John Hinckley Jr., who attempted to assassinate President Ronald Reagan in 1981 to impress actress Jodie Foster, condemned Trump’s attempted assassination in a post on X on Wednesday.
“Violence is not the way to go. Give peace a chance,” Hinckley wrote in the post.
Hinckley fired six shots at Reagan outside a Hilton Hotel in Washington, D.C. on March 30, 1981. Only one of the bullets hit Reagan after ricocheting off the limousine he was climbing into for cover.
