President Donald Trump authored a post on Truth Social on Sunday that included a photo of the president posing in front of a large painting of the assassination attempt against his life in Butler, Pennsylvania, in 2024, after a wave of deadly shootings over the weekend.

Three mass shootings took place over the weekend. In Australia, two gunmen killed 15 people and wounded 40 others at a Hanukkah celebration outside of Sydney. Another gunman killed two students and wounded nine others at Brown University. Meanwhile, a shooter in Syria who is believed to be an ISIS infiltrator killed two American soldiers and one citizen.

Trump addressed the shootings during a speech he made at a Christmas party at the White House on Sunday.

“I want to pay my respects to the people,” Trumpo said during the speech, adding that the deceased were “looking down on us right now from heaven.”

A few hours after the speech, Trump posed in front of the painting of his assassination attempt, painted by Florida artist Marc Lipp.

"In the lobby of our beautiful White House!" the post reads.
