Whether one likes Trump or not, it's sad in our society a presidential candidate is fired upon. It makes me wonder what the Secret Service was doing and exactly who's behind these attempts, and why? It also makes me wonder why anybody would be happy at an attempt on someone's life.
Thank you for sharing this contest entry with us and good luck with the contest.

Americans seem to need guns. We don't. The assassin was in plain sight and should have been dealt with. Thanks for reading. K xx
Comment from Sanku
But he was right in his belief that he is invincible. the bullet miraculously grazed over his ear .A grazed ear is now like a statement for him that goes brandishing arounf .the sad part is that people also wore the ear band emulating him .what a shame!

Even worse today; had a racial slur at Kamala Harris. Her mother Jamaican and father indian. Trump will turn people away, especially coloured folks. You live on and Island, yes? Kay xx

I live in India. Kamala Harris ' mother in Indian (A hindu brahmin ) coming from my city . her father is jamaican I think..

Namastay! Yes, her father is Jamaican. Trump really put his foot in it having a go at Kamala's origins. K xx

True to life words about a recent event. Yes,he has a pierced ear now. Good entry and short poem for the contest. It is more difficult to create short poems.

Hi Elaine, Yes, it's a silly amount of words, it isn't a poem, rather a statement. Thanks for reading and hope you are well? K xx
Comment from Debbie D'Arcy
No one could dispute any of this 6 word verse, Kay. Certainly mouthing off as is his wont, shots fired and the slightest of injury, probably from something less dramatic than a bullet. But he will change the truth of that to his own advantage. A shame that he thinks this is the iconic image to get him the presidency. Well done and good luck! Debbiexx

Hi Debbie, Thanks for reading. I couldn't help the subject. Quote: I took a bullet for democracy! He said, what a lot of rot. K xx
Comment from Michael Ludwinder
I thought you did a wonderful job of sharing the intense nature of the attempt on his life. You share with each comma break a moment in this terrible attempt. Very creative use of 8 words!

Hey Michael, Thanks for reading. I wouldn't call it a poem. Rather a statement. Then he said he took a bullet for democracy. I think he had his ear pierced.

Comment from lyenochka
I heard that the ear injury wasn't due to the bullet as previously reported but due to shrapnel.
His inflammatory rhetoric has caused so much division and attacks on Asian Americans.
But I do pray that he will repent and humble himself before the Lord.
You chose quite a controversial topic for your poem for the contest.

He won't repent, he thinks he is Jesus, as he said in court. I wonder what he would be like if he wasn't a billionaire? T for Trump and T for trouble. K xx
