The details are coming out…
Former President Trump said his youngest son, Barron, was playing tennis when he learned in July that his father had been shot at a rally in Pennsylvania.
Trump recounted the experience in a sit-down interview with Fox News’s “The Ingraham Angle” this weekend, when he returned to the site of the assassination attempt this summer. The interview will air in full Monday evening and a preview was released earlier in the day.
“Barron was playing tennis with his friends, and somebody walked over and – ran over – and said, ‘Your father’s been shot. He’s been shot,’” Trump said in the interview preview.
“Barron, and Barron really likes his father a lot,” Trump continued.
“And he came in: ‘Mom, Mom, Mom, what happened?’ So, and then they saw me get up, and then they saw the fist pump,” Trump said, referring to the viral image taken just moments after he was shot of him raising his fist in the air.
Trump returned to Butler, Pa. this weekend for the first time since the assassination attempt nearly three months ago.
Trump, on Saturday, was joined at his return rally by several high-profile guests, including his running mate, Sen. JD Vance (R-Ohio), Republican National Committee Co-Chair Lara Trump and tech billionaire Elon Musk.
