They spied on him, accused him of being a Russian spy, impeached him twice, worked with Democrat operatives to change the law and allow a decades old sexual assault claim to move forward, tried to bankrupt his company, indicted him five times, tried to remove him from the ballot, and have now tried to kill him twice.

Trump Issues Defiant Response to Second Assassination Attempt: 'I Will NEVER Surrender'
Former President Donald Trump has released an official statement following the second failed attempt to assassinate him, declaring his love for his supporters and reassuring them he will “never surrender.”
Secret Service agents thwarted the assassination attempt against the 45th president on Sunday after shots were fired at his Trump International Golf Course near West Palm Beach, Florida.
The former president was playing golf when an armed suspect was spotted approaching his position.
The shooter opened fire first.
The Secret Service returned fire.
The same day, Trump released an official statement on the shooting.
“There were gunshots in my vicinity, but before rumors start spiraling out of control, I wanted you to hear this first: I AM SAFE AND WELL!” Trump wrote.
“Nothing will slow me down. I will NEVER SURRENDER!
“I will always love you for supporting me.”
The suspect shooter, 58-year-old Ryan Wesley Routh, was apprehended after fleeing the scene, local ABC affiliate WPLG reported.
Local authorities pulled the suspect over after receiving witness descriptions.
“There was a lone driver in the vehicle. That driver is now in custody,” Snyder said.
The would-be assassin appeared to have exploited a vulnerable part of the property’s perimeter to gain access.
Wesley Routh ran out of the bushes before escaping in a black vehicle.
He was later arrested in Martin County.
Trump later took to social media, thanking those concerned and law enforcement, adding, “It was certainly an interesting day!”
“I would like to thank everyone for your concern and well wishes — It was certainly an interesting day!” Trump wrote on Truth Social.
“Most importantly, I want to thank the U.S. Secret Service, Sheriff Ric Bradshaw and his Office of brave and dedicated Patriots, and, all of Law Enforcement, for the incredible job done today at Trump International in keeping me, as the 45th President of the United States, and the Republican Nominee in the upcoming Presidential Election, SAFE,” Trump continued.
“THE JOB DONE WAS ABSOLUTELY OUTSTANDING. I AM VERY PROUD TO BE AN AMERICAN!” Trump concluded in his post.
As The Daily Fetched reported, Trump narrowly survived an assassination attempt while delivering his remarks during a campaign rally in Butler, Pennsylvania, on July 13.
Last month, Senator Ron Johnson (R-WI) accused the FBI and Secret Service of “slow walking” the investigation, saying, “We’re not getting squat from my standpoint from the Secret Service or FBI.”
The FBI’s decision to cremate would-be Trump assassin Thomas Matthew Crooks’ body before an autopsy could be carried out was described as”jaw-dropping” by many critics.
