The presidential campaign is moving forward after a second apparent attempt on Donald Trump ’s life over the weekend. Trump was heading to Michigan on Tuesday for a town hall while Vice President Kamala Harris answered questions at a forum for Black journalists in Pennsylvania.

Meanwhile, authorities are investigating the apparent assassination attempt in Florida. Trump was safe after the incident in Florida and praised the Secret Service for protecting him but didn't shy away from blaming his opponents. The Republican nominee claimed without evidence that President Joe Biden and Vice President Kamala Harris ' comment that he is a threat to democracy had inspired the attempt on Sunday.

The man suspected in the incident, Ryan Wesley Routh, camped outside the golf course in West Palm Beach with food and a rifle for nearly 12 hours, according to court documents filed Monday. Additional and more serious charges are possible as the investigation continues and prosecutors seek an indictment from a grand jury.
