Pat Bev Podcast on Trump incident
On a recent episode of the Pat Bev Podcast, Patrick Beverley expressed his concern for the future of America, calling it "something crazy that happened in the US" and mentioned that he prays for the country's future.
Beverley explained to his co-host how he found out about the incident. He has been watching the TV show House of Cards for the past month and a half, and while watching the show last week, his wife told him, "Babe, the president just got shot."
Beverley, initially shocked, logged into Twitter to confirm the news. He then shared stories about friends from his neighborhood, who were also taken aback by the incident.
In Beverley's neighborhood, it's common for people to "throw a five," which is something Trump did after being shot in the ear. One of Beverley's friends called him and said, “Ay bro, you see Trump just throw up the fin..!?”, meaning, he asked Beverley if he saw Trump throwing a fist pump in air after getting shot. This funny reaction of Beverley's friend left co-host Rone in stitches.
Beverley himself thought that, "This motherf**ker Trump is tough, he's tough." One of Beverley’s other friends, who had also been shot before, never voted in his life, but now he felt a connection with Trump and expressed his intent to vote for him in November.
Beverley also shared that he initially had a lot of concern for the crowd at the scene, hoping that no one else was hurt. Unfortunately, he soon learned that a 50-year-old firefighter was fatally shot dead, and another person was injured. Beverley extended his condolences, saying, "Prayers up for that family… rest in heaven, man… for real," acknowledging the sacrifice made. Beverley concluded by saying, “Prayers up for America… crazy times.”
