What Caused Chemical Burns On Trump Rally-Goers?

Tucson, AZ rally leaves many with chemical burns

Several folks sitting directly behind President Trump at his rally in Tucson, Arizona on September 12 were afflicted with chemical burns. They experienced blurred vision, facial swelling, and burning in the eyes. All of the afflicted persons were sitting directly behind and to the right of the former President.

Are chemical burns a new tactic against Trump?

“NBC 4 Tucson reported that 48 people were allowed to sit on the stage behind Trump as he spoke, and it appeared that the only people who reported experiencing severe symptoms were sitting on Trump’s right. Trump’s Tucson rally took place just three days before the Secret Service fired on a gunman who appeared to be sitting in wait to take shots at the former president at his golf course in West Palm Beach, Florida.

A local pastor, Eli Moreno, and his wife, Francesca, said they were both affected by the illness. Pastor Moreno had opened the rally in prayer before he joined his wife and others who were seated on stage. Francesca said her nose started running, her face swelled, and her vision became blurry as they were driving home from the Trump rally. The couple reportedly stopped at a Walgreens store to find something to ease Francesca’s discomfort and met another person with similar symptoms who had attended the rally.

Another Trump supporter, Mayra Rodriguez — a former Planned Parenthood employee and Hillary Clinton supporter — said she went to the emergency room after experiencing burning eyes and an intense headache and couldn’t even open her eyes after making it to the hospital. A doctor evaluated Rodriguez and said she had suffered a chemical burn, the Arizona Globe reported.” Daily Wire

Emergency rooms told the approximately 20 victims that it appeared to be chemical burns – was it a deliberate attempt to create a problem for the Trump campaign?

Will this presidential election be the most important in American history?

“Local law enforcement and medical authorities are reportedly investigating the incidents, though no official cause for the symptoms has been determined at this time. Preliminary reports have not ruled out environmental factors, and there is no confirmation that the rally attendees were exposed to a harmful substance. Still, the pattern of symptoms and the specific location of the affected individuals have left many questions unanswered.

In the context of an increasingly polarized political climate, any potential threat to Trump or his supporters is likely to spark widespread concern and debate. While there is no indication yet that the event was targeted for political reasons, the possibility of a chemical attack or other nefarious activity has not been ruled out entirely.” The EconoTimes

The Secret Service claimed that there were no threats against the Trump rally, and that they didn’t know about it until a reporter told them. The Trump campaign is conducting an investigation, although whether the USSS is doing much is unknown.

SOMETHING caused 20 people to be afflicted with some type of chemical burns, so getting to the bottom of it is imperative.
