Donald Trump returns to the political stage with a huge bandage on his head after dodging an assassin's bullet by millimeters: Cheering crowds at the Republican National Convention chant 'fight, fight, fight' leaving the ex-president emotional

Donald Trump was greeted with chants of 'fight, fight, fight,' as he strode into the Republican convention on Saturday less than three days after he survived an assassination attempt. The former president wore a bandage on his right ear where the bullet fired by Thomas Matthew Crooks ripped through his skin. It could have been his wake, but after officially securing his nomination and anointing Sen. J.D. Vance as his running mate, Trump arrived for a celebration. His supporters echoed the fighting words he used on Saturday when he picked himself up from the ground, his face bloodied. This time he walked to the 'family suite' of oversized armchairs, surrounded by the royal family of MAGA: Vance, his sons Eric and Don Jr. (who had tears in his eyes), daughter Tiffany, former Fox news anchor Tucker Carlson and other senior Republicans.
