On August 21, US Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump held his first outdoor campaign rally in Asheboro, North Carolina, since his assassination attempt in July. Trump delivered his speech behind bulletproof glass, while snipers were positioned on nearby rooftops to ensure his safety. The US Secret Service began increasing security measures for Trump after the assassination attempt last month during a campaign rally in Pennsylvania. They started installing bulletproof glass around his podium during outdoor campaigns. Bulletproof glass is commonly used to protect sitting presidents. Other additional measures included increasing the number of Secret Service agents and certain technological changes. In his speech in North Carolina, Trump continued his attacks on Democratic candidate Kamala Harris, calling her a far-left figure. He also criticized NATO countries for not fully fulfilling their commitment to spend 2% of their GDP on security and defense in recent years. He reiterated that if he had been president, the Russia-Ukraine conflict would not have broken out. The former president asserted that if he were re-elected, America would be more prosperous.
