   “I would like to thank everyone for your concern and well wishes. It was certainly an interesting day!” Trump said in a post on Truth Social.

   “Most importantly, I want to thank the US Secret Service, Sheriff Ric Bradshaw and his Office of brave and dedicated Patriots, and, all of Law Enforcement, for the incredible job done today at Trump International in keeping me, as the 45th President of the United States, and the Republican Nominee in the upcoming Presidential Election, safe. the job done was absolutely outstanding. I am very proud to be an American!”

   The former president faced another apparent assassination attempt Sunday while he was golfing in Florida.

   Authorities in Florida said on Sunday that a Secret Service agent saw a rifle barrel sticking through a fence while Trump was golfing at his course in West Palm Beach. The agent fired shots and a man dropped an AK-47-style rifle with a scope and fled in an SUV, officials added.

   Law enforcement said that authorities apprehended a man in Martin County in a vehicle that matched a witness’s description.

   NewsNation, The Hill’s sister network, reported the suspect in the apparent assassination attempt is a white male named Ryan Wesley Routh.

   “There were gunshots in my vicinity, but before rumors start spiraling out of control, I wanted you to hear this first: I am safe and well!” Trump said in a fundraising email sent Sunday.

   “Nothing will slow me down. I will never surrender! I will always love you for supporting me,” Trump continued.

   In July, Trump faced another assassination attempt at a rally in Pennsylvania.
