‘Perhaps It’s God:’ Trump Offers Spiritual Reason for Surviving Assassination Attempts

By USA Today. Former President Donald Trump offered political and spiritual reasons Monday for surviving two assassination attempts in two months.

While again criticizing the “rhetoric” of Vice President Kamala Harris and President Joe Biden, Trump said during an X Spaces interview that something else may be going on: “I mean, perhaps it’s God wanting me to be president to save this country; nobody knows.”

Trump discussed the pair of attempted murders during an X program otherwise devoted to the launch of a new cryptocurrency project that involves his two eldest sons. . .

“That was some crazy day,” Trump said. “And then yesterday, you had another one.”

Trump also confirmed that Biden called him to discuss the latest incident, and said that “he couldn’t have been nicer.” (Read more from “‘Perhaps It’s God:’ Trump Offers Spiritual Reason for Surviving Assassination Attempts” HERE)

Suspect in Trump Assassination Attempt May Have Lain in Wait for 12 Hours

By Reuters. A man suspected of hiding for nearly 12 hours in an apparent attempt to assassinate Donald Trump at his Florida golf course was charged with two gun-related crimes on Monday, a day after authorities say he was spotted in the bushes with a rifle as the former U.S. president played nearby. . .

Trump’s visit to his golf course in West Palm Beach was not on his public schedule, acting U.S. Secret Service Director Ronald Rowe told reporters on Monday afternoon, and it was not clear whether the suspect knew Trump would be there.

“All of a sudden we heard shots being fired in the air. I guess probably four or five,” Trump said during an event on X Spaces. “Secret Service knew immediately it was bullets, and they grabbed me. … We got into the carts and we moved along pretty, pretty good. I was with an agent, and the agent did a fantastic job.”

The Secret Service opened fire after an agent sweeping the course saw a rifle barrel poking out of the bushes a few hundred yards away from the former president, who was on the fairway of the fifth hole.

MSNBC’s Lie: ‘Both’ Would-Be Trump Assassins ‘Are White, American, Trump-Supporting Men’

On Monday’s broadcast of MSNBC’s “ReidOut,” claimed that both of the would-be assassins of 2024 Republican presidential candidate former President Donald Trump “are white, American, Trump-supporting men with guns.”

During her show’s opening monologue, Reid said, “What better way to replace the embarrassing memes about JD’s cat lady fixation and his weird possible amorous relationship with couches than to get Americans to instead post memes about Haitians eating the dogs and cats?”

. . .

Later, she concluded, “All of this as Trump faces his second brush with death, via a gunman shooting at him in Palm Beach, Florida, just as happened in Pennsylvania, neither of whom were Haitian or any kind of immigrant. Both of whom are white, American, Trump-supporting men with guns.” (Read more from “MSNBC’s Lie: ‘Both’ Would-Be Trump Assassins ‘Are White, American, Trump-Supporting Men’” HERE)

WATCH: Network Suggests Trump Is Inviting Assassination Attempts (VIDEO)

In yet another example of the mainstream media’s absurdity, MSNBC suggests that Trump was inviting assassination attempts and asks if he will “tone down the violent rhetoric” or if that would be atypical. The media continues to prove themselves as the enemy of the people.

Trump Breaks Silence Following 2nd Assassination Attempt, Just 64 Days After Being Shot

Former President Trump told his supporters on Sunday he was “safe and well” after a second attempted assassination on his life, this time in West Palm Beach, Florida.

Trump was on the fifth hole of the Trump International Golf Club in West Palm Beach on Sunday afternoon when the U.S. Secret Service opened fire on a man, identified as Ryan Wesley Routh, who was allegedly armed with a rifle. . .

“There were gunshots in my vicinity, but before rumors start spiraling out of control, I wanted you to hear this first: I AM SAFE AND WELL,” Trump wrote after the events. “Nothing will slow me down. I will NEVER SURRENDER! I will always love you for supporting me. Unity. Peace. Make America Great Again.”

The Secret Service is working closely with authorities and investigating the situation, and U.S. Attorney General Merrick Garland has been briefed. (Read more from “Trump Breaks Silence Following 2nd Assassination Attempt, Just 64 Days After Being Shot” HERE)

ABC Moderator Admits: ‘Fact-Checking’ Was Only Planned for Trump

ABC News’ Linsey Davis, one of two moderators for last week’s presidential debate, admitted to the Los Angeles Times that the plan was only to fact-check former President Donald Trump, and not Vice President Kamala Harris.

As Breitbart News noted, Davis and co-moderator David Muir fact-checked Trump seven times — often incorrectly — while never fact-checking Harris once, even when she used hoaxes, such as the Charlottesville “very fine people” hoax.

Davis told the Times that ABC had deliberately targeted Trump — and only Trump — because of perceptions that he had been allowed to get away with false statements in the CNN debate against President Joe Biden in late June.

As the New York Post noted:

In an interview with the Los Angeles Times, Davis said she wanted to address concerns that Trump’s statements could be allowed to “hang” there unchallenged by his opponent or the moderators, as they were when Trump and Biden debate on CNN in June.

“Davis, wearing pink glasses while speaking to The Times over breakfast at the Ritz Carlton in Philadelphia, said the decision to attempt to correct the candidates was in response to the June 27 CNN debate between Trump and President Biden, whose poor performance led to his exit from the race,” the Times reported.

Would-Be Trump Assassin Had Biden-Harris Bumper Sticker on Pickup Truck at Hawaii Home

The alleged gunman who targeted former President Trump had a Biden-Harris bumper sticker on the back of a pickup truck at his home in Kaaawa, Hawaii.

Ryan Wesley Routh, 58, frequently posted about politics online and has exclusively donated to Democratic candidates and causes since 2019.

Routh advised Biden, 81, in an April 22 X post when he was still running for reelection, to run a campaign around keeping “America democratic and free.”

He also claimed Trump wants to “make Americans slaves against master.” (Read more from “Would-Be Trump Assassin Had Biden-Harris Bumper Sticker on Pickup Truck at Hawaii Home” HERE)

Vance Apparently Chastised for Out-of-Line Comments on Abortion

Sen. J.D. Vance says he won’t try to speak for Donald Trump in the future after the vice presidential nominee expressed a contradicting viewpoint on a federal abortion ban.

The admission came after a moment at Tuesday’s debate where the former president broke with his running mate and said they have not yet discussed a veto on banning abortion at a national level.

‘I think that I’ve learned my lesson on speaking for the president before he and I have actually talked about an issue,’ Vance said in an interview with Meet the Press host Kristen Welker on Sunday morning.

The Ohio Senator said his point last month was to reiterate that Trump has been clear he does not support the idea of a national ban – but that he also thinks the issue would never cross his desk because it wouldn’t get through Congress in the first place.

Asked at the debate with Vice President Kamala Harris in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania on Tuesday if he would veto a bill putting a federal ban on abortions, Trump was noncommittal. . .

But when the ABC debate moderator Linsey Davis pressed him on Vance’s remarks just weeks earlier, the ex-president broke with his running mate

‘I didn’t discuss it with J.D. in all fairness,’ Trump said on stage. ‘J.D. – and I don’t mind if he has a certain view – but I think he was speaking for me. But I really didn’t.’ (Read more from “Vance Apparently Chastised for Out-of-Line Comments on Abortion” HERE)

Biden Boasts: We Created ‘Black Jobs’

President Joe Biden used the term “black jobs” on Friday, using a phrase that Democrats and journalists said was racist when former President Donald Trump used it to describe jobs taken by migrants from African-Americans.

Biden and Vice President Kamala Harris, the Democratic nominee for president, were both set to speak at the event.

In his remarks, Biden said:

Thank you for all you’ve taught me. Thank you for all the love you’ve extended to me. I also wanted to host this brunch because we have progress to celebrate.

Together, we’re making the most significant investment in black America in all of American history [sic]. We’ve centered racial equity at the center of everything we do. With your help, in just three and-a-half years we’ve created over 2 million new black jobs for black Am — black Americans, a black —

[Interjections]

By the way, the next black job to be filled is as President of the United States of America.

[Applause]

Watch me.

Dem Senator Warns Report on Trump Assassination Attempt ‘Will Absolutely Shock the American People’

It’s been nearly two months since the assassination attempt on Donald Trump in Butler, Pennsylvania. Thomas Matthew Crooks, 20, tried to kill the former president with a rifle on July 13, perched atop an unprotected rooftop less than 200 yards from the rally stage. We don’t know why this roof, a glaring security issue, was left unguarded. The initial response from the Secret Service was that the sloped roof presented physical dangers to the agents, who got laughed out of the room. It was one of the final official statements made about the event by then-director Kimberley Cheatle, who got lambasted by Congress during her testimony and later resigned.

Now, Sen. Richard Blumenthal (D-CT) is bracing the nation for the report about the security failures that occurred that day, adding, “I think the American people are going to be shocked, astonished & appalled by what we will report to them about the failures by the Secret Service in this assassination attempt on the former president [Trump].”

The Connecticut liberal didn’t stop there.

“I think they also ought to be appalled & astonished by the failure of the Department of Homeland Security to be more forthcoming, to be as candid and frank as it should be to them in terms of providing information, he added.

These agencies have been cagey and essentially adopted a bunker mentality. The Secret Service initially denied that requests for additional resources to Trump were denied. They later had to admit this was the case, with acting Director Ronald Rowe at the forefront of these matters.

Trump Reveals Why He Won’t Debate Harris Again

. . .“We just don’t think that there’s any need for it,” the 45th president exclusively told The Post Thursday after announcing on Truth Social he would not take the stage against Vice President Kamala Harris again.

“We’ve done two. You know, one against Biden [on June 27], one against Comrade Kamala. I did well. I did really well,” the 78-year-old said during a phone interview.

. . .Shortly before Trump’s announcement, the campaign blasted out a “confidential memorandum” claiming that its internal polling had showed the Republican nominee gaining two percentage points on Harris among likely voters across seven unidentified “target states.”

The GOP campaign had previously argued that the Harris camp should “stop f—ing around,” in the words of one Trump spokesperson, and take up the former president’s offer of a Sept. 25 debate hosted by NBC News.

Instead, the Harris camp countered by proposing a debate to be held sometime in October.

“There’s no debate on the 25th,” Trump told The Post Thursday afternoon. “Nothing has been arranged.” (Read more from “Trump Reveals Why He Won’t Debate Harris Again” HERE)
