In a recent town hall meeting in Flint, Michigan, Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump shared that he had received a call from his Democratic opponent, Kamala Harris. He mentioned that the call was very nice, although he did accidentally mispronounce her name as "Kamaala". Trump did not go into detail about the conversation, but expressed his appreciation for the call. However, there were some in the crowd who booed, prompting Trump to reaffirm his determination to win the election and "take back our country".
Vice-President Harris also spoke about the call, stating that she had reached out to check on Trump's well-being. She reiterated her stance against political violence and shared that she had conveyed this message to him during their call. It was also mentioned that President Joe Biden had spoken to Trump on the phone the day before. Trump took the opportunity to boast about the assassination attempts he has faced, stating that it is something that only consequential presidents experience.
One of these attempts occurred just recently, when Trump's Secret Service detail foiled an attack at a golf course in Florida. A man with a semi-automatic rifle had been hiding in the bushes, but was spotted by an agent who then fired at him. The perpetrator was later caught and identified as Ryan Routh. It was discovered that he had donated to a committee supporting Democratic candidates and had even voted in the party's primary election.
During an interview with Fox News Digital, Trump placed blame on Biden and Harris for the attempted attack. He claimed that Routh had been influenced by their rhetoric and had acted upon it. Trump even went as far as to say that their words were causing him to be targeted, despite the fact that he believes he is the one who will save the country. This was not the first time Trump had been a target of violence, as he had been injured in the ear by a sniper at a rally in Pennsylvania earlier this year.
Interestingly, Trump and Harris had their first face-to-face meeting during their debate in Philadelphia last week. They even shook hands, showing a level of respect and civility that has been lacking in this election. The next day, they encountered each other again at a commemoration of the 9/11 terrorist attack in New York, where they exchanged pleasantries and shook hands once more. Despite their differences, it is clear that both Trump and Harris are able to put aside their political views and treat each other with basic human decency.
