**Trump Holds First Rally After Apparent Assassination Attempt** In his first rally since the recent assassination attempt, Donald Trump addressed supporters in New York, claiming that divine intervention played a role in his survival. He expressed that these "encounters with death" have only made him stronger. **Why New York?** Despite Kamala Harris holding a significant lead in the state, Long Island has shifted politically to the right in recent years, making it a strategic choice for Trump. **What’s Iran’s Role?** Intelligence officials suggest that Iran may be opposed to Trump’s re-election, fearing that his return to power could escalate tensions between the U.S. and Tehran. Trump's rally marks a significant moment as he continues to rally support amidst ongoing challenges.
