<p>Former President <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/donald-trump" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Donald Trump</a> said &#8220;unfinished business&#8221; drew him back to Butler, Pennsylvania, after he survived an assassination attempt there at a campaign rally in July.</p>
<p>During an interview on Fox News, &#8220;Sunday Morning Futures&#8221; host Maria Bartiromo asked Trump about his rally last weekend in the same place a bullet struck his ear nearly three months prior.</p>
<p>&#8220;Why did you have to go back to Butler?&#8221; Bartiromo queried.</p>
<blockquote class="twitter-tweet" data-width="500" data-dnt="true">
<p lang="en" dir="ltr">BARITOROMO: &quot;Why did you have to go back to Butler?&#8230; You started with &#39;as I was saying.&#39;&quot;</p>
<p>PRES. TRUMP: &quot;Unfinished business I think&#8230; It was a beautiful thing because the audience understood it immediately.&quot; <a href="https://t.co/beweZVF5ii">pic.twitter.com/beweZVF5ii</a></p>
<p>&mdash; Trump War Room (@TrumpWarRoom) <a href="https://twitter.com/TrumpWarRoom/status/1845472013390938193?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">October 13, 2024</a></p></blockquote>
<p>Before Trump could answer, Bartiromo added, &#8220;I liked the way you started: &#8216;As I was saying.'&#8221;</p>
<p>She was referencing how Trump <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/as-i-was-saying-trump-begins-butler-rally-with-chart-that-saved-his-life" target="_blank" rel="noopener">re-introduced</a> a chart on illegal immigration that he credits with saving his life because he turned his head to it just as the gunman opened fire.</p>
<p>&#8220;Yea, unfinished business, I think,&#8221; Trump told Bartiromo in response to her question.</p>
<p>In reference to the chart, Trump said, &#8220;I wasn&#8217;t sure if I should start it that way, but I guess it was a good thing.&#8221;</p>
<p>He added, &#8220;It was a beautiful, too, because the audience understood it immediately,&#8221; alluding to the cheers in the audience when he brought the chart back out.</p>
<p>Trump also talked about a <a href="https://x.com/ElizLanders/status/1842694161620664785" target="_blank" rel="noopener">moment of silence</a> last weekend at the same time of day the shooting took place at his rally on July 13.</p>
<p>It was a gesture that honored Corey Comperatore, a fireman who was killed in the shooting, which also injured Trump and other attendees. The gunman was killed by Secret Service counter-snipers.</p>
<p>&#8220;We had a moment of silence, and then we had the great bells of Notre Dame. We had a taping of the great bells of Notre Dame,&#8221; Trump told Bartiromo.</p>
<p>&#8220;You heard the bells going. And there are no bells like that in the village. So we had the great bells,&#8221; he added.</p>
<p>Trump went on to discuss a performance of &#8220;Ave Maria&#8221; by classical singer Christopher Macchio.</p>
<p>&#8220;And then we had a — Christopher, a great opera singer. And he sang &#8216;Ave Maria.&#8217; And it — and I was looking at this massive audience,&#8221; Trump said.</p>
<p>Trump continued, &#8220;Half of the people were crying. I mean, it was incredible. Everybody. I mean, the place was going wild.&#8221;</p>
