Donald Trump raised-fist photographs 

On July 13, 2024, Evan Vucci, an American photojournalist, captured a series of photographs of Donald Trump—then a former president of the United States and the presumptive nominee of the Republican Party in the 2024 presidential election—raising his right fist with blood on his face, moments after Trump was shot during an assassination attempt at a political rally near Butler, Pennsylvania. In some photos, Trump's mouth is open as he chants "Fight!", while it is closed in others.

The photographs, taken by Vucci for the Associated Press, were widely shared on social media and received substantial press coverage. Their composition, featuring a prominent American flag behind Trump, was praised by commentators, who compared Vucci's photographs to several other iconic historical images and predicted that they would come to represent Trump and his 2024 election victory.

Donald Trump, then a former president of the United States who was the presumptive nominee of the Republican Party in the 2024 United States presidential election, held a rally for his presidential campaign near Butler, Pennsylvania, on July 13, 2024.^[1][2][3] Shortly after the rally began, Thomas Matthew Crooks opened fire at Trump in an assassination attempt;^[4] Trump survived, though his ear was injured by a bullet, bloodying his face.^[4][5][6]

Evan Vucci, the chief photojournalist of the Associated Press (AP) in Washington, D.C., was one of four photographers stationed in a buffer area near the stage where Trump spoke during the rally.^[5][7] Vucci had covered Trump since 2015 and had photographed hundreds of political rallies.^[5][8][9] He previously covered the War in Afghanistan and the Iraq War,^[5][8][10] and he took a well-known 2008 photograph of an Iraqi journalist throwing his shoes at then-U.S. president George W. Bush.^[4][10] In 2021, he won the Pulitzer Prize for Breaking News Photography as part of an AP team covering the George Floyd protests.^[1][7][11]

After shots began to be fired at the rally, Vucci saw United States Secret Service agents in Trump's security detail rush towards the former president, so he ran to find a better vantage point and began photographing.^[1][4][5][7] He later recounted that he "knew right away" that it was an attempt to assassinate Trump,^[8] and that "it was a moment in American history and it had to be documented".^[1][6] Vucci further recounted:

It was a situation where that vast experience absolutely does [prepare you]. To have that experience behind you sort of allows you to remain calm. ... In my head, I just kept saying to myself, 'slow down, slow down. Compose, compose.' Okay, what's gonna happen next? What's going on here? What's going on there? Just trying to get every angle on it.^[8]
