Donald Trump has blamed Joe Biden and Kamala Harris for last month’s failed assassination attempt against him by accusing them of making it difficult for the Secret Service to protect him.
The Republican presidential nominee’s claim – for which he offered no evidence – was made on the television talkshow Dr Phil, hosted by Phil McGraw, on Tuesday. The remarks follow disclosures that several Secret Service agents from the Pittsburgh field office had been placed on administrative leave after the 13 July shooting.
At a campaign rally in Butler, Pennsylvania, last month, Trump was grazed on the ear by a bullet after a 20-year-old gunman opened fire from the roof of a nearby building. One rallygoer, Corey Comperatore, was killed and two others were seriously wounded. The gunman was shot dead by a Secret Service officer at the scene.
“When this happened, people would ask, whose fault is it?” Trump told McGraw. “I think to a certain extent it’s Biden’s fault and Harris’s fault. And I’m the opponent. They were weaponising government against me, they brought in the whole DoJ to try and get me, they weren’t too interested in my health and safety.
fun fact, the acronym for them is USSS. I think that explains all we need to know.
Because it has nothing to do with your lying, traitorous, racist, rapey authoritarian ass.
It was a right wing extremist.
What’s not in good faith? Did any reputable news source call him an outright ring wing extremist?
oh it absolutely is debated in good faith, unless you have pretty stout evidence that this guy was a neo nazi or something i’m content with him just being an “extremist” instead of a “right wing extremist” you might argue it’s “right wing, extremist” but no
ok to be clear, it was probably an extremist, not a right wing extremist, could’ve been left or right, but likely only moderately.
More than likely he just wanted to cause problems and be a troll.
Politically he was right wing. Though it looks like the assasination didn’t have much political motive, seems the kid was suicidal and wanted to do something big, he looked up events for Joe Biden too. Trump was just closer and more convenient.
It’s because of Biden and Harrises VIOLENT RHETORIC! If they weren’t so VIOLENT it would have NEVER HAPPENED! Now GET READY FOR A BLOODBATH MY FELLOW REPUBLICANS! DEMOCRATS want your GUNS!
remember guys, tucker never said on national television that joe biden was “giving a speech in front of a nazi blood red background” That never happened.
Remember guys donald trumps personal attorney joe digenova never said that chris krebs (shortly after the 2020 election statement he made) should be “taken out at dawn and shot”
remember guys, the republicans never, not once in twenty years called the dems “communists” nor have they ever accused the dems of “turning america communist” or wanting to “overthrow democracy and make america communist”
remember guys, republicans never use violent rhetoric, it’s only the dems.
Remember guys, as the dems, it’s our responsibility to fall on the knife EVERY time something bad happens, the republicans NEVER do anything bad, EVER.
