President Trump has addressed the media to discuss details about the shooting at the White House Correspondents’ Dinner Saturday evening.

He said the suspect was a “very sick” person armed with multiple weapons and taken down by “brave” Secret Service members. He also confirmed one officer was shot from a “very close” distance with a “very powerful” gun, but was saved by his bullet proof vest.

Trump shared a video of the shooting as well as a photo of the assailant being apprehended by police on Truth Social, which can be seen below.

47 noted this is not the first time Republicans were attacked by a would-be assassin who was out for blood in the last few years … and asked all Americans to resolve their differences peacefully. He noted there was a “tremendous amount of love and coming together” at the White House Correspondent’s Dinner.

Trump took questions near the end of his livestream from the White House and said he at first thought the shots he heard were a train, but conceded that his wife Melania Trump new what had happened immediately.

He answered a question about why people hope to take his life — and he said while he doesn’t want to say he feels “honored” by having his life threatened … he knows people don’t go after those who sit around and do nothing. He added that America is a strong country that is no longer the “laughing stock” of the world.

Trump told press he believes the suspect was acting alone, and said we will have more questions answered tomorrow. Trump invited Acting United States Attorney General Todd Blanche to speak, and he confirmed charges will be filed and justice will be served. He also said search warrants were being obtained as he spoke.
