Wounded Trump had an opportunity to divide but heroically chose to unify [Video]

Former President Trump could have used the assassination attempt against him to further divide a politically fractured nation, but he instead chose to try to unify by exhibiting strength and offering an inclusive RNC message, the GOP congressional candidate running in the shooter’s home district said.

James Hayes, the son of a steelworker who went on to work for the Richmond Federal Reserve before returning to Pittsburgh, said his community is still reeling from both the assassination attempt and the discovery that shooter Thomas Crooks lived there.

Hayes, running against “Squad” member Rep. Summer Lee, D-Pa., said it is “unimaginable” that the incident would involve a community like Bethel Park.

“It’s a very conservative group of people that just absolutely love America. They’re very patriotic. And for someone to come out of that area and be the shooter is just unbelievable for all of us,” Hayes said.
