Former President Donald Trump set the tone for the final stretch of the presidential race when he took to the stage here in Butler, turning away from the crowd for the briefest of seconds, just as he did 12 weeks ago, and said, “As I was saying.”

Starting where he left off on July 13 before he was shot.

Those four words told everyone, perhaps even more so than when he raised his fist toward the crowd shouting, “Fight, Fight, Fight,” that he was a man who was not going to be knocked down, and was willing to leave everything on the field to take care of unfinished business in the White House.

In an interview with the Washington Examiner before the rally, Trump was somber in explaining how important it was to him to honor the family of Corey Comperatore, the former volunteer fire chief who was killed during the shooting in July.

Trump stressed that he really wanted to honor Corey and his family explaining in detail what would happen, “There will be a moment of silence, then one of the greatest opera singers in the world will sing Ave Maria.”

Trump looked somber for a moment talking about Corey, outside in the stands were Corey’s wife Helen and their daughters, a fallen comrade section where Corey was sitting that day stood as a sentinel to honor his life. I ask Trump if he felt emotional.   

“I do. I don’t want to think too much about it. Because it’s too tough. But I do,” he says, then returns to talking about Corey.

Before arriving on-site, Trump Force One, his private airplane, did a flyover of the Butler Farm Show Complex. He had already seen an aerial view of the massive crowd before landing. While he hoped for something big, he was a bit taken aback by the size of the crowd.

EXCERPT

I'll give the dude credit, when he's good, he's GOOD!
