During a recent X (formerly Twitter) space with Elon Musk on August 12, former President Donald Trump shared how the assassination attempt at his Butler, PA, rally in July deepened his Christian faith. Trump revealed that the moment he was struck by the bullet, he realized it and quickly took cover with Secret Service protection. After the threat was neutralized, he called out “Fight!” before being escorted off the stage.
Trump emphasized that the incident strengthened his belief in God’s protection, noting how he narrowly avoided multiple bullets aimed at his head. Reflecting on his faith journey, he stated, “I’m a believer. Now, I’m more of a believer.”
