Former president Donald Trump plans to continue holding outdoor rallies despite an assassination attempt two weeks ago. He claims the Secret Service will increase security to protect him, following criticism of their handling during the incident. Trump emphasized the importance of free speech and assembling peacefully in a recent post on Truth Social.
The Secret Service, while not confirming additional security measures, is said to be increasing protection for Trump’s rallies, including the possibility of moving them indoors. Despite this, Trump reiterated his intention to hold outdoor events to honor those affected by the recent tragedy.
Following the shooting incident at a rally in Butler, Pennsylvania, Trump sustained injuries confirmed by the FBI to have been caused by a bullet. While Trump has not released medical records, a former White House physician treated him for a wound on his ear. As the investigation into the shooting continues, the Secret Service remains focused on ensuring the safety of all protectees.
