Former US President and 2024 presidential candidate Donald Trump claimed that he was saved by God's 'supernatural hand' from an assassination attempt in Butler on July 13. He also stated during a campaign rally in Concord, North Carolina on Monday that his opponent, Vice President Kamala Harris, is 'very destructive to Christianity'.

"And my faith took on new meaning on July 13 in Butler, Pennsylvania, where I was knocked to the ground, essentially, by what seemed like a supernatural hand," he stated. "And I would like to think that God saved me for a purpose, and that's to make our country greater than ever before."

During the rally in Butler, PA, Trump was seen with blood on his face after a bullet grazed his ear. He raised his fist to the crowd and shouted 'fight' as the Secret Service moved him to the motorcade.

The assailant, Thomas Matthew Crooks, was shot dead by Secret Service agents at the scene. Another attendee was also killed during the rally by the gunman.

Trump continued by condemning Harris of being 'very destructive to religion', stating that, "she is your worst nightmare, much worse, much worse than Biden, and he wasn't so hot. But while Kamala says that people who believe in Jesus don't belong to her rallies, you have to remember that that's as loud as it can be."

The former president was referring to Harris' seemingly mockery of two students shouting "Jesus is Lord" and "Christ is King" in her rally at the University of Wisconsin on Thursday.

"Oh you guys are at the wrong rally, no, I think you meant to go to the smaller one down the street," Harris told them, before the students were sent off the rally.

"As soon as I take the oath of office, I will stop Kamala Harris' weaponisation of law enforcement against Americans of faith," Trump added in his remarks.

During the rally, the Republican candidate also vowed to stand 'proudly with our friend and ally, the State of Israel,' mentioning the American Embassy that he built in Jerusalem in 2019 despite calls from 'heads of states', 'kings and prime ministers' to 'don't do it.'

Trump in addition cast his doubt on Harris' ability to 'deal with' state leaders like China's Xi Jinping and Russia's Vladimir Putin, claiming that 'we will have a Third World War out of stupidity.'

Trump and Harris face off in the presidential election on November 5. The latest polls suggest the key seven 'swing states' likely to decide the race are extremely close, with neither candidate having a decisive lead.
