    Donald Trump was bundled off stage by Secret Service at a rally in Pennsylvania on Saturday after being shot in an assassination attempt.

    The former president raised his fist as he was hoisted from the stage in Butler by his security detail, and piled into a waiting motorcade.

    The former president, 78, survived the assassination attempt and was treated for his injuries at a hospital. He later thanked God for preventing the “unthinkable from happening.”
