Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump opened his acceptance speech on the Republican National Convention’s final

Republican presidential candidate former President Donald Trump speaks during the Republican National Convention on Thursday, July 18, 2024, in Milwaukee.

"It was a warm, beautiful day in the early evening in Butler Township in the great Commonwealth of Pennsylvania. "When I heard a loud whizzing sound and felt something hit me really, really hard on my right ear. I said to myself, ‘Wow, What was that?’ It can only be a bullet, and moved my right hand to my ear, brought it down, my hand was covered with blood. Just absolutely blood, all over the place. I immediately knew it was very serious that we were under attack. And in one movement, proceeded to drop to the ground.

"But that isn't the reason that they didn't move. The reason is that they knew I was in very serious trouble. They saw it. They saw me go down. They saw the blood and thought, actually most did, that I was dead. They knew it was a shot to the head. They saw the blood. And there's an interesting statistic, the ears are the bloodiest part. If something happens with the ears, they bleed more than any other part of the body. For whatever reason, the doctors told me that.

“En la Eurocopa 2020, la Unión Europea impuso a todos los capitanes de selecciones nacionales llevar el distintivo lgtb. Pero Cristiano fue el único capitán de la Euro que se negó y no llevo el cintillo lgtb”.
