Donald Trump got hit on his ear during an attempt on his life at an election rally in Butler, Pennsylvania.
My heart tells me God intervened not just for Trump, but for our nation. “Today, the future survival of the United States
Vivek Ramaswamy, an Indian-American entrepreneur, denounced today’s attack on former US President Donald Trump, who was struck in the ear during an attempted assassination attempt at an election rally in Butler, Pennsylvania.
“We believe the fact that Trump is safe right now is nothing short of an act of God,” Ramaswamy, who challenged the 78-year-old politician for the Republican presidential nomination at the primaries, wrote in a long post on X.
“My heart tells me God intervened not just for Trump, but for our nation. Today, the future survival of the United States of America came down to less than a hair’s width in the path of a bullet,” Ramaswamy said.
On the other hand, he disparaged US President Joe Biden, stating, “First they sued him. They then took him to court. Next, they attempted to remove him from the voting list. If we’re being really honest, the only thing that is more awful than what happened just now is that it wasn’t entirely unexpected.
“When Biden finally condemns political violence, it will be a ceremonial denunciation that is both unnecessary and insufficient. The poisonous national atmosphere that caused this tragedy cannot be changed by words spoken tonight, the speaker added.
He stated, “Let’s come together around the fact that what happened today is “unacceptable, now and forever,” regardless of who you vote for.
Meanwhile, Trump was seen for the first time hours after the assassination attempt as he arrived at Newark Airport, waving as he walked down the stairs of his private jet. The shooter has been identified as Thomas Matthew Crooks, 20. He was killed by Secret Service snipers.
