So just explain to me how he was, what he was saying, the message that you took away from that press conference.

So, Missy, let's have a bit more of a look at the suspect and what we do know about him.

He is 31-year-old Cole Thomas Allen from California.

Of course, he's now in police custody.

Now, President Trump, he was interviewed on Fox News later, revealing that the suspect had written a manifesto.

He hates Christians, a hatred... So what do we know about that at this stage?

And Donald Trump, he was also asked about this manifesto on 60 Minutes, although just to note, he is not named in it.

And the manifesto, it does, though, indicate, doesn't it, that the offender could have been after administration officials as well, not just Donald Trump.

So how significant is that in your mind?

Well, Missy, this is the third, as we said, unsuccessful attempt on Donald Trump's life.

He says he's not going to live in fear.

But as you say, it really highlights the threat of political violence in America, doesn't it?

It must be deeply concerning what's unfolding.

All right, well, Donald Trump, he continually, of course, talks about this ballroom he is building at the White House, and he says this is exactly why he needs it, for safety.

But Missy, what do you think?

Did the protocols work or is there a fundamental problem with how this all unfolded?

All right.

And just then, Missy, your reflections.

What an evening.

As a reporter, as a guest, what do you take away from this whole event?
