President Donald Trump gave an eyebrow-raising explanation as to why his second-in-command was evacuated more quickly than himself after shots rang out at Saturday night’s White House Correspondents’ Dinner.
Speaking with CBS News’s Norah O’Donnell on 60 Minutes on Sunday, Trump, 79, gave a play-by-play on why he was evacuated after Vice President JD Vance.
“You see the security moving quickly, within seconds, grabbing the vice president by his coat, lifting him up, bringing him out,” O’Donnell said to the president. “Then, the counterassault comes in, took 10 seconds for them to flank you, Mr. President, and then 20 seconds to get you out. It looked chaotic. At one point, you were down. What was happening?”
