Trump Tells Elon Musk He’s ‘More of a Believer’ in God After Surviving Assassination Attempt (VIDEO)
In a world that often feels like it’s teetering on the edge of chaos, former President Donald J. Trump recently shared a powerful testimony of faith that should resonate with every believer in this great nation. After surviving a harrowing assassination attempt, Trump declared that he’s now “more of a believer” in God than ever before, calling the fact that only his ear was grazed by a bullet nothing short of a “miracle.”
During a livestream conversation with Elon Musk on X, Trump reflected on the divine intervention that spared his life. “It hit me at an angle that was far less destructive than any other angle,” the 78-year-old Republican leader recounted. “So that was the miracle — so those people who don’t believe in God, I think we got to all start thinking about that.”
For those who have doubted Trump’s faith, let this moment be a reminder of God’s hand in all things. “You know, I’m a believer. Now I’m more of a believer, I think,” Trump shared. “And a lot of people have said that to me. A lot of great people have said that to me, actually. But it was amazing that I happened to be turned just at that perfect angle.”
Trump, always quick to put others before himself, expressed concern for the thousands in attendance at the rally where the attack occurred. His first thought was for their safety. “My first question was — because I heard bullets flying over me — I said, ‘How many people were killed?’ We had a massive crowd. There was a tremendous — thousands and thousands of people.”
Thanks to the swift actions of the Secret Service, a tragedy was averted. The would-be assassin, Thomas Matthew Crooks, was neutralized by a seasoned agent, preventing further loss of life. “I have to take my hat off to [the agent],” Trump said, recognizing the difficulty of the moment. “He’s been with them for 23 years, and he’s never had anything like this. And all of a sudden he has to act. And it’s a very tough thing to act and to be shooting somebody.”
In a world increasingly hostile to Christians, Trump’s story stands as a beacon of hope and a reminder of the power of faith. The former president praised the crowd for their calm in the face of danger, avoiding the deadly stampedes that often follow such incidents. “One of the miracles was that nobody ran,” Trump noted. “When guns go off, and it does happen in stadiums — in a soccer match or some kind of a match — everybody flees. They call it a stampede, like cattle … and a lot of people get killed with stampedes.”
While the mainstream media loves to focus on Trump’s occasional absence from traditional church services, they conveniently ignore his deep connection to faith and the Christian community. Trump, who entered office as a Presbyterian, has since embraced a broader Christian identity, saying in a 2020 interview, “I now consider myself to be a non-denominational Christian.” His spiritual journey has taken him to some of the world’s most remarkable churches, and his faith has been a guiding force throughout his presidency.
As president, Trump made monumental strides for the Christian community, most notably with his appointment of three Supreme Court justices who helped overturn Roe v. Wade, a victory that religious conservatives had prayed for over decades. His unwavering commitment to Christian values has earned him the support of influential faith leaders like Franklin Graham, who spoke at the recent Republican convention in Milwaukee.
In his speech at the RNC, Trump reminded us all of the unpredictable yet miraculous path that life, under God’s guidance, can take. “We live in a world of miracles. None of us knows God’s plan, or where life’s adventure will take us. I want to thank Franklin Graham for being here tonight; he’s an outstanding man,” Trump said.
Trump’s experience is a powerful reminder that God’s hand is ever-present, guiding and protecting those who believe. As we face the challenges of today’s world, let us draw strength from this testimony, knowing that with faith, anything is possible.
