As he revisited the venue, Trump timed the moment he was shot and began his speech exactly at 6:11 p.m. when he was shot on July 13. Before resuming he also held a moment of silence for those who lost their lives while attending the rally. Trump began by saying, "Over the past eight years, those who want to stop us from achieving this future have slandered me, impeached me, indicted me, tried to throw me off the ballot, and who knows? Maybe even try to kill me. Twelve weeks ago we all took a bullet for America."
I like the fact Elon jumps around like a kid and posts stupid funny memes. It makes him relatable and likeable.
