Speakers aren't identified, so a voice in it may not be his: > Three days ago, there was yet another assassination attempt on my life, I didn't know I was going to say no to that. It was the second one in eight weeks by a violent radical left mobster. This evil would-be assassin got within a few hundred yards of where I stood, but thankfully, our outstanding Secret Service agent, and they are outstanding, spotted the barrel of his rifle in the bushes. Can you believe that? Can you believe that? He saw a barrel of a big, big, this was a big barrel. This was a big, this you don't want to even talk about, AK-47. But he saw the barrel coming out a little bit out of the very lush bushes, and he took fast action to stop the gunman before I even entered the line of sight. And I want to express my thanks to the U.S. Secret Service, who was there that day, and to all of the sheriffs and law enforcement down in Florida, the heroes who helped to apprehend the attacker. And by the way, you possibly heard the story. So the secret agent, service agent, pulled out the gun and started shooting. He said a barrel, he didn't talk like a lot of people, they talk. How are you, sir? What would you like to talk about? Would you like to talk about the weather? No, he pulled out the gun and he started shooting at him. And the villain... No, but think of this, this could only happen with a woman, because men aren't smart enough, I hate to tell you fellas. So he dropped his gun, his car was a block away, and he started running because they had him. And he was running, running, running. And a woman driving a car innocently said, "He looks like a bad person to me. He looks very suspicious." And she followed him and pulled up to the back of the car and started taking pictures of his license plate. Do you believe that? And she took the pictures of his license plate, perfect beautiful pictures like a professional photographer, and sent them to the sheriff and said, "I just looked at a man, there was something strange going on. Who the hell would do that?" Right? Only a woman, only a woman. And I asked the sheriff today, I said, "So sheriff, if you had a thousand events, how many people would have done that?" Man or woman, how many people would have done that? Followed him taking pictures of the license plate and also the type of truck that he was driving. He said, "Maybe none." So she's a hero, I got to meet her. Because of that, they were then able to catch him in a very speedy drive down the various highways in Florida, but they got him and they got him fast, but I think it's incredible. So the agent and that wonderful woman. And with all of my heart, I thank you all for your incredible valor. What you've done is incredible. What the people of our country and law enforcement does in this country is incredible. ## Engagement - Likes: 0 - Reposts: 0 - Replies: 0 - Views: unknown - Metrics collected: 2026-02-01T01:19:51.334Z (UTC) # Analysis _No analysis has been generated for this post._ Analysis for other posts is at https://trump.fm/post/{id}/analysis. ## Citation - APA: Trump, D.
