The White House released a statement saying both the President and Vice President were “relieved to know that he is safe.”
“The President and Vice President have been briefed about the security incident at the Trump International Golf Course, where former President Trump was golfing. They are relieved to know that he is safe. They will be kept regularly updated by their team,” the White House said in a statement.
In a statement on X, Harris condemned the incident stating she is glad that he is safe and that “violence has no place in America.”
On Sunday, police detained a suspect in Martin County and discovered an AK-47 style rifle with a scope, two backpacks, and a GoPro “which he was going to take pictures with” by the fence of Trump’s golf course.
The Trump campaign later issued a statement announcing that he was safe and unharmed.
