At the moment, there is little information available about the attempted assassination of the former president, but we are grateful that he is reportedly unharmed. Our thoughts go out to anyone who may have been injured at the Trump rally in Pennsylvania. During the rally, video footage shows Donald Trump being hit by a bullet while shots are heard in the background and Secret Service agents rush to protect him. This incident is related to the election, as it was predictable. Democrats and anti-Trumpers have been portraying the political opposition as a serious threat for years, claiming that people will die if their opposition gains power. They have labeled Trump as a fascist, dictator, and even Hitler. The shooter&#8217;s motives are still unknown, but if politically motivated, this act of violence is not surprising. This is not a situation where everyone is to blame, as it is one side acting out violently, as seen in previous incidents. With the upcoming election, the stakes are high and things are likely to get worse.
