I cant believe this is the second time. This is the United States, we dont do this to each other, Kevin Eull said.Other voters echoed the sentiment and the concern.It wont change my vote, but its concerning as an American citizen. We have a free country and whether you agree or disagree isnt a reason to shoot somebody, Karen and Don Schuh said.The Republican Party of Wisconsin condemned the political violence in this statement:We are relieved that President Trump is safe and unharmed after this terrifying incident at the Trump International Golf Course. Many thanks are owed to the United States Secret Service and local law enforcement for their swift and courageous response to the situation.

It is the responsibility of Republicans and Democrats alike to stand together against those who would perpetrate acts of violence against our fellow citizens. WisGOP Chairman Brian Schimming.Democrats also weighed in, like State Representative Gwen Moore, who condemed the "assassination attempt" in a message via X.With just 50 days until the election, some people in Wisconsin said theyre worried about what is still to come.People are angry with the economy and inflation and it's like youre playing with lives too.
