History says Trump will now definitely return to the White House. The publication noted that this is the first serious attempt to assassinate an American president since Ronald Reagan was shot in March 1981.
The constant threat of death is something of an occupational hazard for American commanders in chief, and four sitting presidents have been subjected to it. But there is no denying that this incident will impact the current presidential race, the article says.
Thus, The Telegraph noted that Trump can count on an increase in poll results, and Saturday’s assassination attempt will only strengthen his support. A few months after Reagan was shot, the newly elected Republican president has risen by eight points.
Polls already suggest Trump is likely to return to the presidency in November after a terrible few months for his opponent and a criminal record that has done little to hurt his popularity. And recent events will only boost his support, the article noted.
The publication also emphasized that the attempt on Trump’s life is a vivid reminder of how “one innovative moment can turn an already turbulent campaign upside down,” and that “all doubts that Trump will win the current election are now receding.”
