How the Attempted Assassination of Trump Affected the Electoral Process

As reactions condemning the shooting of former U.S. President Donald Trump during a campaign rally on Saturday continue, attention turns to the electoral process. A correspondent for "Al Arabiya/Al Hadath" reported on Sunday that a fundamental shift has occurred in the coverage of the U.S. elections following the assassination attempt on Trump. The incident, which took place at 6 PM local time on Saturday, has significantly altered the course of the electoral process.

Furthermore, it was noted that Americans are now prepared to accompany Trump to Milwaukee, where he will officially announce his candidacy for the Republican Party to become the 47th President of the United States. Such events typically involve heightened security measures, and it is confirmed that these measures will increase significantly following the assassination attempt.

Additionally, the correspondent stated that these security protocols will undoubtedly affect media coverage, making it very difficult. It was also highlighted that sources mentioned Trump himself expressed concerns for his safety due to the risk of an assassination attempt before the incident occurred.

It is worth noting that Trump survived an assassination attempt on Saturday evening during a campaign rally in Pennsylvania. Trump's campaign announced on Saturday that he will attend the Republican National Convention next week. The campaign's statement indicated that President Trump looks forward to joining everyone in Milwaukee to move forward with his nomination for the 47th President of the United States. Since the announcement of the assassination attempt, support for the former president has poured in.
