The White House released a statement saying both the president and vice president were “relieved to know he is safe.”
“The President and Vice President were briefed on the security incident at Trump International Golf Course, where former President Trump was playing golf. They are relieved to learn that former President Trump is safe. Their teams will provide regular updates,” the White House said in a statement.
In a statement about X, Harris condemned the incident, expressed joy that he was safe and said “violence has no place in America.”
On Sunday, police detained a suspect in Martin County and found an AK-47-style rifle with a scope, two backpacks and a GoPro “that was intended to take pictures” near a fence at Trump's golf course.
The Trump campaign later released a statement saying that Trump was safe and unharmed.
