WASHINGTON, D.C. – Republican National Committee
(RNC) Chairman Michael Whatley released the following statement on the one-year
anniversary of the assassination attempt on President Trump in Butler,
Pennsylvania:
“One year ago, America witnessed an attempt to
end President Trump’s life in Butler, Pennsylvania. By the grace of God
President Trump survived, and has been given the opportunity to serve God and
the United States as our 47th President. As we mark this anniversary, we
remember Corey Comperatore — the heroic husband, father, and firefighter who
lost his life while shielding his family from gunfire — and remain grateful
that President Trump survived. As we reflect on that day, we are reminded of
the enduring American values of faith, family, and freedom which unite us all.”
