Watch: Biden Reacts to Latest Apparent Assassination Attempt on Trump

President Joe Biden is reacting to the apparent second assassination attempt on former President Donald Trump.

Speaking to reporters on Monday, “Thank God, the president’s OK.”

“One thing I want to make clear, [is] the service needs more help, and I think the Congress should respond to their needs,” he added.

When asked what kind of help he thinks the Secret Service needs, Biden said they “may” need more personnel.

Watch the video below:

On Sunday, Trump was at his golf club in West Palm Beach, Florida, when Secret Secret Service agents a few holes ahead of the former president on the course saw the muzzle of an AK-47-style rifle sticking through the pushes and opened fire.

The Associated Press notes the gunman dropped his gun and fled but was later arrested and identified as Ryan Routh. 

Law enforcement officials said they found two backpacks, a scope, and a GoPro camera in the spot where Routh was allegedly hiding.

The alleged would-be assassin reportedly was a strong supporter of Ukraine, previously stating he was willing to fight and die for the country. 

Trump was reported to be safe after the incident.

Sunday’s apparent assassination attempt was the second attempt on Trump’s life in nine weeks.

Amid questions about the apparent security lapses that transpired before the first assassination attempt, Sunday’s incident has led to questions about how a would-be assassin was able to get so close to the former president.

Palm Beach County Sheriff Ric Bradshaw pointed out that despite the first attempt on the former president’s life, the security protocols were not as beefed up as they would be if he was the president.

“He’s not the sitting president. If he was, we would have had this entire golf course surrounded. But because he’s not, his security is limited to the areas that the Secret Service deems possible,” Bradshaw told reporters.
