Tennessee Republicans reacted to the news that a second assassination attempt on Donald Trump had been made over the weekend at his golf course:
The good news is that @realDonaldTrump is safe after today’s assassination attempt on his life.
I am thankful for the swift actions by law enforcement and am grateful that President Trump was not harmed.
Political violence has no place in our democracy.— Rep. David Kustoff (@RepDavidKustoff) September 15, 2024
This is now the second attempt against President Trump’s life. The forces of evil in this world are truly seeking his demise.
Please continue to pray for Trump’s safety.

I am praying for President Trump and our nation. Even after two assassination attempts and a relentless campaign to put him behind bars, we know that he will never stop fighting for the American people.

How many attempts can he survive? Donald J. Trump deserves the highest level of protection available.
It’s not bad agents. It’s a lack of leadership.
