Has anyone attempted to assassinate Trump before?

[Anonymous]

Has anyone ever tried and been arrested for it?

[FunkyMonkee]

Johnny Dippshit and MADonna have both suggested it. Are you looking to get on the watchlist with them? He didn't take a shit in YOUR pecan pie, too, did he?

[Dargil]

About 12 attempts. Don't know about arrests.

The nut-jobs with guns are his most vocal supporters - they're hardly going to assassinate him.

[Avicenna]

No doubt someone has tried. There are a lot of deranged people out there.

Michael Steven Sandford, a British citizen, has attempted to assassinate him during a 2016 rally in Las Vegas.

Sort of:

At a June 18, 2016, rally for presumptive-nominee Donald Trump's presidential campaign in Las Vegas, Nevada, Michael Steven Sandford attempted to grab the pistol of a Las Vegas Metropolitan Police officer providing security for the event. Upon arrest and after waiving his Miranda rights, Sandford claimed that he had wished to kill Trump to prevent him from becoming president. Sandford was charged with disorderly conduct and with being an "illegal alien in possession of a firearm" for having previously rented a pistol at a shooting range. On September 13, 2016, he pleaded guilty to both charges.[3] Sandford was sentenced to 12 months and one day's imprisonment,[and was released and deported to the United Kingdom after 11 months in custody.[5]

No, but I would not be surprised if it happens between now and the 2024 election.
