<p>Former President Donald Trump secured major endorsements Saturday afternoon after a man who <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/police-ransack-home-of-20-year-old-suspected-shooter-who-donated-to-liberal-org-on-bidens-inauguration-day?topStoryPosition=2">donated</a> to far-left causes shot Trump in the ear during what federal law enforcement officials have officially labeled an assassination attempt.</p>
<p>The suspect — identified by the FBI as 20-year-old Thomas Matthew Crooks — was shot and killed after he fired multiple rounds at Trump, one of which was literally an inch from being a potentially fatal hit. At least one Trump supporter in the crowd was killed and two more were seriously injured during the attack, the U.S. Secret Service said in a statement.</p>
<p>As shots rang out, Trump <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/trump-stops-secret-service-from-carrying-him-off-raises-fist-and-tells-supporters-fight-fight-fight">grabbed</a> his ear — a journalist captured a <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/journalist-captures-photo-of-bullet-whizzing-past-trumps-head-after-it-hit-his-ear">photograph</a> of the bullet after it hit Trump and traveled past his head — and Secret Service shouted &#8220;Get down! Get down! Get down!&#8221;</p>
<p>Trump dropped to the ground as he was tackled by Secret Service until Matthew was neutralized by law enforcement.</p>
<p>Before they moved him off the stage, Trump yelled at the agents: “Wait! Wait! Wait!” Then looking at the thousands of supporters who showed up, he raised his fist and shouted: “Fight! Fight! Fight!”</p>
<p>X owner Elon Musk posted a video of Trump&#8217;s remarks to the crowd: &#8220;I fully endorse President Trump and hope for his rapid recovery.&#8221;</p>
<blockquote class="twitter-tweet" data-width="500" data-dnt="true">
<p lang="en" dir="ltr">I fully endorse President Trump and hope for his rapid recovery <a href="https://t.co/ZdxkF63EqF">pic.twitter.com/ZdxkF63EqF</a></p>
<p>&mdash; Elon Musk (@elonmusk) <a href="https://twitter.com/elonmusk/status/1812256998588662068?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">July 13, 2024</a></p></blockquote>
<p>Musk&#8217;s endorsement comes after Bloomberg News <a href="https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2024-07-12/elon-musk-donates-to-trump-tapping-vast-fortune-to-swing-2024-race">reported</a> last week that Musk has donated a &#8220;sizable amount&#8221; of money to a super PAC backing Trump. The amount will not be known until later this week.</p>
<p>Musk also called for &#8220;the head of the Secret Service and the leader of this security detail&#8221; to resign immediately after they failed to stop the attack.</p>
<p>&#8220;Extreme incompetence or it was deliberate,&#8221; he added. &#8220;Either way, the SS leadership must resign.&#8221;</p>
<p>Hedge fund manager Bill Ackman, who is friends with Musk, posted on X: &#8220;I am going to formally endorse @realDonaldTrump . I came to this decision some time ago as many @X followers have already understood from my supportive posts of Trump and my criticisms of @POTUS Biden.&#8221;</p>
<p>He said that he would explain his decision in a lengthy post but he hasn&#8217;t had time to put together everything that he wants to write.</p>
<p>&#8220;I believe the upcoming presidential election is one of the most consequential elections in my lifetime so I am taking the proper time to articulate observations that I will share widely and for which I assume an important responsibility,&#8221; he said, adding that people&#8217;s perceptions of him have been wildly skewed by a dishonest media.</p>
<blockquote class="twitter-tweet" data-width="500" data-dnt="true">
<p lang="en" dir="ltr">I am going to formally endorse <a href="https://twitter.com/realDonaldTrump?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">@realDonaldTrump</a>.

<p>The reason why I have not yet formally done so is that I want to explain my…</p>
