Former President Donald Trump was the target of an assassination attempt at a political rally on Saturday, July 13. The shooter narrowly missed Trump’s head, grazing his ear, and killing one innocent bystander in the crowd. President Trump was escorted off the stage by Secret Service members.

The country music singer continued, “God has a bigger plan for you my friend and I think we all know what that is by now. My heart goes out to the (victim’s) families as well. They are the ones left to pick up the pieces of this cowardly act.”
