Donald Trump, the former US president, has revealed fresh information about the first assassination attempt on his career during a rally in Butler, Pennsylvania. Trump recalled the occurrences of July 13 when he was fatally shot in the neck by shooter Thomas Matthew Crooks in an interview with Fox News.
” Barron was playing golf with his friends, and anyone ran over and said,’ Your husband’s been shot,'” Trump shared, describing how his brother learned of the invasion. ” Barron actually likes his parents a ton … and he came in saying,’ Mom, mother, mother, what happened?'”
Trump was taken off-stage by Secret Service agents during the invasion and taken to a nearby hospital, which was shut down upon his appearance. ” The doctor was wonderful… they close the doctor in its totality, it’s ready for precisely this”, he explained. ” It’s … genius, but who would ever think that”?
Despite being hit in the neck, Trump swiftly stood up, raising his fist in the air and saying “fight, struggle, fight” as he was escorted off the stage. He recalled the silence that followed:” Folks did n’t understand I was alive or not, and then when I did the fist pumps, everyone realised and they’re screaming,’ USA, USA.’ It was the most bizarre day ever.
Trump also observed a moment of silence for Corey Comperatore, a protest visitor who was mortally wounded while protecting his relatives during the shooting. Speaking at the start of his Butler protest, Trump honoured Comperatore’s wife and daughters, who attended the event.
Elon Musk made a surprise appearance at the rally, urging the crowd to vote as the election approached. “Just be a pest to everyone… Vote, vote, vote!” Musk encouraged, adding, “Fight, fight, fight, vote, vote, vote,” as he jumped excitedly on stage.
