The extraordinary fallout of the Trump shooting that rocked the world
Manage episode 428782707 series 2343564
On Sunday morning, Australian time, we woke to the news that Donald Trump was shot at a rally in Pennsylvania.
We saw the images of him with blood streaming down his face, and shortly after, his fist raised in a seeming show of triumph.
It’s the first time an American president, or presidential candidate, has been shot at in 43 years.
That was then-American president Ronald Reagan. He nearly died. Afterwards, commentators speculated that his grace under fire helped him solidify the support and affection of the American people.
Today, in a special episode, North American correspondent Farrah Tomazin, on what happened in Pennsylvania. And how this might impact the presidential election.
