Former first lady Melania Trump has issued a statement after the assassination attempt against her husband, former President Donald Trump, during a rally in Butler, Pa., on Saturday.
“America, the fabric of our gentle nation is tattered,” she said in comments posted to X, formerly Twitter. “But our courage and common sense must ascend and bring us back together as one.
“A monster who recognized my husband as an inhuman political machine attempted to ring out Donald’s passion – his laughter, ingenuity, love of music, and inspiration,” the former first lady said.
“The core facets of my husband’s life – his human side – were buried below the political machine. Donald, the generous and caring man who I have been with through the best of times and the worst of times,” she said.
