Former US President Donald Trump has spoken out after a recent assassination attempt at a rally in Pennsylvania, saying he was “saved by luck or God”. Trump told conservative media that he felt he had been saved by a combination of luck and divine intervention, and that the bullet that grazed his ear could have easily killed him. He described the moment he realized he had been shot, and the energy of the crowd as they stood in shock. Trump also said that the incident has given him a chance to bring the country together, and that his upcoming speech at the Republican National Convention will be completely different from the one he had originally planned. The attack left one spectator dead and two others injured, and the gunman was shot dead by the Secret Service. President Joe Biden has called for a lowering of the “temperature of politics” in the wake of the attack.
