MAGA erupts as White House Correspondents' Dinner shooter's manifesto revealed: 'Hang him'

Fans of President Donald Trump's MAGA movement erupted on Sunday after the alleged White House Correspondents' Dinner shooter's manifesto was published online.

Trump, first lady Melania Trump, and several cabinet officials were swiftly whisked away from the Washington Hilton in the nation's capital after shots rang out during the annual gathering of lawmakers and members of the media. The alleged shooter, Cole Tomas Allen, exchanged fire with Secret Service personnel and was arrested on-scene.

Details of the manifesto Allen sent to his family members before the shooting were published on Sunday. In the document, Allen says he was specifically targeting Trump and other administration officials, excluding FBI Director Kash Patel. He also wrote that he is no longer "willing to permit a pedophile, rapist, and traitor to coat my hands with his crimes."

MAGA faithful shared their reactions on social media.

"Cool, hang him," podcaster Emily Austin posted on X.

"The gunman's manifesto is indistinguishable from the views promoted by the mainstream Left, the Democrats, the liberal media every single day," Batya Ungar-Sargon, host of "Batya!" on NewsNation, who describes herself as a "MAGA lefty," posted on X. "Stop saying we have a political violence problem in America. We have a Left-wing political violence problem in America."

"Meanwhile, legacy media and mainstream Democrats keep promoting people who call Trump a pedophile, a rapist and traitor," Ben Shapiro, co-founder of The Daily Wire, posted on X.

"This was always the point of their lies," podcaster Tim Pool posted on X. "They want to get Trump and conservatives killed."
