I’m Supposed To Be Dead’ Trump Tells NYP After Assassination Bid
I’m not supposed to be here, I’m supposed to be dead,” Trump told the New York Post in an interview aboard his plane en route to Milwaukee for the Republican National Convention where he is set to be confirmed as the party’s presidential candidate.
It was a “very surreal experience” he said with a white bandage covering his right ear, the paper said.
A gunman hit him on Saturday in a chaotic and shocking incident set to supercharge political tensions ahead of the polarising US presidential election.
Hours after the incident, the Republican candidate said he felt the bullet rip through his skin.
