Democrat House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries After Second Trump Assassination Attempt: ‘We Must Stop’ MAGA Republicans
SUMMARY
House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries took to X following the second assassination attempt on former President Donald Trump, where he called out “extreme MAGA Republicans.” In his post, Jeffries stated; “Extreme MAGA Republicans are the party of a national abortion ban and Trump’s Project 2025. We must stop them.” His remarks came shortly after news broke that Trump was safe following gunshots at his West Palm Beach golf course. The FBI has launched an investigation into the incident, which occurred as Trump was golfing at Trump National Golf Club. Donald Trump Jr. later confirmed that an AK-47 was found in the bushes and a suspect had been apprehended. This follows a previous assassination attempt in July, when Trump was shot at during a Pennsylvania rally, narrowly avoiding injury.
