Pennsylvania Campaign: The True Story of Donald Trump's Near Assassination and His Heartland-Fueled Victory Inspired by Salena Zito

On July 13, 2024, a single bullet changed the course of American history.

In the searing summer heat of Butler, Pennsylvania, as Donald Trump addressed thousands of supporters, shots rang out. In the chaos that followed, one man was killed, two were wounded, and the former president escaped assassination by a mere quarter-inch-the difference between a grazed ear and a fatal head wound.

In those terrifying seconds, America's political landscape was forever altered.

Pennsylvania Campaign delivers the definitive account of the Butler assassination attempt and its profound impact on the 2024 election. With unprecedented access to key figures, forensic evidence, and exclusive interviews, this riveting narrative reconstructs not just what happened on that fateful day, but why it happened and how it reshaped American democracy.

From the security failures that allowed a 20-year-old with an AR-15 to nearly assassinate a presidential candidate to the enigmatic motivations of shooter Thomas Matthew Crooks, this book reveals the cascade of events that nearly plunged America into constitutional crisis. It follows the FBI's exhaustive investigation, the Secret Service's internal reckoning, and the desperate attempts of political operatives to adapt to a campaign unlike any in modern memory.

At its heart, this is a human story-of Corey Comperatore, who died shielding his family from gunfire meant for a president; of survivors forever marked by trauma; of a small Pennsylvania community thrust into the global spotlight; and of a nation forced to confront its deep divisions through the lens of a shared national trauma.

With the pulse-pounding tension of a political thriller and the rigorous detail of first-rate journalism, Pennsylvania Campaign examines a moment when America stood at the precipice-when a quarter-inch and a split-second meant the difference between an assassination that would have changed everything and a near-miss that changed everything anyway.

In a polarized era where Americans rarely agree on the meaning of events they witness together, this book offers something essential: a meticulously researched, balanced account of a pivotal historical moment whose full significance we are only beginning to understand.

Pennsylvania Campaign is not just the story of a bullet that missed its mark but hit American democracy-it's an urgent exploration of political violence, media transformation, and the fragile nature of the institutions we too often take for granted.
