Former <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/donald-trump">President Donald Trump</a> reflected on his “encounters with death” and said the multiple assassination attempts on his life have only “hardened” his resolve.
On Wednesday at a rally in Long Island, New York, <a href="https://x.com/theblaze/status/1836547835799458296">Trump took the stage</a> speaking to a packed crowd at the Nassau Coliseum following the apparent second assassination attempt against the former president on Sunday at his International Golf Club in West Palm Beach.
“So, as you know, three days ago, there was yet another assassination attempt on my life,” <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jGOhIM94zzk">Trump said</a> as the crowd broke out into boos. “It was the second one in eight weeks by a violent radical left mobster.”
“And God has now spared my life,” he added. “It must have been God, thank you. Not once, but twice. … These encounters with death have not broken my will. They have really given me a much bigger and stronger mission.”

“They&#8217;ve only hardened my resolve to use my time on earth to make America great again for all Americans,” Trump continued. “To put America first. We’re gonna put America first.”

During the rally, chants of “USA, USA, USA” broke out after Trump announced that he’s going to win New York, which would be a first for a Republican since <a href="https://ballotpedia.org/Presidential_voting_trends_in_New_York">1984</a>, and vowed to “fix up our country.”
The former president was targeted in another apparent assassination attempt on Sunday when a 58-year-old man hid out for 12 hours near Trump’s golf course in Florida, allegedly to take a shot at him. Sunday’s assassination attempt came just two months after Trump was shot in the ear during his rally in Butler, Pennsylvania.
During a town hall event on Tuesday, the former president talked about his economic policies and suggested that his “consequential” agenda could be the reason he’s been “shot at,” as previously <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/trump-only-consequential-presidents-get-shot-at">reported</a>.
Trump spoke with Arkansas Gov. Sarah Huckabee Sanders in front of a large crowd in Flint, Michigan, and the former president said he has been saddened to see the decline of the automotive industry in the Detroit and Flint area — what was known as the car manufacturing capital of the world.
The Republican nominee said the U.S. needs to manufacture more vehicles in the country instead of in Mexico and China. He then promised the crowd of Michiganders that his administration would put a 200% tariff on vehicles manufactured outside of the U.S.
