Former President Donald Trump was subjected to an assassination attempt, resulting in a slight wound to his ear during a rally in Pennsylvania. This event could definitively tilt the presidential race in Trump's favor.
The iconic image of a bleeding Trump has catapulted his political figure, potentially influencing undecided votes in his favor.
The reaction to the assassination attempt provoked unanimous condemnations, which potentially adds to his image of 'political martyr'.
The assassination attempt revealed security failures, leading to criticism of the security services. The shooter, a young Republican, was shot down by security services.
Trump's figure has been magnified as a result of this event, presenting himself now as a victim, which may influence undecided voters and could lead the Republicans to gain the majority in Congress.
Conclusion: The event could be a devastating blow for the Democrats, who now have to readjust to the new political landscape. Pressure on Biden will increase while the climate of polarization and tension in the United States will grow, especially if Trump returns to presidency.
