Trump
Rushed Off Stage In Nevada By Secret Service
Zero Hedge

November, 2015
Details
surrounding the event are few - according to initial unconfirmed
reports, a person in the crowd allegedly pulled a gun - but shortly
after appearing on stage at a Nevada rally, Donald Trump was rushed
off stage by Secret Service agents.
While
many have donned their tin foil hats over the past few months, the
big question everyone is asking is - will the establishment use the
ultimate tool to stop Trump winning the election? Initial unconfirmed
reports suggest that a man in the crowd pulled a gun:
Massive disruption here in Reno. Armed officers jumped in. People on the floor said — & this is unconfirmed — that they saw a man pull a gun
According
to The Hill, the Republican presidential nominee noticed a protestor
in the crowd and told event security to remove him. But as Trump
looked out over the crowd to spot the protestor, two men in suits ran
to the stage, grabbed him by the shoulders, and rushed him behind the
curtain.
A
group of security officials jumped over the barricade, protecting the
stage and looking into the crowd, backing up shocked attendees who
tried to take video of the protestor.
Security
led a bald man out of the convention hall as the crowd cheered and
also booed the protestor.
Trump is back on stage. Looks cool as a cucumber. Crowd goes wild.
And
moments later:
Trump
returned to the stage moments later to continue his speech. "Nobody
said it was going to be easy for us, but we will never be stopped.
Never ever be stopped," Trump said. "I want to thank the
Secret Service. These guys are fantastic – they don't get enough
credit," he said.:
Trump returns: "Nobody said it was going to be easy for us. But we will never be stopped. Never, ever be stopped."
A
few minutes later, the businessman paused to thank his supporters for
helping to protect him as the man rushed the stage.
"I
want to thank all these people," he said, pointing to the area
where the man was stopped.
"I
saw what you were doing – that's a tough group of people right
there. I saw that, that was pretty amazing. Nobody messes with our
people," he said.

Service's response.

Trump's
campaign released a brief statement that echoed the candidate's
appreciation for Secret Service, but did not provide any additional
information as to what had occurred. The tense situation came during
a slew of Trump rallies three days before the election, as the
businessman and his Democratic rival Hillary Clinton criss-cross the
country before Election Day.
