BONUS: What the Trump assassination attempt could mean for our elections

On Saturday, former President Donald Trump was shot at during his
campaign stop in Butler, Pennsylvania. Three people were injured
including the presidential nominee, who suffered an injury to his
ear as a bullet skimmed the side of his head. One man died while
shielding his family from the gunshots.  The assassination
attempt is still under investigation, but the gunman has been
identified as Thomas Matthew Crooks, a 20-year-old from Bethel
Park, Pennsylvania, just outside of Pittsburgh. Meanwhile, the
Republican National Convention starts today in Milwaukee,
Wisconsin. Along with his newly announced running mate J.D. Vance,
the Senator from Ohio, delegates voted today that Trump will lead
the GOP on the 2024 Presidential ballot. On this bonus episode of
The Gaggle, a politics podcast by The Arizona Republic and
azcentral.com, hosts Ron Hansen and Mary Jo Pitzl are joined by
political consultants from both sides of the aisle to examine the
potential political fallout from the shooting at Trump’s rally, and
how it could affect the November general election. Joining the show
are Constantin Querard, a GOP political consultant and the founder
and president of Grassroots Partners, a consulting and public
affairs firm, and Alfredo Gutierrez, former state senator and a
longtime force in Arizona Democratic politics.  Learn more
