Many are audibly praying for the wellbeing of former President Trump following the shocking occurrences of the day. High-ranking officials were quick to condemn the violent act and offer their prayers for those impacted.
“The egregious act committed at the rally for President Trump today is nothing short of deplorable,” expressed one concerned representative. “Political violence has no place in the United States, the greatest country on Earth. We are thankful for the rapid action of the Secret Service and other law enforcement officers. We ask everyone to join us in praying for the safety of President Trump and everyone else who attended today’s rally.”
Following the incident, checks have been intensified at several political convention sites. Some campaign offices were temporarily shut down as steps were taken to gather more detailed information about the unfortunate happening in Pennsylvania.
