Trump’s Last-Minute Head Tilt Saved His Life| Chilling Photo, Slow-Motion Videos Of Bullet Go Viral

Nearly a decade ago, Donald Trump famously stated, "What separates the winners from the losers is how a person reacts to each new twist of fate." On Saturday, the former president narrowly escaped a potential tragedy, underlining the uncanny relevance of his words. As the nation awaits the verdict on who will emerge victorious in November, Trump's recent brush with death might already position him as a winner in the eyes of many. While addressing a campaign rally in Butler, Pennsylvania, Trump was suddenly Thrust into a life-threatening situation. Shots were fired towards the stage, and in a fortunate twist of fate, Trump, who had been looking straight ahead, turned his head to the right to point at an immigration chart. This seemingly innocuous gesture saved his life, as the bullet grazed his right ear instead of hitting him directly. #DonaldTrump #TrumpWeapon #AR15 #USGunLaws #USSecurityService #SecurityServiceChief #KimberlyCheatle #TrumpAssassinationAttempt #TrumpShot #DonaldTrumpShot #DonaldTrumpAssassination #AssassinationDonaldTrump #DonaldTrumpShotCampaign #DonaldTrumpEar #DonaldTrumpBullet #USNews #BreakingNews #InternationalNews #DonaldTrumpAssassination #Biden #Trump #PoliticalViolence #NationalUnity #USPresident #BreakingNews #RehobothBeach #DonaldTrump #SecretService #StateAgencies ~PR.152~ED.103~HT.334~
