Exclusive: Rep. Jim Banks Says Trump ‘Stronger’ from Endless Attempts to Undermine Him — ‘He’s Not Backing Down’

Former President Donald Trump has only become “stronger” from the various attempts to undermine him over time, according to Republican Congressman Jim Banks of Indiana, who praised the 45th president’s resilience following Saturday’s assassination attempt. Banks emphasized the need for strong leadership “our nation desperately needs” and insisted Trump is “not backing down.”

In an exclusive statement to Breitbart News on Sunday, Rep. Banks commended the former president’s unwavering strength and determination in the face of an assassination attempt that left the nation reeling, describing Saturday as a “dark day” as a gunman sought to assassinate Trump during a rally in Butler County, Pennsylvania.

“Yesterday’s assassination attempt was a dark day,” he stated. “But in that moment, President Trump showed strength that our nation desperately needs in our leader.” 

Rep. Banks also commended Trump for remaining resolute despite the numerous attempts to undermine him.

“They’ve tried to impeach him, bankrupt him, throw him in jail, and now a coward tried to kill him,” he said, “but it’s only made him stronger and he’s not backing down.”

The attack, which resulted in injuries to several individuals and the tragic loss of former Pennsylvania fire chief Corey Comperatore, has intensified the political climate. 

Rep. Banks concluded by extending his condolences to Comperatore’s family while expressing his prayers for all those affected by the violent incident.

“I’m praying for the family of Corey Comperatore and all those who were hurt in this vicious attack,” he stated.

Rep. Banks has long warned of attempts to prevent Trump’s return.

He previously criticized Biden for his refusal to declare as terrorists those “who murder Americans” and “threaten to assassinate former Trump officials on U.S. soil” after his administration proposed waiving sanctions on at least 80,000 members of the Islamic Revolutionary Guards Corps (IRGC), a paramilitary force that has killed hundreds of Americans and waged terror attacks across the Middle East.

On Saturday evening, Trump was injured and rushed off stage by the U.S. Secret Service in Butler, Pennsylvania, after shots were fired at him.

The attempt on the former president’s life has sparked widespread condemnation, with calls for increased security measures for public figures and a reevaluation of radical political rhetoric.
