A slight turn of his head meant the difference between life and death, former President Donald Trump said in a Monday interview that was published just 36 hours after he survived an assassination attempt at a rally in Pennsylvania.

“The most incredible thing was that I happened to not only turn but to turn at the exact right time and in just the right amount,” former President Trump told the Washington Examiner Sunday while on his private jet as he flew to Milwaukee ahead of the Republican National Convention.
