Returning to the site where an attempted assassin’s bullet grazed his ear, former President Donald Trump got to finish what he started in July. “As I was saying,” Trump joked early in his speech to the crowd of thousands in Butler.

The rally marked the former president’s first visit back to Butler, Pennsylvania, since an assassination attempt was made on his life by a 20-year-old gunman.

Former President Donald Trump returned to Butler County on Saturday, fulfilling a pledge and providing over 20,000 of his supporters with a spectacle of patriotism and showmanship, as well as honoring the victims of the Trump rally shooting that occurred on that same ground less than three months earlier.
