Merchandise promoting former President Donald Trump surviving his assassination attempt is already on sale, mere days after the attempt on Trump’s life occurred.
This new merch, which is being sold by independent vendors with no affiliation to Trump’s campaign, all feature the Republican presidential nominee raising his fist as he is surrounded by Secret Service members after he narrowly survived the shooting. One shirt, showing the now-iconic photo with the phrase “Trump 2024” under it, made its way to the top rank of Amazon’s “Men’s Novelty T-Shirts” category on Monday.
Countless other listings for shirts featuring the photo are also on sale, some of which describe the former president as “bulletproof.” A coffee mug listing that reads, “Not today! You can’t kill freedom 2024,” is also listed for sale on the website.
Trump’s campaign has, however, updated its campaign shop to sell “Trump Vance” shirts and hats, a reference to Trump’s newly selected running mate, Sen. J.D. Vance (R-OH). One listing does show Trump raising his fist while wearing his iconic “Make America Great Again” hat, with the words “fear not” written underneath the photo.

In the wake of surviving his assassination attempt, Trump revealed to the Washington Examiner’s Salena Zito that he has rewritten his speech for the Republican National Convention to focus on unity within the country. The presidential candidate is set to deliver this speech on Thursday night.
President Joe Biden, Trump’s expected opponent in the 2024 presidential election, has asked the country to “lower the temperature in politics” after Trump was nearly killed at his Pennsylvania rally. Biden has also regretted a statement he made calling for Trump to be placed in the “bullseye,” stating in a new interview that “it was a mistake to use the word.”
