Kevin Dietsch/Getty ImagesA man has been charged with threatening to kill Donald Trump shortly after the first attempt on the former president’s life.

I am going to down him personally and kill him,” according to court filings first reported Monday by Forbes.Though Bedminster, home to one of Trump’s golf clubs, is in fact located more than 1,200 miles away in New Jersey, Crazybull is accused of making another eight such calls to the Palm Beach resort on July 31—just two weeks after a botched assassination attempt against the Republican candidate at a rally in Butler County, Pennsylvania.Read more at The Daily Beast.
