Former President Trump invoked the highly anticipated solar eclipse in a new campaign video posted late Sunday night.
The video posted on Truth Social opens with footage of the sun before cutting to crowds of people wearing protective eclipse glasses and looking up at the sky. The screen reads, “The most important moment in human history is taking place in 2024.”
The video then shows more people appearing to view a solar eclipse before Trump’s shadow appears to cover the sun, creating an eclipse with the former president’s silhouette while people cheer.
The caption then reads, “We will save America and make it great again,” before closing the video with people chanting “USA.”
The following day, Hillary Clinton, Trump’s former opponent, reshared a photo of Trump appearing to look directly at a solar eclipse in 2017 without protective eclipse glasses. NASA has warned people to not look directly at the sun during the eclipse without wearing the proper glasses.
Millions of people across 13 states will be in the path of the total eclipse on Monday, with many others also being able to view a partial eclipse in other parts of the country.
