After Saturday's attempted assassination at the White House Correspondents' Dinner, we're now at the point where it's truly challenging to keep track of all these serious attempts on Donald Trump's life.

You might think that's an overstatement, or you might think you can name all those assassination attempts from memory, but I'm willing to bet that that's not true at all.

So here's a test.

What happened on September 6th, 2017, during Trump's first term as president?

He was in North Dakota to give a speech at a refinery.

While he was in transit, a 42-year-old man from North Dakota stole a forklift, drove it into Trump's motorcade route with the intent, according to the state's attorney, of, quote, flipping the limo and killing the president.

Now, the plan, as creative as it was, was foiled when the forklift got stuck on a fence.

In the end, it was basically a Timu killdozer.

Ultimately, the attacker settled for lighting a few buildings on fire.

For all this, he received an extremely light sentence, time served, because according to his public defenders, he suffered from attention deficit hyperactivity disorder.

So yes, his excuse, this is not a joke, was ADHD.

And it worked.

You see, ADHD is a disorder that can explain literally everything away from getting bad grades to trying to kill the president.

If ADHD had been invented in the 1860s, maybe John Wilkes Booth could have saved himself the trouble of running away and being an outlaw and then getting shot.

In addition to the forklift attack, by my count, Trump has faced five other

Serious attempts on his life.

Most people at this point say it's three attempts.

Actually, it's six.

There was Michael Sanford in 2016 who tried to grab a police officer's gun to shoot Trump in Las Vegas.
