Armed WHCD attendee targeted Trump, Pirro says, claims to prove beyond doubt
TL;DR Summary
U.S. Attorney Jeanine Pirro told CNN that the man who attended the White House Correspondents’ Dinner with a gun appeared to intend to assassinate President Donald Trump, based on his manifesto, and said the DOJ will prove the case beyond a reasonable doubt. The alleged gunman, Cole Tomas Allen, faces multiple charges including attempting to assassinate the president. Pirro noted the manifesto did not explicitly target any other officials, and Tapper pressed that point while Pirro defended the assertion that Trump was the intended target.
