Kansas City Chiefs Kicker Harrison Butker Delivers Blunt 4-Word Message After Donald Trump Shooting
G21 News ^ | JULY 15, 2024 | Staff

Kansas City Chiefs kicker Harrison Butker had a brief message for Americans following the shocking attempt on Donald Trump’s life.

The former United States President was speaking at a rally in Butler, Pennsylvania, on Saturday when a shooter fired multiple shots, with one of them hitting him in the right ear.

While Trump was able to stand right back up and pump a fist into the air, a spectator wasn’t so lucky.

The shooter, who was killed by a Secret Service sniper, has been identified as Thomas Matthew Crooks of Bethel Park, Pennsylvania. Harrison Butker, meanwhile, returned to the spotlight after he was called out by Serena Williams during the ESPYs on Thursday night, with the former tennis star telling him he shouldn’t watch women’s sports following his controversial speech.

The Chiefs kicker took to X/Twitter to deliver a brief message after the assassination attempt on Trump. “Pray for our country,” he wrote in his first post since last October.

“Praying for you too sir. Be strong,” a user replied.

“Thank you Harrison! We’re all praying for him – and for brave warriors like you,” wrote another.

Some of the comments weren’t in agreeance, however. “Because prayers have always worked,” someone else said.

“News flash, they don’t. Everyone always offers up thoughts and prayers but not actually action. So yeah I guess prayers for the country because that will make it all better.”

The FBI’s investigation into the shooting remains ongoing.

It was said on a different thread, that FBI investigation, is better translated as “cover up.”

Put on the full armour of God like Trump has done because of his brush with death.

HIs brush with death was a brush with death for each and every one of us.

We are fighting evil. We need the armor of god as the dice are being cast, so that the events to come can turn on coincidence to protect President Trump. The attempts on the life of President Trump and on the lives of his family will continue.

Putting on the armor of od happens through prayer and asking for it. It also involves oGur perception becoming deeper and more vivid. Once you have achieved the full armor of God, it needs to be humbly maintained by daily prayer and thanks. Do not fall into the trap of megalomania, for there you will destroy yoursef. Ask for protection from that.

Such armor radiates kindess and love, but it also allows quick action to battle evil should it arise.

May God continue to bless and protect President Trump and his family as we all put on the golden armor of God.

I actually I think it might have been the hand of God Himself who gave DJT a very slight touch at the exact moment so the bullet didn’t him in his brainpan and instead just grazed his ear so he can become our next president and try to clean up that shit hole in DC. Just my thought.

Everyone always offers up thoughts and prayers but not actually action.

Prayers are just one element, and no one is suggesting inaction. Trump offered another important element, Fight! Fight! Fight!, to which we can add Vote! Vote! Vote!
