U.S. President Donald Trump described the presidency as a 'dangerous profession' following a shooting incident during a dinner event in Washington on Saturday. Speaking at a press conference afterward, Trump said he could not imagine any job more dangerous than being president. The incident marked the third shooting or attempted shooting near Trump in recent years.

Trump stated that despite the risks associated with his position, he continues to live a relatively normal life. He emphasized that he is not mentally distressed or fearful, claiming he remains calm even in extreme danger. When asked how the shooting at the White House correspondents’ dinner affected him, Trump said he prefers not to dwell on it and believes he handles such situations as well as possible.

The remarks came amid heightened security concerns following repeated incidents involving gunfire near the president, though Trump sought to project composure and resilience in his response.
