Many are still trying to wrap their minds around this terrifying incident, expressing shock and disgust while others say that that the failed assassination attempt will produce an outpouring of affection for Trump that will electrify the convention this week.

"I'm sad, I'm sick I'm disgusted, am I shocked? No. Did I think this is something that could happen? Oh yeah," said Angie Prowell, a Trump supporter from Kentucky visiting the convention.

"He's going to another level and so are we," said Michelle Altherr, an Arizona delegate.
