Trump returned to Butler, Pennsylvania, the site of his first assassination attempt, for another rally—and a photo of the aftermath is going viral.

Former President Donald Trump returned to Butler, Pennsylvania, the site of his first assassination attempt, for another rally—and a photo of the aftermath has gone viral for all the wrong reasons.

After the event wrapped up, Scripps News journalist Elizabeth Landers shared an image of a completely trashed field filled with water bottles, loose papers, and plastic bags. Even some dejected Trump-Vance signs lay on the field as some rally attendees walked past.

Many felt the picture spoke volumes about Trump's MAGA supporters and served as a perfect metaphor for our present political moment.


Others expressed their disgust in different ways.




Butler is the site where Trump survived an assassination attempt in July, the first of two attempts this election cycle.

With just 28 days remaining, and with early voting already underway in some states, the Trump campaign aimed to maximize the event's media impact in his race against Vice President Kamala Harris, who upended his entire campaign strategy from the moment President Joe Biden dropped out of the race and endorsed her to be his successor.

Standing behind protective glass on stage at his outdoor rally, Trump referred to the would-be assassin as "a vicious monster" and claimed the attempt failed “by the hand of providence and the grace of God.”

As expected, Trump continued to push blatant lies, including claims about the federal response to Hurricane Helene, echoing a circulating rumor that survivors are receiving only $750 from FEMA. This amount actually refers to immediate assistance FEMA can provide to affected individuals in disaster zones.

Trump's AG Sets Off A Firestorm With Claim That Americans 'Want Their Tax Dollars Spent On' Trump's $1.8 Billion Slush Fund

Acting Attorney General Todd Blanche is facing heavy criticism after claiming that Americans "want their tax dollars spent on things like" President Trump's $1.8 billion slush fund that may go to his allies and those who participated in the January 6 insurrection.

The Justice Department said last week it was creating the fund as part of a deal in which Trump agreed to drop his $10 billion lawsuit against the IRS. But despite a press release, memo, and a newly-released settlement agreement, many details about the program remain unclear.

Getting a new pet is a big commitment, and when you decide to take the plunge, you should commit to keeping them for their full lifetime.

But if you're going to get an animal that you have no prior experience with, you also have to commit to doing your research so you can care for them properly. While getting advice from a fellow pet owner is helpful, it's always good to double-check their facts.

Trump Was Just Asked If He's Attending Don Jr.'s Wedding—And His Response Is Hilariously Brutal

President Donald Trump had a hilariously brutal response after a reporter asked him if he planned to attend the wedding of his son Donald Trump Jr. in the Bahamas this weekend, saying the event is "not good timing for me."

Trump Jr.—who was previously engaged to current U.S. Ambassador to Greece Kimberly Guilfoyle—will marry Palm Beach socialite Bettina Anderson this weekend, but Trump made it pretty clear the event isn't exactly at the top of his list of priorities, pointing to the war in Iran and "other things" that are keeping him busy.
