        Huh.

        If I ever heard about that, I don’t remember it. It really seems so mild in comparison to everything else.

        Also, he didn’t shoot at Trump, so it is different.

        But it’s true there hasn’t been another credible attempt on a US president like this since Reagan.

      That doesn’t quite have the same level of drama as a sniper on the rooftop though.
