The suspect was given life in prison earlier this year. When asked about the multiple attempts on his life, Trump said assassins target "the most impactful people.""I hate to say I'm honored by that, but I've done a lot," he said.Zoom out: This was the first time Trump attended the White House Correspondents' Dinner after skipping the event during his first term.The Daily Beast had reported Trump intended to use his speech at the dinner to attack media outlets he believes have been unfair to his administration."I fought like hell to stay" after the attack, Trump said.
