Trump’s Wednesday event is his second campaign rally since his second — albeit far less dramatic — assassination attempt on Sunday when a man was reportedly waiting for 12 hours in the woods with an AK-47 rifle near the former president’s Florida golf club. Here’s a glimpse of the scene outside the rally: A large flag outside Donald Trump’s rally in Uniondale, New York, shows what appears to be Jesus Christ hugging or peeling back an American flag. Next to the flag is a version of the iconic image of Trump after his first assassination attempt with what appears to be some kind of winged creature — perhaps an angel — hovering in the air above him, with the words “God Has Another Plan” across the bottom A Trump supporter stationed near a row of portable toilets holds a large poster depicting the former president — a 78-year-old man who struggles to drink water from a bottle — as a jacked, tatted-up and blinged-out hardbody with the words “it was God alone” forming a golden halo around his head. A pair of Trump supporters check out a “Jews for Trump” sequin jacket on sale outside the former president’s rally.
