If you were wondering if Donald Trump’s faith in God was strengthened and solidified after the assassination attempt in Butler, Pennsylvania, you don’t have to wonder anymore.
During Trump’s inaugural speech, Trump said something that many of us have been saying for some time.
He noted that he has been tested and tried more than any candidate in history, a fact which cannot be denied as he was subjected to not only endless lawfare but two assassination attempts.
As you’ll remember, Trump was giving a campaign address in Butler when an assassin who managed to get up on a roof took aim and fired a shot at Trump. The bullet came close to hitting Trump squarely, but thanks to a miraculous turn of his head as he looked up at a chart, the bullet missed and grazed his ear instead, sparing Trump his life and proving to many that God had other plans for him.
This was the sentiment Trump gave, solidifying the moment as one where God’s hand was directly involved. Surviving it, as well as all the other obstacles they put in his way, proved to Trump that he was destined to, as he says, “Make America Great Again.”
“Those who wished to stop our cause have tried to take my freedom and, indeed, to take my life,” said Trump. “Just a few months ago, in a beautiful Pennsylvania field, an assassin’s bullet ripped through my ear.”
