BREAKING NEWS: Assassination Attempt on Donald Trump
On July 13th, 2024, Donald Trump was giving his final speech in Butler, PA when he stopped mid-sentence; grabbed his right ear; and ducked under his podium. Former President Trump was speaking the words “[t]ake a look what happened—” as shots rang out throughout the crowd as onlookers watched the former President taking cover. Screams were Trump’s Secret Service jumped to cover the Presidential candidate. Trump arose following the attack, raised his arm, and exited the stage. Blood was seen coming from the President’s ear as he left the stage. This egregious act occurred just days before the Republican National Committee (RNC) convention; where the RNC will announce their nomination for president. On this dire day, Americans across the country stand united in shock, as the nation realizes the horrendous act—the assassination attempt of the campaigning president—that has just occurred.
Overall, the Secret Service was slow to cover former President Trump. Moreover, the response was conducted with laxity, as shots continued to be fired, following the initial shot. Trump must consider hiring more attentive protection. Sources close to President Trump stated that one of the shooters has been neutralized, though officially is unconfirmed. It is unclear if there were multiple shooters at this time. President Trump is stated to be in stable condition.
Next, the essential process of Criminal Justice must be conducted. Any assistance to the perpetrator must be legally incapacitated, and the court’s sentence ought to deter potential consideration of aiding in or conducting future attacks. News sources have now begun to confirm that the shooter is dead; although a bystander was also killed from the gunfire. This sad day in American history must be addressed and prevented by all citizenry.
The most important factor however is that the campaigning President is alive and will continue his pursuit of the White House. It is clear now that the extreme left has shown themselves to be an extension of the deepstate, working in tandem with the bureaucratic tyrants. thereby undermining democracy within our republic utilizing a bottom-up approach. These maleficent forces are, however no match for God’s protection. President Trump was shielded by his faith in the Lord; his continuation is predetermined by our Creator.
Similar here, Teddy Roosevelt was shot leaving his hotel whilst campaigning for a third term in 1912; but proceeded to give his speech. The Theodore Roosevelt Presidential Library reports that “Two things saved his life: a steel case for his glasses and a manuscript of the 50-page speech. Both objects slowed the bullet, which ultimately lodged in Roosevelt’s chest, stopping just short of any vital organs,” (TRLibrary).
Although there are violent political radicals; Christians must stand firm in their faith; that they are shielded and covered by the Blood of Jesus. Had Donald Trump moved his head in a slightly different position; the shots could’ve been deadly. Instead, by divine intervention, the shooter appears to have grazed Trump’s ear. As it is written, “I have created the blacksmith who fans the coals beneath the forge and makes the weapons of destruction. And I have created the armies that destroy. But in that coming day no weapon turned against you will succeed. You will silence every voice raised up to accuse you. These benefits are enjoyed by the servants of the LORD; their vindication will come from me. I, the LORD, have spoken!” (Isaiah 54:16-17; NLT).
It is a shocking and horrifying day in American history. But it could have been an even greater tragedy. Instead, it displayed a Supernatural miracle; despite the terrible and unnecessary deaths and injuries of the participants in the crowd. It does not matter the political affiliations or ideological partisanships; there is never an excuse for violence in America. Americans must stand up and reject this inhumane behavior; no matter the candidate. The United States of America is a nation of unity. Our federal government by design, is created to preclude tyranny; placing the president as a spokesperson for his bureaucracy. The establishment and mainstream media continue to inundate society with radical ideology and hateful rhetoric over politicians: proponents of policy. Any citizen violently rising against a populist representative campaigning for president displays the ineptitude of morale that our current government policy strives to enact upon society. We must work together, as individuals, to produce some form of contribution to the redemption of civic morale in this nation.
We mustn’t acquiesce to the nefariously curated divide enacted by evil. Nor should citizens aim to condemn their neighbors. Instead, we must elect candidates that oppose tyranny over the citizenry. The contemporary citizen must again pursue the engagement of civil political argument; not engage in the primitive action of physical conflict. Government is an instrument decreed by God; rooted in the foundation of morality. Thus violence holds no place in America, especially in politics. America must be changed by policy, not acts of violence. May God continue to bless America; bless President Trump; and bless over sovereignty. It is by the Lord's grace that we are granted the freedom to believe no matter our partisanship unto earth.
