Trump Returns to Campaign Trail After Assassination Attempt

Donald Trump dismissed concerns about his threat to democracy, proclaiming to a cheering Michigan crowd, “Last week I took a bullet for democracy,” at the first rally since the assassination attempt.

“I’m not an extremist at all,” Trump asserted, addressing allegations linking him to Project 2025, a controversial plan some describe as authoritarian.

He also ridiculed the Democratic Party, which faces internal pressures regarding President Joe Biden’s potential re-election campaign due to concerns about his age and capacity to serve through 2029.

“They have no idea who their candidate is… This guy goes, and he gets the votes, but now they want to take it away. That’s democracy,” Trump declared to his 12,000 supporters in Grand Rapids.

Trump disavows Project 2025 as “extreme” and orchestrated by the “severe right” at Michigan rally.

“I don’t know anything about it. I don’t want to know anything about it.”

In his speech, Trump reiterated his strict immigration stance and perpetuated unverified claims about migrant crimes. He admired autocrats like China’s Xi Jinping, praising his iron-fisted rule over 1.4 billion people.

Reflecting on the rally in Pennsylvania where the assassination attempt occurred, Trump recounted how he had raised a fist and encouraged his supporters to “fight!” after the attack, a moment that resonated with his audience in Grand Rapids. Some supporters, however, started to leave the venue after 90 minutes.

The rally marked a significant return for Trump one week after the attack. He appeared with a new, smaller bandage over the right ear, which had been grazed during the attack that also resulted in a bystander’s death.

Amid heightened security at the Van Andel Arena, questions about Secret Service effectiveness persisted, although no increased law enforcement presence was evident.

Meanwhile, Biden’s camp supported his candidacy amid increasing calls for him to withdraw. Speculation about his potential replacement looms, with Vice President Kamala Harris seen as a likely successor.

Senator Elizabeth Warren supported Biden on MSNBC but noted, “If President Biden decides to step back, we have Vice President Kamala Harris, who is ready to step up.”

Trump’s running mate, J.D. Vance, criticized Harris before introducing Trump, questioning her accomplishments compared to his military and business background.

Trump supporters had eagerly gathered in Grand Rapids, with one, Edward Young, attending his 81st rally. Young wore a T-shirt featuring Trump raising his fist post-assassination attempt, symbolizing his continued influence and resilience.
