is not right here. These people are not scattering. They are just standing and looking around.

[folasadejubaadeoye]

I dont understand, neither can fathom Trump looking for shoes in the midst of this.

Life is Temporary but Shoes are Permanant

[ellenschomer]

He had to get his photo ops in. MUCH more important than the people who were trying to protect him. Just another case of trump being only for

[carzyscenctist]

There needs to be an inquiry on the secret service, what was that anyway.

[arondebreceni]

Everything will come out - except the truth.

That one guy in the yellow shirt behind the stage & the guy casually texting on his phone next to him couldnt have been less bothered by any of this...

[steviechapman]

That lady looked well out of her depth, Christ.

Cheering "USA.USA. USA" after witnessing an assassination attempt....? wtf

[ceniu]

This race is over. He has this presidency now.

[brutonstreettailor]

The biggest mystery in all of this is how did Trumps shoes come off? I thought they would of been held on by his bone spurs ?

[FN_FN]

This in just unbelievable. Either secret service involved or they couldn’t manage to protect him. Both scenarios are literally unexplainable. How the hell they allowed this happen. I don’t think we will ever learn to truth but a huge shame for USA. condolences to the person passed away.

The Secret Service chick walking down the stairs with Trump’s hat… a gem for the future

[gran]

So many smug people with sarcastic or belittling opinions about how people reacted to a horrific situation. People sitting safely behind their computers giving their spiteful critique of how Trump and the crowd behaved under deadly conditions.

[MuhammadMuhammad-yzje]

Just like Hollywood movies but with bad directions

[SB-xupi]

Those shoes are now one of America’s most valuable historical artifacts

Trump 6 feet four inches. Secret service lady 5 feet four inches. Target acquired.
