Donald Trump is planning to stop holding campaign rallies outdoors in the wake of the assassination attempt against him in Pennsylvania, according to reports.
The 2024 Republican nominee’s team has said the plan going forward is to hold indoor events for safety reasons.
Trump may still appear at smaller outdoor rallies, but they will be held in venues such as stadiums where entrances can be tightly controlled, NBC reported citing unnamed sources.
Thomas Matthew Crooks opened fire and shot Trump in the ear at a rally in Butler, Pennsylvania, on July 13. The incident sparked major criticism of the Secret Service, resulting in the agency’s director Kimberly Cheatle resigning on Tuesday.
