| Johnson: Trump 'Seems to Have a Very Clear View of What This Meant. God Spared His Life.' |
| by Suzanne Bowdey |
| There may be a day in the distant future when we look back on the field in Butler, Pennsylvania and wonder if this is where everything changed. As it is, Americans woke up Sunday morning to a very different world. In the aftermath of Donald Trump's literal brush with death, campaigns, Congress, even political conventions seemed secondary to the deep horror at what we've become as a nation. And for once, after years of being at each others' throats, a sober country has stopped to reflect: Is this really who we are? |

| How Is Gen Z Responding to the Assassination Attempt? |
| by Sarah Holliday |
| They say, "hindsight is 20/20," and really, only time will tell just how Thomas Matthew Crooks's attempt to assassinate former President Donald Trump stirred (or hardened) the hearts of the American people. It would seem the immediate reactions are a mixed bag. In the most tragic of circumstances, some have heinously wished the bullet that grazed Trump's ear had taken his life. On the other hand, and arguably in the majority, are those who are indescribably grateful Trump walked away alive and well. These same people deeply sympathize with the family and friends of the man who "took Trump's bullet," Corey Comperatore. |

| Eerie Parallels: Trump's Shooting Echoes Teddy Roosevelt's in 1912 |

Then, a former saloonkeeper, John Schrank, pulled a Colt .38 revolver just about five feet away and shot Roosevelt in the chest. The bullet was blunted by a folded-up 50-page speech and a thick eyeglasses case. |
