White House Correspondents: Donald Trump became emotional over the repeated attacks, said – only influential people are targeted

News India Live, Digital Desk: US President Donald Trump is once again safe after defeating death. Trump has given his first reaction after the deadly attack during the ‘White House Correspondents’ Dinner’ held in Washington on Saturday night. While addressing the journalists in the press briefing room, Trump not only talked about his security but also introspected on the reasons behind the repeated attacks on him. Trump said in a very philosophical manner that history is witness to the fact that people who bring change and impact the world have always been targeted. The sound of the attack was understood to be the noise of ‘tray falling’. Recalling the incident, President Trump said that when the firing started, initially he thought that a food tray had fallen from the hand of a waiter. He said, “There was a lot of noise, I thought it was the sound of something falling. But when the Secret Service agents surrounded me and started taking me to a safe place, then I realized the danger.” Praising the bravery of the security personnel, Trump said that an agent took a bullet to his chest, but his life was saved because of the bulletproof jacket. Why are the attackers targeting Trump? In response to questions, Trump made a big statement, saying, “When you do world-changing work and are influential, you naturally become the target of some people.” He further said that if he was not doing anything, perhaps no one would have attacked him, but he accepts this ‘honor’ because it is proof of his dedication to his country. When he was asked whether this attack was related to the ongoing tension with Iran, Trump said that there is no concrete evidence at the moment, but the investigation is ongoing. ‘Crazy’ attacker of California arrested. FBI and local police have arrested 31-year-old Cole Thomas Allen, who is a resident of California, in this case. Trump described the attacker as a person with a ‘sick mentality’. It is noteworthy that this is the third time since the Butler attack of 2024 that an attempt has been made to attack Trump. After this latest incident, the debate on political violence in America has intensified and instructions have been given to further tighten the security of the President. Resolved to remain firm on the path of war, without fear of attack, Trump made it clear that such incidents cannot make him retreat from his goals. Specifically referring to the ongoing military campaign against Iran, ‘Operation Epic Fury’, he said that he will continue to take tough decisions for America’s security. Trump finally said, “They are trying to stop me, but I will not bow down. This fight is not for me, but for the future of America.”
