Trump Assassination Foiled Moments Before Attack: Teenage Immigrant Taken Into Custody


Donald Trump narrowly escaped assassination this week, when a British immigrant named Michael Stanford’s plan to shoot the presidential hopeful was foiled by police.

Authorities said Sandford went to a Trump rally on Saturday at the Treasure Island Casino and approached a Las Vegas police officer to say he wanted an autograph from Trump.

The court document says that Sandford was arrested after grabbing the handle of an officer’s gun in an attempt to remove it.

When Sanford was asked by a Special Agent why he attempted to grab the officer’s gun, he replied “to shoot and kill Trump.”

If he failed, Sanford stated he booked tickets for a Trump rally in Phoenix and would try to kill Trump there. He added that he had been planning to attempt to kill Trump for about a year, but decided he would act on this occasion because he finally felt confident about trying it.

The 19-year-old said in the court documents released Monday that if he were on the street tomorrow, he would try this[killing Trump] again.

While disgusting, this news is hardly surprising. Trump’s assassination has been called for by many. Rick Rosswannabe rappers, and even young children have advocated for the billionaire businessman’s death online and across national television. It was bound to happen and is bound to happen again. Hopefully, our men and women in blue will continue to fight back against the murder that has been hoped for by so many.
