Reflecting on the incident from the evening prior, Donald was asked how he dealt with her birthday “after what happened last night.”

“Well, it was… Yeah, by the time we get back here, it’s like around 12:00, and I said, ‘Happy birthday, darling,’ ” he shared, explaining that they arrived back at the White House right around the start of her special day.

His remarks on 60 Minutes came after Donald said that the shooting had been a “rather traumatic experience” for his first lady during a press conference.

“Melania was cognizant,” he said, via People.

He added, “The first lady was doing a terrific job. She loves the country. She recognizes it better than any. But she told me numerous times, she said, ‘You are in a dangerous job.’ ”

Cole Allen, the suspect behind the alleged assassination attempt, was charged at an arraignment on Monday (April 27).
