NEWARK, NJ. (THECOUNT) — Former President Donald Trump resurfaced after surviving an assassination attempt that left him with a gunshot wound to the ear. He arrived at Newark Liberty International Airport around midnight with a white bandage on his right ear, a stark reminder of how close he came to a fatal injury.
Trump’s head of communications stated, “Strong and resilient. He will never stop fighting for America.”
Trump received treatment at a Pennsylvania medical facility and is now gearing up for the Republican National Convention on Monday. While it is unclear if the shooting will alter his plans, it seems likely that he will be front and center to accept the nomination.
The shooter, Thomas Matthew Crooks, was killed by Secret Service snipers shortly after the attack.
