Former President Donald Trump held his first outdoor rally since surviving an assassination attempt last month. The event took place at the North Carolina Aviation Museum in Asheboro, where Trump delivered his speech from behind bulletproof glass, a security measure implemented by the Secret Service. During the rally, Trump paused his speech to check on a supporter who had passed out in the crowd, leaving the safety of the bulletproof enclosure to assist the individual. The assassination attempt occurred on July 13th.
