Secret Service agents rushed former President Donald Trump off the stage after he fell to the ground at a rally in Butler, Pennsylvania.

Loud bangs were heard before Trump fell. Agents then helped him stand, and he had blood on his face. He was yelling back to the crowd and raised his fist. He was then taken to a vehicle and evacuated from the scene.

    While I hate what this guy represents politically, the last thing this country needs is Trump getting turned into a martyr.

      If he dies of natural causes, half the conspiracies will be that he isn’t dead or he reincarnated, and the other half will be that he was killed by Biden or trans antifa pedo activists

        I want the man rejected by the country and defeated at the ballot box, not turned into a martyr that’ll inspire another generation of MTGs, Boberts, and DeSantises.
