<p>House Majority Leader <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/steve-scalise" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Steve Scalise</a> (R-LA) wrapped up his Tuesday evening speech at the Republican National Convention (RNC) with his take on the recent attempt on former President Donald Trump&#8217;s life and a reference to the 2017 shooting that nearly took his.</p>
<p>Scalise began his remarks by laying out a list of things that President Joe Biden and Vice President Kamala Harris had done to destroy American prosperity and success — and explaining what Trump would do in a second term to right the ship.</p>
<p>&#8220;I was born in New Orleans,&#8221; he said, &#8220;So I&#8217;ve seen some crazy things in my time. But New Orleans has nothing on Washington, D.C., these last four years. Joe Biden and Kamala Harris have spent your tax dollars trashing America&#8217;s finances in ways no sane or sober-minded person ever would.&#8221;</p>

<p>After explaining what Trump would do with a second term in office — punctuated by loud cheers from the audience — Scalise turned back to a much more serious topic: politically motivated violence and the shooting at a Pennsylvania rally that left former President Trump and two others injured and killed firefighter Corey Comperatore.</p>

<p>&#8220;Lastly, I need to say something about Saturday&#8217;s attempt on President Trump&#8217;s life,&#8221; he said. &#8220;Many of you know I was the survivor of a politically motivated shooting in 2017. Not many know that while I was fighting for my life, Donald Trump was one of the first to come console my family at the hospital.&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;That&#8217;s the kind of leader he is,&#8221; Scalise said as the crowd applauded. &#8220;Courageous under fire. Compassionate towards others.&#8221;</p>
