Trump, who was the target of two assassination attempts last year, is said to be reeling after Kirk’s murder, and photos and videos show how Trump’s security team have beefed-up measures in the wake of Kirk’s shooting.
During an appearance at Yankee Stadium on Thursday, Trump also had to deal with booing from the crowd, reminiscent of scenes at the US Open last weekend.
@theipaperBoos were heard for President Donald Trump on Thursday as he attended a New York Yankees game to mark September 11. While some spectators were heard cheering and praising Trump as he arrived, boos were heard from others. Security was tight at Yankee Stadium for Trump’s appearance, only 24 hours after the murder of Charlie Kirk. #donaldtrump
