House Speaker Mike Johnson (R-LA) revealed a photo of himself standing with Donald Trump smiling and giving a thumbs up after the former president survived an apparent assassination attempt at his golf club in Florida on Sunday.
In a post to X, Johnson said he and his wife Kelly were just departing Trump’s nearby Mar-a-Lago resort, “where we just spent a few hours with President Trump and are thanking God for protecting him today — once again.”
Johnson added, in addition to sharing photos of them standing with Trump and a sunset peeking through the clouds, “No leader in American history has endured more attacks and remained so strong and resilient. He is unstoppable.”
Trump’s campaign announced Sunday afternoon that Trump was “safe following gunshots in his vicinity.” The FBI later said it was responding to West Palm Beach to investigate “what appears to be an attempted assassination” of Trump.
Secret Service personnel opened fire on a man who poked a rifle muzzle through a fence around Trump’s West Palm Beach golf club where he was hitting the links, officials said, after which the suspect fled and was later detained by police.
CNN reported that the former president left the Trump International Golf Club with his motorcade after the Secret Service warded off the suspect and he returned to his Mar-a-Lago estate, which is located in Palm Beach, Florida.
