President Donald Trump on Thursday said he does not worry about another attempt on his life on the heels of what prosecutors say was a third assassination effort against him by a gunman at the White House Correspondents' Association dinner on April 24. "I don't think about it," Trump told a reporter when asked at the White House if he was concerned about another assassination attempt. "If I did, I wouldn't be he," the president said. Trump also said he was not inclined to wear a bulletproof vest, as some people have suggested. "i don't know if i can handle being 20 pounds heavier," he quipped to laughs from administration officials and lawmakers who were in the Oval Office for his signing of an executive order to create a new type of retirement account for workers who do not have access to a 401(k) or another tax-advantaged workplace investment plan.
