Jefferson County Public Schools sent a statement to FOX31 after screenshots were shared across the internet allegedly showing one of the district’s teachers discussing how former President Donald Trump “was almost taken out” at his rally on Saturday.
A Facebook post allegedly made by an elementary school teacher is making its rounds online. Screenshots of the post appear to show the teacher talking about Trump’s attempted assassination and allegedly agreeing with a commenter who was upset “they missed.”
