If it isn’t apparent enough who God wants to win.
When you try and kill God’s angels and saviors of the world it just makes them bigger.
Good beats evil every time #Trump2024.

To survive an assassination attempt by mere millimeters then stop your security so you can raise your fist in defiance of death is the most badass thing I’ve ever seen in my life.
I hope everyone is okay.
Find the shooter.

I don’t care how much you love or hate President Donald Trump, now is not the time to play politics. Pray for him, his family and anyone else impacted by today’s shooting.

The would-be assassin, Thomas Matthew Crooks, was shot and killed by Secret Service officers. Trump survived the attempt on his life but took a bullet in the upper part of his right ear.
