The long history of violent incidents involving Donald Trump

gunshots were fired at the white house correspondents' dinner — the latest in a long line of violent incidents involving donald trump. the event, held on april 27, saw a gunman open fire outside the washington hotel where the dinner was taking place. no one was injured, and the suspect was arrested. trump has faced threats dating back years. in 2016, a man was arrested after trying to grab a police officer's gun at a rally in reno. in 2017, a man drove a car into a group of protesters near a trump rally in new york. in 2020, a plot to kidnap michigan governor gretchen whitmer was foiled — the plotters had also discussed targeting trump. the correspondents' dinner shooting is the most recent in this pattern.
