Trump attempted to organize a large event to mark his return to the site of his first assassination attempt, but the results were so bizarre that they should have been disqualified.
Lara Trump gave us a heads up by claiming that God saved Trump.

Trump falsely claimed that Democrats tried to kill him.

Trump then invited his even more bizarre billionaire friend, Elon Musk, to say a few words.
Elon Musk falsely claims Democrats are trying to take away voting rights. “The other side wants to take away your right to free speech. They want to take away your right to bear arms. They want to effectively take away your right to vote.” .” pic.twitter.com/af12zQb7ua

In the nearly 10 years since Trump appeared on the national stage, a lot of crime and strange things have happened. The way Trump and MAGA hyped Butler’s return felt like some kind of religious ritual.
President Trump evoked religious imagery throughout the event, and Trump even talked about MAGA angels.
The key point to take away from Butler is that Trump and MAGA are true believers who will do anything to get back into the White House and are desperate to win over the majority of Americans and turn them away.
