Donald Trump holds first rally since assassination attempt | BBC News

Donald Trump has held his first rally since an attempt was made on his life – and the first with his new running mate JD Vance.

The Republican presidential nominee told the thousands of attendees in Michigan that he “took a bullet for democracy”, and to huge applause, said he was ready to "take back the White House".

An investigation is under way into the shooting last weekend, which left Trump with a wounded ear - though the prominent white bandage he wore throughout the Republican National Convention had on Saturday been replaced by a discreet flesh-toned plaster.
