Add ToI as a Preferred Source on GoogleFox News host Sean Hannity, a close friend of Donald Trump, says on air that he spoke with both the former US president and the latter’s golf partner, Steve Witkoff, after the incident.
They told Hannity that they had been on the fifth hole and were about to go up to putt when they heard a “pop pop, pop pop.” Within seconds, he says Witkoff recounted, Secret Service agents “pounced on” Trump and “covered him” to protect him.
In the aftermath, Trump checked in with allies, including his vice presidential nominee, JD Vance, South Carolina Sen. Lindsey Graham and several Fox News hosts.
