“Dawn is Here”: Melania and Trump Kids Share Incredible, Heartfelt Messages in Wake of Assassination Attempt

Ivanka Trump, daughter of the former president and one who was involved in his first administration but evidently will not be involved in his next administration, if he wins in November, which right now appears likely, thanked those who were praying for her father in the wake of the shooting and thanked the first responders who handled the situation.

In her statement on X, she wrote, “Thank you for your love and prayers for my father and for the other victims of today’s senseless violence in Butler, Pennsylvania. I am grateful to the Secret Service and all the other law enforcement officers for their quick and decisive actions today. I continue to pray for our country. I love you Dad, today and always.”

Similarly, Donald Trump Jr., the eldest son of the former president and the child who is much more active in his political efforts, spoke about the situation in a statement to Fox News Digital, saying that his dad is in good spirits and ready to keep fighting for America. He said, “I just spoke to my father on the phone and he is in great spirits. He will never stop fighting to save America, no matter what the radical left throws at him.”

Also joining in was his wife, Melania, who has been less involved with his campaign. She said, “I am thinking of you, now, my fellow Americans. We have always been a unique union. America, the fabric of our gentle nation is tattered, but our courage and common sense must ascend and bring us back together as one. When I watched that violent bullet strike my husband, Donald, I realized my life, and Barron’s life, were on the brink of devastating change. I am grateful to the brave secret service agents and law enforcement officials who risked their own lives to protect my husband.”
