A wide range of CEOs have condemned Saturday's attack on former president Donald Trump and have called for unity. 

Thomas Matthew Crooks allegedly shot Trump, piercing part of his right ear, and killed one other person at a Butler, Pennsylvania, political rally on Saturday. Secret Service agents immediately killed Crooks and found bomb-making materials in his car. The FBI said it believes Crooks acted alone, but there is still absence of a clear ideological motive.
