THE VILLAGES, FLORIDA: During a Florida rally, President Donald Trump claimed that he’s done “a lot of things that are impossible to do, like winning 3 races.” 

The Republican leader was in his home state on Friday, May 1, where he talked about the recent alleged assassination attempt on him, justified the Iran war, attacked Democrats, and deflected criticism of his economic record.

Trump praises himself for doing impossible things, like 'becoming president thrice'

Trump’s speech was also filled with jokes and light moments, as well as some false claims. Addressing the crowd, he reportedly hailed himself for lowering weight-loss drug prices.

“I do a lot of things that are impossible to do, like becoming president three times, like winning three races,” he asserted, referring to his claim of the 2020 rigged election.

The US commander-in-chief has continued to claim that it was he who actually won the 2020 presidential race despite the fact that the winner was former president Joe Biden.

Trump says there's nothing 'more secure than The Villages'

Also on Friday, Trump joked about being at The Villages despite last weekend’s security concerns after the White House Correspondents' Association (WHCA) dinner shooting by the suspect Cole Tomas Allen, who allegedly wanted to hurt the POTUS and his senior officials.

“They say on my life I should be indoors at a secure facility where I can quietly, beautifully, and safely play out my term. I said, what’s more secure than The Villages?” he quipped.

The 79-year-old leader then went on to praise the Florida community as “the single largest community of seniors anywhere in the world,” before jokingly saying, “I don’t happen to be a senior. I’m much younger than you. I’m a much younger man than you. Look at you, old guys. But I feel I can relate to you anyway.”

Trump calls trip with Dr Oz 'most boring'

Dr Mehmet Oz also became the target of Trump in a light-hearted moment during the rally.

The US leader said, “We have a man here who knows more about Medicaid, Medicare, medical crap than any human being.”



“It’s the most boring trip I’ve ever made. He’s telling me about Medicare and Medicaid. All I want to do is take care of you. I don’t care, I said, ‘You work out the details,’” Trump added.

Meanwhile, this was the first public appearance of Trump after the WHCD attack.



However, when Fox News’ Peter Doocy asked him before the rally if he “feel[s] safe going to something like this today?” he just simply replied, “I don’t even think about it, Peter.”
