I am still in shock. When I first learned that Donald Trump had been shot, I literally had difficulty processing the information. I watched footage of the shooting over and over, and honestly I am still trying to put the pieces together. The Secret Service is supposed to be far better at protecting our leaders than this.

He was killed by one of the bullets that the shooter fired. Trump was hit in the ear, but we are being told that he is doing just fine. But how long will it be before someone else tries again?
What we just witnessed is truly, truly horrible. No matter how you plan to vote, we should all be united in denouncing political violence.
For years, many of our political leaders and many in the mainstream media have been using extremely inflammatory language to denounce Donald Trump, and this has caused emotions to run extremely high.
