A photograph captured the moment former President Donald Trump nearly lost his life in an assassination attempt on Saturday, with his right ear clipped and blood smeared across his cheek, surrounded by Secret Service with his fist defiantly up in the air — a moment Rep. Jim Banks said will “live for ages to come.”
Banks, who called the assassination attempt “just shocking,” said Trump sounded “upbeat” when they spoke on the phone on Monday morning, and that the former President is excited about his speech at the RNC on Thursday, because “He knows there’s so much at stake.” He also reflected on advice Trump gave to him once as a young congressman, early in Trump’s presidential term, that showed the depths of the former president’s warrior spirit.
Trump’s relentlessness in the face of so much opposition — now including an attempt on his life — has transformed the RNC into something more than just a political convention, Banks added.
