Donald Trump told the Washington Examiner he turned from the crowd to look at a screen showing data he was using in his speech.
“That reality is just setting in,” he said. “I rarely look away from the crowd. Had I not done that in that moment, well, we would not be talking today, would we?”
“The energy coming from the people there in that moment, they just stood there; it’s hard to describe what that felt like, but I knew the world was looking. I knew that history would judge this, and I knew I had to let them know we are OK.”

Recently, a shocking incident unfolded during a campaign rally in Butler, Pennsylvania, where former President Donald Trump narrowly escaped harm when a gunman targeted him, causing an injury to his ear. The attempted assassination sparked immediate chaos and raised significant concerns about security measures as the 2024 U.S. presidential election looms closer.

“Just to address this since EVERYONE is asking–no, I can’t relate my real feelings on this or I would be speaking to a variety of federal agencies. Use your imagination, and then double that, and you’ve got it.”
