Trump faced yet another threat to his life when a man presenting fake VIP credentials was taken into custody after a shotgun, high capacity magazine and loaded handgun was found in his vehicle.

Donald Trump seems to have faced yet another threat to his life when a man presenting fake VIP credentials was taken into custody after a shotgun, high capacity magazine and loaded handgun was found in his vehicle at a rally over the weekend.

There's nothing wrong with weapons for self-protection and if a person is legally carrying ..... However, the attempt to get into the VIP area makes this seem more credible.

Incident happened yesterday (Saturday).

More from article below:

They allegedly found the driver in possession of a shotgun, a loaded handgun and a high-capacity magazine. The driver was identified as Vem Miller, and was taken into custody and later booked at the John J. Benoit Detention Center on suspicion of possessing a loaded firearm and possessing a high-capacity magazine.

Miller was released Saturday on $5,000 bail, and was scheduled to appear at the Indio Larson Justice Center on Jan. 2, 2025, according to the Riverside County Sheriff's Department inmate database.

If he had a totally innocent reason for the firearms (eg., going to transport them to his hunting cabin, target practice, ect.,) it was a completely ill-thought out idea to be going to the rally and trying to gain access to the VIP area.

Miller insisted “he supports Trump and only had the guns for protection.”

Southern California News Group says of Miller:
- he’s a registered Republican
- he told them he’s an artist, and would never cause violence or harm to anyone
= Miller says he was invited to the rally by the head of Clark County's Republican Party

A case of simple yet massive stupidity and nothing more ?
I like to think that b/c LE allowed him to post bail they do not believe this was a serious assassination attempt.
Would like to know more about the alleged attempt to get into the VIP area, though ?

1. Suspect had a homemade license plate
2. Suspect had multiple passports
3. Suspect had multiple drivers licenses with multiple names
4. Suspect driving an unregistered vehicle
5. Suspect had a loaded firearm
6. Suspect had a High capacity magazine
7. Suspect had fake VIP credential

(MOO: Seeing this I'm shocked by the quick release with just $5K bail - this appears to be more premeditated and purposefully illicit)

The article states he follows the principles of the “sovereign citizen” movement, so it would be typical for him not to pay for or own any government documents.

What's a sovereign citizen? Trump rally gun suspect shows radical signs, sheriff says

Suspect Vem Miller, who's charged with carrying a loaded shotgun and pistol to a Trump rally, may be linked to the radical antigovernment movement.

I'm getting the feeling that the media thinks this was a false alarm ?
A nothing burger, if you will.

I think it's too soon to say, either way !
He was allowed to bond out so ....
Guess we'll see.
