Not from the US and I don't understand why one would support a candidate just because he survived an assassination attempt. Can somebody explain the logic behind this?
I guess it made him look stronger or cooler or something. He'll probably also use this to say that Democrats are trying to kill him, insinuating that they don't mind killing people to achieve their goals.
Which is funny because killing people to achieve his goals is Trumps political platform.
It does seem weird that a felonious rapist would get a boost from not dying. Even more baffling that he’s likely a pedo.
But lying and spinning by a corrupt machine can go along way in a country full of ignorant assholes.
It's not a purely American phenomena. It paints a candidate in a human light, as they "survived" a very public "tragedy", yet are still strongly pursuing what they think is right.
It's a humanizing event.
This is not a pro trump comment.
Edit but this is certainly not a pro violence comment either

Reagans assassination attempt
The Republicans will fall in line behind their guy like they always do, despite their complaining

Depending on how the event is spun (story-wise), an attempt like this could make the other candidate's party seem unhinged enough that one of their members would do (and apparently fail badly at) this. This, making the target, and their party by association, seem more noble than thay may be.
To a lot of people, whether the shooting is or isn't affiliated doesn't really get questioned no matter what they hear, as what party would hurt itself? They'll immediately think there is some conspiracy (the human psychology loves these rabbit holes) to make it seem like any favoring affiliation to the target's political side is staged by the other.
Voting against the people who got their base that riled up
