**Former President Donald Trump has claimed that President Joe Biden contacted him following a second assassination attempt on his life.**
Speaking at an online event launching a crypto platform controlled by his sons, Trump said Biden had called to check on his well-being. He also revealed that Biden had asked for his input on whether more Secret Service agents were needed on his security detail.
Trump described the latest incident, which occurred at his golf club in West Palm Beach, Florida, as a “much better result” than a previous attempt in July, stating that no bystanders were injured.
The suspect, Ryan Wesley Routh, was apprehended and charged with federal gun crimes. Further charges are pending as the investigation continues.
This incident comes just nine weeks after Trump survived another alleged assassination attempt. The Secret Service responded quickly to Sunday’s incident, opening fire on the suspect after he was seen near the golfing green with a firearm.
This latest incident has raised concerns about the safety of both former and current presidents, prompting questions about security measures and the increasing threats faced by public figures.
