Donald Trump's speech at the Capitol. “They wanted to take my life”
He stated that "for the last 8 years he has been tested and tested more than any president in our 250-year history." I learned a lot along the way. The journey to regain our republic was not easy, he added. He suggested that his political opponents "want to take his freedom and even his life."
— Only a fewer months ago in a beautiful field in Pennsylvania, the bomber's bullet pierced my ear, but then I felt and believe, and now even more that my life was saved for any reason, I was saved by God to make America large again," said president Donald Trump.
Those words were followed by applause.
