After God, Americans are now thanking UFOs for saving Trump's life in assassination attempt
Screengrab of the viral video in which the UFO has been spotted.
United States former president Donald Trump is now safe and sound after the assassination attempt and the shooter has died long back, but the conspiracy theories don't seem to die anytime soon.
After claiming that some 'holy spirit' descended on the national flag of the country which had twisted minutes before the attack, the theorists have now taken the discussion further to the idea that some UFO or alien appeared just before the shooting and saved Trump's life.

A new footage has gone viral in which a flying disk has been spotted behind the flag, which many have claimed was an unidentified flying object (UFO) that made its appearance minutes before Trump was shot at the stage in the Pennsylvania rally on July 13.
In the viral video, a disc-like object is seen soaring in the sky behind the American flag just before bullets were fired.

Here's how social media users are reacting to the viral video
The UFO has been proclaimed as 'guardian angels' by some social media users who claimed that it protected Trump from the bullets. Days after the rally, Trump had also said, "God saved me".
A logical explanation was the discs spotted were drones surveilling the area, however, some reports claimed that there "were no Secret Service drones flying at the time."
"I'm not supposed to be here, I'm supposed to be dead. By luck or by God, many people are saying it's by God, I'm still here," Trump had said while speaking to the New York Post.

Some netizens have also claimed that they spotted the mysterious objects "briefly before and after the first shot on Trump."
"UFOs are always at Trump rallies, protecting him," said a user on X. Meanwhile, other users were not convinced that the objects were alien visitors and called the claims "god [expletive] funny".
Speaking to The Daily Star, UFO filmmaker Mark Christopher Lee said, "It sounds a bit out there but I do believe that this attempt may have been due to the fact that, if elected President again, Trump would release the full truth about UFOs."
Lee said that the US government has been hiding these facts since the insiders believe that the people of the country "would not be able to handle it."
