Trump holds first rally after assassination attempt with his new running mate, Vance, by his side

-

 


Donald Trump held his first campaign rally since surviving an assassination attempt, returning to the battleground state of Michigan on Saturday with his newly appointed running mate.


"That was this minute a week ago," Trump told the crowd, recalling the July 13 shooting in Pennsylvania that left one supporter dead and two wounded, his ears bleeding.


"It is only by the grace of God almighty that I stand before you," he said, the white gauze over his ears turning into flesh-colored bandages. "I shouldn't be here right now," he continued. President Trump and Senator JD Vance of Ohio also attended their first joint event since he was nominated for the Republican nomination at the Republican National Convention in Milwaukee.


"I can't believe that a week ago an assassin tried to kill Donald Trump, and now there's a huge crowd in Michigan welcoming him back to the race," Vance said before President Trump's arrival. Michigan is one of the few battleground states that could determine the outcome of the November presidential election. In 2016, Trump narrowly won the state by just over 10,000 votes, but in 2020, Democrat Joe Biden won by 154,000 votes and took the presidency.

Trump, who seemed unusually subdued and emotional during the Republican National Convention, returned to his usual rallying mode, insulting his Democratic rivals, repeating lies about the 2020 election and peppering his speech with jokes that drew laughter from the enthusiastic audience.


At one point, Trump looked at a screen showing him at an unusual angle and joked about his comb-over hair.


"That's really stupid. What does that mean?" he said. "I apologize." Man! I looked up there and I said, 'Wow! This is like a work of art!'"


At another point, inviting supporters onto the stage, he said: "He's not carrying a weapon!"

 What is the Gaza Strip? What you want to be aware of the domain at the core of the Israel-Hamas war The Gaza Strip has been the focal point of weighty siege for over seven days after Israel sent off retaliatory airstrikes for the extraordinary dread assault by Palestinian assailant bunch Hamas on Oct. 7. The territory — a limited segment of land among Israel and Egypt, close to the Mediterranean Ocean — is home to generally 2.3 million Palestinians and is portrayed as quite possibly of the most thickly populated put on The planet. The 140-square-mile district is generally the size of Philadelphia. Most of the people who live in Gaza are youthful, with practically 65% of the populace younger than 24. ' World's biggest outside jail' Beginning around 2007, Israel has forced an air, land and ocean bar on the Gaza Strip, saying the move is important to protect the country from Hamas' assaults. Gaza is encircled by substantial walls and security barriers. Palestinians are di

  Terrorist Attacks on Israel and Indian Solidarity with Israel as India also Suffers Islamic Terror                         Islamic terrorism is a global threat, and no country is immune. Israel and India are two countries that have been particularly hard hit by terrorist attacks. In recent years, there has been a growing solidarity between the two countries in the fight against terrorism. Israel is a small country in the Middle East that is surrounded by hostile neighbors. Since its founding in 1948, Israel has been the target of numerous terrorist attacks. These attacks have been carried out by a variety of groups, including Hamas, Hezbollah, and the Palestinian Islamic Jihad.
