The former president has told the New York Post newspaper that his assassination attempt was a “very surreal experience”.
“I’m not supposed to be here, I’m supposed to be dead,” Trump told the Post in an interview while on board his plane en route to Milwaukee for the Republican National Convention.
The 78-year-old praised Secret Service agents for killing the attacker, saying “they took him out with one shot right between the eyes”.
The image of Trump raising a defiant fist as Secret Service agents bundled him away made front pages around the world and spread virally on social media.
“A lot of people say it’s the most iconic photo they’ve ever seen,” the former president told the Post, adding “They’re right and I didn’t die. Usually you have to die to have an iconic picture.”
