Trump blames 'radical left' for second assassination attempt
The Straits Times|September 20, 2024
Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump claimed he was being targeted by "radical left" forces and vowed to campaign with renewed purpose at his first full-fledged campaign rally since an alleged second assassination attempt on Sept 15.
Trump blames 'radical left' for second assassination attempt

"These encounters with death have not broken my will," he told a raucous crowd in Uniondale, New York, on Sept 18. "They have only hardened my resolve."

Trump spoke at a Long Island sports arena packed with more than 10,000 supporters, even though New York, which leans heavily Democratic, is not considered to be a competitive state in the Nov 5 election.

Local Democrats said they did not mind having Trump in the region, as it was keeping him from campaigning in battleground states set to decide the election outcome.

Trump wasted no time referencing the Sept 15 arrest of a gunman whom the authorities allege planned to shoot the Republican presidential candidate while he was golfing on his course in West Palm Beach, Florida.

In July, another gunman wound- ed Trump as he gave a speech in Pennsylvania.
