'Vulnerable' House lawmakers hold safety summit after Trump shooting: 'Pray there aren't crazies there'

House Republicans huddled for a somber safety discussion less than 12 hours after the attempted assassination of former President Trump.

House GOP lawmakers spoke with their sergeant at arms via conference call on Sunday afternoon where questions about security at the Republican National Convention dominated discussion.

"I think most are angered by the failure of security yesterday," one House Republican on the call told Fox News Digital.

That lawmaker said they felt safe "overall" but noted they now had local police stationed by their driveway.

Another House GOP lawmaker said they sensed "low confidence" among members on the call. When asked if they felt that way in relation to the RNC or lawmakers' safety overall, they replied, "All of it."

That second member said they felt "a lot less safe" in the wake of Trump’s shooting.

"Tone was pretty muted and solemn but unified, obviously," a third House GOP lawmaker said of the meeting.

They said they were "comfortable" with their campaign’s security but pointed out that there was always a risk to members who aren’t in leadership.

"The rank and files are generally vulnerable every day we aren’t in the Capitol, unless we have special events with deputies there etc.," that Republican said. "You kind of have to assume a level of risk, unfortunately. And pray there aren’t crazies there that day."

There is renewed scrutiny on the safety of elected officials in the U.S. in the hours after a gunman opened fire at Trump’s Butler, Pennsylvania, rally on Saturday afternoon.
