Donald Trump Concerned After Assassination Attempts: ‘I Have to Worry About Family’
It’s a heck of a thing, to be in a line of endeavor that may not only place one’s self in danger but also one’s family. That is, nonetheless, the position former (and, we can hope, future) President Donald Trump finds himself in today. In an interview airing Saturday evening, Fox News host Brian Kilmeade spoke with the former President, who, in the wake of two assassination attempts, is worried about his family. Fox News host Brian Kilmeade’s brand-new interview with former President Donald Trump will be appearing exclusively on “One Nation,” Saturday night. In the interview, Trump candidly responded to whether he worries about the safety of his family: “I don’t talk about it, but I do. I have to worry about family. I have to worry about everybody.”
If anything, that’s an understatement. Donald Trump has survived two assassination attempts; one, literally by a whisker. His family, many of whom do not have the benefit of an assigned Secret Service detail, are very likely to be targeted as well. It’s wrong; it’s atrocious, in the original sense of the word. But that doesn’t mean it may not happen.
Brian Kilmeade also asked the former President about his campaign and the upcoming vice-presidential debate.
The “Fox & Friends” co-host got a chance to speak to the 45th president during the final stretch of his presidential campaign, where they talked about his running mate Sen. JD Vance’s, R-Ohio, upcoming vice-presidential debate with Gov. Tim Walz, D-Minn., the second assassination attempt against him, and the dangers of another four years under Vice President Kamala Harris’ leadership.
“Look, we’re under siege and no country has ever suffered like we have for the last three-and-a-half, almost four years,” Trump told Kilmeade, mentioning the threats posed by record high illegal immigration allowed under the Biden/Harris administration which he believes will continue if the vice president wins the White House. Illegal immigration is a drum that Trump keeps beating, and with good reason. It may well be because of that, in part, that he has been targeted, and why he rightly worries about his family being likewise targeted. But that targeting isn’t all about Trump’s policy positions. It’s about the man himself.
