Trump: ‘It Was God Alone Who Prevented the Unthinkable
Breitbart ^ | 07/14/2024 | Kristina Wong

Former President Donald Trump issued a message of faith on Sunday following an assassination attempt that almost succeeded during a rally in Pennsylvania, exhorting Americans to remain strong and determined.

“Thank you to everyone for your thoughts and prayers yesterday, as it was God alone who prevented the unthinkable from happening,” he posted on Truth Social.

God made him a living martyr so, I would guess the next thing is that God will make him a leader.

He did honor the fallen citizen in his statement. It’s all there at the article link, and it’s also posted in a comment above yours. 😊

I’m curious about just how old this ‘older’ couple was and what their profile is. Academics? Work for the government? Pseudo-intellectuals? Frequently vacation in Europe?

I’m sorry, but it really bothers me when survivors say God protected them from a tragedy that other innocent people did not survive.

At least one innocent bystander is dead from the same shooting - did God protect President Trump and not the innocent bystander?

It definitely wasn't the Secret Service that prevented it.

But at least they were good sportsmen about it and let the guy fire first.

I personally think the little turn of Trumps head at first is the bullet striking him.

But it takes a fraction of a second for the mind to register pain, which is why just after trump then suddenly lurches a little and brings his hand up to his ear and then away from it just as the sound of the first bullet makes it to him basically.

I’m far and away, ahead of your mischaracterization and presumptuous lectures - and my posting history about the jews fighting intimidation and our fighting the enemies domestic proves this. “Going berserker” at a party, as I put it, is not worth the jail time against two presumably effete cocktail swigging leftists. Additionally, I’ve long stood for organizing forces, but there seems to be no way to do so without being infiltrated. My choice is to prep and fight locally, and choosing the smart and honorable venues to do so.

People like that at this point really just need to be insulted and ridiculed to level that forces them to leave. And if they don’t, then just continue the insult and ridicule they earned it.

God was watching over Trump last night..if he had not moved his head in that precise moment, when just a second earlier he was looking straight ahead, he’s be dead..we would have all witnessed his brains being blown off on live TV..nothing is for certain in life, nothing is guaranteed, we have to live every second like its our last

Trump is a sheep dog.

Another revelation of the heart of the man.

yet many still focus on “he is so mean”

I agree with your point. Crediting God for stopping “the unthinkable” comes across as missing the reality that the unthinkable DID happen to innocent bystanders. If Trump has already expressed sympathy for his fellow victims, good. I’d like to see him visit/help the family of the deceased, go to the funeral if possible, visit, call or help the wounded somehow. They represent all his supporters, who put themselves at risk with Trump.

The media will edit and twist anything Trump says, so I hope he will just be sincere and do what he knows is right. To heck with the vultures.

Tell them off

The time for nice is past. Long past. Idiots like that couple had a free pass for years.

No longer.

Stop being nice. Be good.

Sheep dogs must still have masters or and be disciplined or they go rogue! They must be mastered in ways that regular sheep can trust!

Not enough...still in the mist of the aftermath. I think he’ll do something more substantial later...perhaps mention their sacrifice in various rallies. That would be a good thing!
