Trump almost died during speech

Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump had a close call when security guards shielded him and dragged him inside because a gunman was standing right in front of him.

According to The Guardian, the incident occurred during Mr. Trump's campaign rally in Reno, Nevada on the evening of November 5 (this morning, November 6, Vietnam time).

While speaking on the podium, the Republican candidate suddenly stopped and frowned, using his hand to cover his forehead to see something below. But before he realized it, two security guards immediately "rushed" onto the stage and "dragged" Mr. Trump backstage.

The crowd below began to panic at the rapid turn of events. Someone even shouted, "That guy has a gun," adding to the chaos.

The Secret Service also quickly caught a suspicious person. It is worth noting that this suspicious person was standing right in front of Mr. Trump's podium at a very close distance.

Minutes later, a white man was seen being escorted outside by police, his hands in handcuffs.

After the situation had stabilized, the New York billionaire returned to the stage and declared: "No one said it would be easy, but we will never stop. We will never be stopped."

Mr. Trump then thanked the security personnel for acting so quickly and professionally and continued his unfinished speech.

This is the second time the Republican candidate has been escorted off the stage during a speech. Last March, while campaigning in Ohio, Mr. Trump was forced to leave the stage when a man rushed in and shouted that he wanted to “take care of the braggart and bully.”
