Anyone at all that says this came as a surprise has not been paying attention to politics in the US for the last 50 years.

I’m surprised how the crowd didn’t start scattering

[bobbyjurgens]

"Apparent" shots fired? And all the headlines are saying "possible" assassination attempt? They can't even call it what it is!?

[CathoLique-xy]

The least surprising thing in this campaign.

Gunman was seen prior climbing the roof was pointed out by bystanders to the police and no one did anything.

So to everyone in the comment section that thinks this was staged thank you for showing the world you are not bright

[kriskabin]

What's the problem republicons, this & more happens in American schools all the time. Your policies coming home to roost. Thoughts & prayers.

[RogueJunior-wpmb]

That lady screaming you hear I believe was a family member of the person that was shot in head

[jacpolpoliticos]

Y r they afraid, i thought republicans like guns.?

[bomzegardengaming]

I can’t believe how far gone our country is, somebody died send some prayers instead of hatred.

[tanyaparnell]

Wouldn’t want to be sitting behind him 😳

Man, if only there were some school children, concert attendees, mall goer's or grocery store shoppers that could relate to the kind of fear and trauma this kind of event could instill. Good thing we decided as a society that the right to exist without being shot in a 'safe' place is more important than a right to own guns, a 'right' granted by people that didn't know what germs were and thought women too mentally frail to vote.

This is just sick. People need to put politics aside for a second and act human.

[tacomamusic]

he was not rushed off the stage. secret service did a terrible job. dont care if trump gets it but the other people who got shot and died didnt deserve it.

[SargentD]

Secret service snipers were watching the guy the whole time and didn’t shoots. Lots of videos on it.

[lesawilkes]

"Apparent" One poor man took a bullet to the head and fell dead, a woman was shot in the wrist, Donald got a bloody ear, and the sniper was killed. Yep, apparently, shots were C'mon!

[brianmoore]

How did it take this long for this to happen?

[nickr_]

I want to see other angles, people over his left shoulder were filming

[robertpascale]

Really can't believe he lasted this long without someone trying that

[RC-qfmp]

What does it mean when people “like” this video? 🤔
