BREAKING NEWSMelania Trump Issues First Statement After Husband Donald's 'Heinous' Assassination Attempt: 'We're on the Brink of Devastating Change'
Melania Trump has spoken out after Donald Trump's attempted assassination.
The former First Lady shared a message on her social media platforms addressing what took place at the Pennsylvania rally.
Melania Trump spoke out after the incident.
"When I watched that violent bullet strike my husband, Donald, I realized my life, and Barron's life, were on the brink of devastating change," she said in her statement, calling what took place a "heinous" act. "I am grateful to the brave secret service agents and law enforcement officials who risked their own lives to protect my husband."
"Let us not forget that differing opinions, policy, and political games are inferior to love. Our personal, structural, and life commitment — until death — is at serious risk. Political concepts are simple when compared to us, human beings," Melania added.
Donald Trump was injured at his Pennsylvania rally.
"A monster who recognized my husband as an inhuman political machine attempted to ring out Donald's passion, his laughter, ingenuity, love of music, and inspiration. The core facets of my husband's life — his human side — were buried below the political machine. Donald, the generous and caring man who I have been with through the best of times and the worst of times," the mother-of-one explained.
"The winds of change have arrived," Melania noted. "For those of you who cry in support, I thank you. I commend those of you who have reached out beyond the political divide — thank you for remembering that every single politician is a man or a woman with a loving family."
Melania Trump and Donald Trump have been married since 2005.

"I knew immediately that something was wrong in that I heard a whizzing sound, shots, and immediately felt the bullet ripping through the skin. Much bleeding took place, so I realized then what was happening. GOD BLESS AMERICA!"
