PNN – The Sky news channel considered the effect of the second assassination attempt on the life of “Donald Trump”, the candidate of the Republican Party for the 2024 US presidential election, to be negative on the results of these competitions and his possible victory, and added: This cannot strengthen his position.
According to the report of Pakistan News Network from this English news channel, while there are only seven weeks left until the day of the presidential election in the United States, the question has been raised, how the second attempt on Trump’s life can affect this event and how voters may react?
Yesterday, the US Federal Bureau of Investigation called the shooting near Trump’s golf club an “assassination attempt” and US agencies announced the arrest of a suspect named Ryan Wesley Roth.
After this incident, Trump announced in an email: Several shots were fired near me. Before the rumors get out of control, I want you to hear first that I am safe and sound. I will never give up. He then returned to his mansion in Maralago, Florida.

This news channel reminds that Trump was shot and wounded 64 days ago in an election rally in Pennsylvania. But now, just seven weeks before the election day, the question has been raised as to how another security flaw could overshadow the election. Especially since within hours of the second assassination attempt, messages with links to donations were sent to his supporters, and the words Trump used in the email to describe his situation were circulating.
After the shooting in Butler, Pennsylvania, the images of him in the media with clenched fists while his ear was bleeding, tried to portray him as a strong man, unlike the sick Joe Biden.
After the first attempt to assassinate Trump, he led in all seven swing states and many considered him the winner of the election. But now the competition has changed. Kamala Harris is his rival instead of Biden, and the distance between him and Trump in the polls has narrowed and he is leading in some key states.
Sky News then raised another point; That Trump made no mention of his assassination attempt in last week’s debate with Harris. Because historical experience shows that the use of such events can have the opposite result in strengthening the face of an election candidate.
This media then points to Gerald Ford, one of the presidents of the United States, who was targeted by two assassinations in a little more than two weeks in 1975. He became a little more popular after he announced that he does not shy away from being in public like Trump. But only a short time later, his popularity dropped below the pre-assassination level and he eventually lost the result to his rival.
