President Donald Trump took time Thursday morning to mourn the victims of the American Airlines and Black Hawk helicopter collision at National Prayer Breakfast at the Capitol.

The president said the lives of the 67 victims ended with God’s embrace, per Newsbreak.

“As one nation, we take solace in the knowledge that their journey ended not in the cold waters of the Potomac, but in the warm embrace of a loving God,” he said.

Trump was taking about the American Airlines flight that collided with a Black Hawk helicopter near the Ronald Reagan National Airport last week.

In remarks at the National Prayer Breakfast at the U.S. Capitol, Trump took several minutes to speak about the plane crash over the Potomac River in D.C. last week.

Trump also called out the need for a new air traffic control system saying, “let’s spend less money and build a great system.” 

The National Prayer Breakfast has been in existence for more than 70 years.

It brings bipartisan lawmakers together for fellowship. 

Trump also talked about the assassination attempt on his life in July in Butler, Pennsylvania.

His survival, Trump said, was thanks to God.

“God did that,” he said regarding how he turned his head that day and  missing the full impact of the bullet that grazed his ear.

“Honestly, it changed — it changed something in me, I feel,” Trump said. “I feel even stronger. I believed in God, but I feel much more strongly about it. Something happened.”
