The phrase “HOW DO YOU MISS” trended online in the United States on X (formerly Twitter) after former President Donald Trump survived an apparent assassination attempt Saturday at a rally in Pennsylvania.

Trump was speaking at the rally when a shot was heard, followed by several others. Trump put his hand to his right ear, then ducked, before Secret Service agents swarmed him and several shots rang out amid screams in the crowd.

The Secret Service agents then stood up with Trump, and he raised his fist as they evacuated him to a waiting vehicle. The shooter was apparently neutralized, as a shout was heard of “shooter down” during the live video of the event.

Online, anti-Trump trolls mourned the fact that whoever shot at Trump appeared to have missed. Some examples:

 

None of the accounts that repeated the phrase were verified. Many appeared to have pro-Palestinian symbols in their avatars, or other radical symbols or wording. Elon Musk, who owns X, posted: “I fully endorse President Trump and hope for his rapid recovery.”
