Trump sustained a gunshot wound to his right ear. The gunman, who was on a rooftop near the protest location, was promptly neutralized by the Secret Service. The shooter’s motivation remains unknown. The FBI has requested help from the U.S. Attorney’s Office and is cooperating with the Secret Service to investigate the situation.

Donald Trump challenged President Joe Biden

Donald Trump had challenged President Joe Biden to an 18-hole golf competition at his Doral golf facility in Florida. Trump stated that the match would be “among the most-watched sporting events in history” and offered to contribute $1 million to a charity of Biden’s choosing if he won.

However, the Biden campaign promptly rejected Trump’s offer, with a spokeswoman adding,

Joe Biden doesn't have time for Donald Trump's weird antics - he's busy leading America and defending the free world.

This is the latest episode in an ongoing spat between the two political rivals over their golf skills. During a recent presidential debate, Trump criticized Biden’s golf ability, claiming Biden “can’t hit a ball 50 yards.” Biden responded by proposing to have a “driving contest” with Trump.

Earl Cooper, Biden’s former golf coach, believes Biden could defeat Trump in a match, pointing out that Biden formerly had a single-digit handicap and was “shooting in the 70s.” However, Cooper did admit that Biden is “slowing down” compared to his prime golfing days.
