Trump Assassination Bid: Kimberly Cheatle, U.S Security Service Chief Under Fire Over the Shooting

Former US President Donald Trump was attacked in Pennsylvania on Saturday. Donald Trump was addressing a rally here, when a shooter fired bullets from the roof of a building far away. A bullet grazed Donald Trump. Trump immediately bent down and sat down and at the same time the Secret Service agents engaged in his security surrounded him. In a few moments, when Trump was lifted by the Secret Service agent, he waved his fist in the air. Blood was visible on his face. The news of the attack on Trump spread rapidly all over the world but after this a debate has started in America. Questions are being raised about Trump's security that a deadly attack happened on the President in the presence of the former Secret Service, in which he was grazed by a bullet.
