TechFlow News: On April 26, during a press conference held locally on April 25, U.S. President Trump responded to journalists’ questions regarding the unexpected incident that occurred at the White House Correspondents’ Association Dinner the previous day, calling it “absolutely shocking.” He said he heard a loud noise but initially assumed it was a tray dropping onto the floor. “I was observing the situation at the time,” he added, though his wife reacted more quickly, seemingly realizing immediately what had happened.
Trump stated he hoped the dinner would proceed as planned and pledged to reschedule it as soon as possible. He noted he had received no briefings about any threats prior to the event. Trump also referenced previous assassination attempts against him and urged Americans to “bridge their differences.” He pointed out that officials from both major political parties condemned the incident that evening. Additionally, Trump expressed gratitude to members of the media, praising them for having “reported responsibly” on the event. (CCTV International News)
