Summary

During a rally in Lititz, Pennsylvania, Donald Trump criticized the bulletproof glass surrounding him, joking that an assassin would need to “shoot through the fake news” to reach him, a remark aimed at the press positioned behind the glass.

He called the media “bloodsuckers” and mocked the glass’s size, referencing prior assassination attempts, including a July incident in Butler, Pennsylvania, where a bullet grazed him and an audience member was killed.

Trump added that his supporters serve as his “glass” for protection: “Glass here. There’s nothing over there. They’re my glass. See? Those people are my glass,” Trump said, pointing to the crowd.

    I’m support Mr Trump removing the bullet proof glass. Start allowing MORE armed MAGA to attend his ramblings. Only way to stop a bad gun owner, right? Just because one iddy biddy assassination attempt by a Republican happened?

    Come on Mr Trump! 2FA! Don’t be a wimp!

      Could’ve been two but the guy was ousted by the Secret popo at a golf club without opening fire.
