On April 27, President Donald Trump said down with Nora O'Donnell on 60 minutes Sunday night, breaking down the chaos at the White House, correspondence, association dinner. Shots rang out Saturday at the Washington Hilton, but the gunman never made it into the basement ballroom where Trump was chilling. He stayed calm, even tone, admitting he wasn't too spooked as everything went down. Trump owned up to his curiosity slowing things for the Secret Service. He wanted to peep what was happening instead of bolting right away, telling agents to hold up while surrounded by his crew. They finally got him and first Lady Melania on the floor, and hustled everyone to safety after the gunfire. Law enforcement traded shots with suspect Cole to Moss Allen, a 31-year-old from Torrance, California, then tackled and arrested him. He was packing knives, a shotgun, and a handgun. Acting US Attorney General Todd Blanche says, early signs point to political motives, targeting Trump admin folks. The interview heated up when O'Donnell read from Allen's 1100-word manifesto on air, slamming

Trump with wild labels like rapist and pedophile. Trump fired back hard, calling her in the press horrible, a disgrace for airing it, but pushed through, blaming protests like no kings for fueling. Nuts like this guy. Trump ripped the media as soft on crime, but still wants the dinner rescheduled in the next 30 days. No way a lone crazy cancels tradition. He's too busy anyway, but standing firm keeps the spotlight on strength over fear.
