Trump To Hold Rally In Town Of Assassination Attempt To Honor Supporters Who Were Shot

Former President Donald Trump announced on Friday that he will be returning to the town where he survived an assassination attempt earlier this month to hold a rally honoring those who were shot.

The former president was shot by 20-year-old Thomas Matthew Crooks on July 13 during a rally in Butler, Pennsylvania, as he spoke to thousands of supporters who were in attendance.

“I WILL BE GOING BACK TO BUTLER, PENNSYLVANIA, FOR A BIG AND BEAUTIFUL RALLY, HONORING THE SOUL OF OUR BELOVED FIREFIGHTING HERO, COREY, AND THOSE BRAVE PATRIOTS INJURED TWO WEEKS AGO,” Trump posted on social media. “WHAT A DAY IT WILL BE — FIGHT, FIGHT, FIGHT! STAY TUNED FOR DETAILS.”

50-year-old Corey Comperatore was killed nearly instantly after rounds that were fired at Trump hit a large group of supporters behind the stage.

David Dutch, 57, was released from the hospital this week after spending a significant amount of time in critical condition.
