President Trump issued a statement on Truth Social late Sunday night following the shooting at his golf club in West Palm Beach, Florida.
“I would like to thank everyone for your concern and well wishes – It was certainly an interesting day! Most importantly, I want to thank the U.S. Secret Service, Sheriff Ric Bradshaw and his Office of brave and dedicated Patriots, and, all of Law Enforcement, for the incredible job done today at Trump International in keeping me, as the 45th President of the United States, and the Republican Nominee in the upcoming Presidential Election, SAFE,” Trump said.
“THE JOB DONE WAS ABSOLUTELY OUTSTANDING. I AM VERY PROUD TO BE AN AMERICAN!” he added.

From The Post Millennial:
Shots rang out on Sunday afternoon while Trump was playing a round. It was reported that Secret Service agents fired on a man they believed had a gun. Trump was not harmed and was led off the course. This comes after an assassination attempt on his life in Butler, PA on July 13. One man was killed in addition to the suspect and two others were hospitalized.
Officers said during a press conference after the suspect was apprehended that the man had been in the “bushes” and that “an AK-47 style rifle with a scope, two backpacks which were hung on the fence that had ceramic tile in them, and a GoPro” had been found in the bushes.” He was about 300-500 feet away from Trump.
Secret Service agents shot at the man but he fled. The local highway was shut down and he was stopped by officers and taken into custody. The FBI is investigating the incident as an assassination attempt.
