Verdict: False

The video is from before the assassination attempt.

Fact Check:

The Secret Service beefed up security around Trump after receiving intel of an Iranian assassination plot against him, according to CNN. The plot does not appear to be related to the July 13 assassination attempt, the outlet reported.

Social media users are showing a video, claiming it shows him golfing after the assassination attempt. One user wrote, “JUST IN: Cheers erupted as Trump played golf at Bedminster today, following his assassination attempt… President Trump also announced he will be arriving in Milwaukee today for the RNC.”

This claim is false. The video was uploaded to TikTok on July 14, but the user said in a reply to a comment that the video was not from that day, according to a Community Note.

Republican Utah Sen. Mike Lee initially spread the video, but then corrected himself in a later tweet.

Okay I’m now told this video was uploaded today but *not* taken today. My bad!
