Trump: GOP senator had ‘close call' with fall
President Trump weighed in on the recent head injury sustained by Sen. Kevin Cramer (R-N.D.) after he slipped and fell on ice during a trip home, wishing him a speedy recovery but noting the lawmaker 'went through a lot.' 'Our Great Senator from North Dakota, Senator Kevin Cramer, just recently slipped on ice, and hit his head, causing quite an injury. He is now resting comfortably, but went through a lot,' Trump wrote late Tuesday in a post on Truth Social. 'His wonderful wife, Kris, is with him, and I'm sure he will be fine, but it was a close call.' 'Get well soon Kevin, and thank you to Kris for her quick and very alert response to Kevin's difficult moment,' he added. Cramer, 64, shared the news of the injury Monday, telling the public he is currently recovering at home after suffering a concussion and 'brain bleed.' The senator said he slipped on the ice Sunday, falling 'hard' and 'hitting the back of my head.' 'I do not remember anything from the fall until arriving at Sanford Health emergency room with Kris,' Cramer said in the Facebook post, adding that after multiple tests and a CT scan, he was eventually diagnosed with a 'severe concussion, a seizure, and a slight brain bleed.' 'The wound on my head wouldn't stop oozing, so the doctor punched a couple of staples on the laceration and admitted me,' the North Dakota Republican wrote. On Monday, the senator added that he was doing better, 'with only a slight brain bleed and pretty bad headaches.' He also noted that it is still uncertain when he will return to Washington, after his doctor's advised him to rest a 'little' longer. 'It will be day to day this week, but I am ready to return quickly if events require it,' Cramer wrote earlier this week. Cramer previously sustained a hand injury in June 2022 while moving a large rock. It rolled over on his hand, crushing his ring and pinky fingers. Cramer is currently serving his second term in the upper chamber after winning reelection in November against Democratic challenger Katrina Christiansen. He was first elected to the Senate in 2018, when he beat former Sen. Heidi Heitkamp (D-N.D.). Copyright 2025 Nexstar Media, Inc. All rights reserved.
