Donald Trump sparks concerns as he makes end-of-life admission on live TV

President Donald Trump said he has people 'gunning' for him and doesn't know how long he'll be around during a speech at National Angel Family Day honoring victims killed by illegal aliens, days after a Mar-a-Lago security incident

US President Donald Trump acknowledged that he has people "gunning" for him during a speech at an event honoring Americans killed by "illegal aliens," hinting that his time may be limited.

In footage of the event shared on X by World Daily News, he stated: "I don't know how long I'll be around. Got lot of people gunning for me. But I will. I will not forget them. I'm never gonna forget them," referring to those being honored at the gathering.

Trump had designated February 22 as National Angel Family Day. The event marked the second anniversary of the murder of Georgia nursing student Laken Riley by Jose Ibarra, a Venezuelan national. The White House stated: "President Trump signed a proclamation designating February 22 as National Angel Family Day - a day of remembrance for victims and their grieving loved ones devastated by the consequences of open border policies."

The President's comments came just days after a fatal shooting involving a 21-year-old man who attempted to breach a secure perimeter at the Mar-a-Lago resort in West Palm Beach.

He was allegedly armed with a shotgun and a gas canister.

The incident occurred at approximately 1.30 am local time (6.30 am GMT).

It happened whilst President Trump was hundreds of miles away in Washington, having hosted a dinner at the White House, reports the Express.

The suspect was subsequently identified as Austin Tucker Martin, a 21-year-old from North Carolina, who officials confirmed had been reported missing after leaving his home several days prior. This most recent episode came on the heels of an assassination attempt in July 2024.

Thomas Matthew Crooks, 20, from Bethel Park, Pennsylvania, fired shots at a rally before being fatally shot by Secret Service on Saturday, July 13 of that year.

The attack happened mere days ahead of Trump formally accepting the Republican presidential nomination.

He sustained an ear wound and subsequently posted on social media that he had only made it through "thanks to God".

In a separate occurrence in September 2024, he was whisked away to safety by Secret Service personnel after gunfire rang out whilst he was playing golf on a Sunday afternoon.
