Description:

On Sunday morning, Australian time, we woke to the news that Donald Trump was shot at a rally in Pennsylvania. 

We saw the images of him with blood streaming down his face, and shortly after, his fist raised in a seeming show of triumph. 

It’s the first time an American president, or presidential candidate, has been shot at in 43 years.

That was then-American president Ronald Reagan. He nearly died. Afterwards, commentators speculated that his grace under fire helped him solidify the support and affection of the American people. 

Today, in a special episode, North American correspondent Farrah Tomazin, on what happened in Pennsylvania. And how this might impact the presidential election.
