The American president returned to the attacks he suffered during the campaign.
The new President of the United States Donald Trump affirmed Monday in his inauguration speech that God had “saved” of an assassination attempt on July 13 in Pennsylvania “so that I can restore the greatness of Americae”.
“I have learned a lot in recent years, I know that to recover our Republic, it has not been easy, those who oppose our cause have tried to take away my freedom, and even to take away my life Only two months ago, in a beautiful field in Pennsylvania, an assassin’s bullet passed through my ear. I felt then, and even more so now, that my life was saved for a reason. . God saved me to restore his greatness to America.”, said the 47th American president, who has just been sworn in at the Capitol in Washington.
Targeted twice
As a reminder, in July, Donald Trump was injured in the ear following an assassination attempt during an electoral campaign meeting.
The candidate, aged 78, was evacuated with a bloody face after the shooting in Butler, Pennsylvania (north-east). Before officers led him to a large black vehicle, he raised a fist at the crowd in defiance.
-Two months later, in September, Trump was shot with an AK-47 rifle near Mr. Trump’s golf course in Florida, where the former president was playing. American media then indicated that Mr. Routh, 58, was the author of the attempt which was aborted after agents of the elite police of the Secret Service “opened fire on the armed man”.
