Trump says gunman had 'violent history and possible obsession' with White House

U.S. President Donald Trump said on Sunday that the gunman who opened fire on Secret Service officers outside the White House had a "violent history and possible obsession" with the building.

"Thank you to our great Secret Service and Law Enforcement for the swift and professional action taken this evening against a gunman near the White House, who had a violent history and possible obsession with our Country's most cherished structure," he said in a post on Truth Social.
