Kid Rock, Jeff Bezos and world leaders voice support for Trump after assassination attempt

More people have condemned the violence former President Donald Trump faced on Saturday after surviving an assassination attempt, expressing their relief that he is OK.

Musician Kid Rock, a known supporter of the former president, posted a video on X warning his followers, “You f*** with Trump, you f*** with me.” The musician has also shared a GoFundMe fundraiser on his social media, which has raised over $1.9 million to support the victims of the shooting.

Amazon founder Jeff Bezos has expressed his sorrow for the victims, and has also expressed his gratitude for Trump’s safety, writing on X that the former president showed “tremendous grace and courage under literal fire.”

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has also issued his own statement regarding Trump’s failed assassination, calling the attempt at Trump’s life both “an attack on America” and “an attack on democracy.”

“On behalf of myself, my family, the government and people of Israel, we wish President Trump a speedy recovery, continued good health, and continued strength,” Netanyahu said in a video posted to X.

“Biden tells us to trust the bureaucracy to investigate the assassin’s motive. But the feds categorized the crazed, leftist congressional baseball shooter as “suicide by cop” — even though the shooter had a well-documented left-wing political bent and made sure that the players on the field were Republicans before attacking,” Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis posted on X. “And there does need to be an investigation regarding the security protocols used in Butler. The answer to the following question must be provided in short order: how did someone, armed with a rifle, get on top of a roof 150 yards away from the stage? DC bureaucratic failures almost never result in any accountability; this time needs be to be different. Our country is in the peril its in partly because the DC ruling class has consistently evaded responsibility for its failures,”

“I am appalled to learn about the shooting of former U.S. President Donald Trump at his rally in Pennsylvania. Such violence has no justification and no place anywhere in the world. Never should violence prevail. I am relieved to learn that Donald Trump is now safe and wish him a speedy recovery. My condolences go out to the close ones of this attack’s victim, a rally attendee. I extend my wishes for strength to everyone who is horrified by this event. I wish America emerges stronger from this,” Ukraine President Volodymyr Zelensky wrote.

“I’m sickened by the shooting at former President Trump. It cannot be overstated — political violence is never acceptable. My thoughts are with former President Trump, those at the event, and all Americans,” Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau posted on X.
