The visuals of a defiant Donald Trump—pumping his fist in the air, with blood on his face—being rushed off the stage by the Secret Service after an "assassination attempt" have once again spotlighted rampant gun violence in the United States. This shocking act of political violence is likely to alter the course of November's presidential election by intensifying the debate on controversial gun laws in the US. Hours before the shooting at Trump’s rally, President Joe Biden issued a statement on X, highlighting his stance on gun control in stark contrast to his Republican rival’s position. “I want to ban assault weapons and require universal background checks,” Biden wrote. He added, “Trump promised the NRA that he’d do nothing about guns. And he means it.”
