Former President Donald Trump plans to return to Butler, Pennsylvania, where he faced an assassination attempt in July, for a rally next month, according to three sources familiar with the campaign’s schedule.
The event is scheduled for Oct. 5 — one month before Election Day — said the sources, who requested anonymity to share information about a rally that hasn’t been publicly announced.
Trump has long teased a return to the town where he was shot in the ear during an assassination attempt on July 13. Weeks after the attempt on his life, Trump wrote in all caps on Truth Social that he would be back “for a big beautiful rally,” honoring Corey Comperatore, a former fire chief who died during the shooting and two others who were injured when a gunman opened fire from an elevated post not far from the rally site.
