Donald Trump held his first outdoor rally since the assassination attempt, speaking behind bulletproof glass. He criticized Biden and the Democrats, blaming them for the US's problems.

For the first time since the assassination attempt, Donald Trump spoke outdoors at a campaign rally in North Carolina. However, he spent the entire event under bulletproof glass. UNN writes about this with reference to Los Angeles Times.

Details

At his first outdoor rally since an assassination attempt last month, Donald Trump spoke from behind a podium surrounded by bulletproof glass that formed a protective wall across the stage - part of the increased security measures aimed at keeping Trump safe after the July 13 attack by a gunman from Pennsylvania.

Storage containers were stacked around the perimeter of the building to create additional walls and block sight lines, and snipers were stationed on the roofs.

In a speech in North Carolina, Trump blamed President Biden and Vice President Kamala Harris for the deadly withdrawal from Afghanistan, as well as the wars in Ukraine and the Middle East, repeatedly returning to the Democratic convention in Chicago, where speaker after speaker attacked Trump as a threat to the country if he returns to the White House.

The Republican candidate asked the crowd if they had seen the speeches delivered on Tuesday by former President Obama and former First Lady Michelle Obama.

He shot your president. And Michelle, too. You know, they always say: "Stick to the policy. Don't get personal." And yet they get personal

- He said.

Recall

In July, Kamala Harris's main fundraising group raised $204 million, while Donald Trump's campaign raised $48 million. This demonstrates the significant enthusiasm of voters ahead of the US presidential election.
