“Took a bullet for democracy”

Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump is back on his election tour after the assassination attempt.

– Last week I took a bullet for democracy, Trump said at a campaign meeting in Michigan, the first since the attack.

He repeated, to the cheers of the crowd, that it was “the grace of God” that saved him from the bullet that hit his ear.

Trump, wearing a slightly smaller bandage over his ear than the one he wore at the Republican convention this week, took the opportunity to talk about the internal pressure within the Democrats on President Joe Biden.

– At this very moment, the Democrats’ party leaders are frantically trying to overturn the results of their own party’s primary election in order to remove villainous Joe Biden from the ballot, said the former president.

He then called the Democrats “the enemy of democracy”.
