Former President Trump Announces Return to Pennsylvania for Rally Honoring Fallen Hero Corey Comperatore

Former President Donald Trump has announced plans to return to Butler County, Pennsylvania for a rally in honor of Corey Comperatore, the volunteer firefighter who was killed during an assassination attempt at Trump's July 13 rally. The event will also pay tribute to those injured in the shooting, including David Dutch and James Copenhaver. The exact date and location of the rally have not been announced yet.

Trump survived the assassination attempt when a gunman opened fire on him from a nearby roof during his speech at the Butler Farm Showgrounds. Corey Comperatore, who was standing near Trump's stage, shielded Trump's wife and children from harm before being fatally wounded. The shooter, identified as Thomas Matthew Crooks, was later apprehended by law enforcement.

The FBI is currently investigating the shooting as an attempted assassination of the former president. US Secret Service Director Kimberly Cheatle resigned this week amid scrutiny over security lapses related to the incident. The agency has faced criticism for its handling of Trump's protection and how the gunman was able to get so close to him.

Trump's return to Butler County comes after he honored Comperatore during his speech at the Republican National Convention in Milwaukee, where he paid tribute to the fallen hero and called for unity among Republicans. However, Trump has continued his attacks on Democratic rivals since then.

The exact details of Trump's upcoming rally are yet to be announced. Stay tuned for more information.
