what about the other two president who got can??
where is the coincidence in that
James Garfield
On the morning of July 2, 1881, President James Garfield was shot twice in his back by Charles Guiteau, a mentally ill supporter who believed that he should have been awarded an ambassadorship for his (almost entirely imagined) role in Garfield's election the previous year. Surgeons, determined to find the bullet, inadvertently made matters far worse for Garfield. "The doctors tortured the president with more digital probing and many surgical attempts to widen the three-inch deep wound into a 20-inch-long incision," in an effort to remove the bullet, said Dr. Howard Markel at PBS News. Garfield declined over the course of the following weeks, finally dying of sepsis more than two months later, on Sept. 19, 1881. "I did not kill the President. The doctors did that. I merely shot him," Guiteau said at his trial. He was executed by hanging on June 30, 1882.
William McKinley
Less than a year after his decisive 1900 re-election victory over Democrat William Jennings Bryan, Republican President William McKinley was visiting the Pan-American Exposition in Buffalo, New York on Sept. 6, 1901, when an anarchist named Leon Czolgosz fired two bullets point-blank into McKinley's stomach. McKinley was rushed into emergency surgery, where surgeons sutured his stomach but were unable to locate the bullet. He seemed to be improving initially, but in the days that followed, McKinley developed a gangrene infection and eventually died on Sept. 14. "I don't believe in the Republican form of government, and I don't believe we should have any rulers," Czolgosz told doctors in Buffalo. He was executed on Oct. 29, 1901.
