Former Biden press secretary Jen Psaki was criticized after she demanded Republicans tone down their 'rhetoric' after Donald Trump was shot at Saturday.
Donald Trump's family and supporters have slammed the liberal media for downplaying Saturday evening's assassination attempt - and for running tone-deaf opinion pieces in the wake of the atrocity.
On Sunday, Psaki appeared on Meet the Press and angered Republicans further by putting the onus on them to stop the rage.
'One thing for all of us to remember is it may not feel paused tomorrow or Tuesday. And part of that is because the convention is starting and unless the programming changes, the rhetoric and how the programming is set up is not actually calming the tone or restoring civility,' she said.
'We'll see if that programming changes but if it stays the same, that is escalating it. It is not a civil approach to a convention,' the former press secretary added.
Psaki was immediately criticized by social media, similar to how Trump's family went after the press earlier this weekend.
One user on X wrote: 'Jen Psaki said the Repubs have created a 'tone,' but it is Biden & Dems who have called Trump a Nazi, a rapist, a felon, a terrorist. They have called MAGA supporters domestic terrorists & cult members. Biden promised unity but instead incited violence & division. GO TO HELL.'
'Stop lying and fueling the fire and you wouldn't be scared,' added another.
She then centered herself and her media colleagues in her call for a cease to the angry rhetoric.
'For anyone out there who has a platform who thinks the moment right now is to be political and attack the other party — you are feeding into the danger. You are making it more likely there's retaliation.

Let me tell you something, Ms. Psaki, we saw in real time what happened. We saw the USSS leave a rooftop within 150 yards of the Podium where Donald Trump was almost murdered, and one of my Fire Brothers, Chief Comperatore, was assassinated. We see the massaging of the assassin “he’s a Republican” lie and the “bombs” at his home and in his car, shades of 1/6/21 again.
We have taken the shot across the bow from the Junta, and we will now fight, using every legal means we have, to defeat you and cast you out of power FOREVER. This is the last straw.
I guess women shouldn't wear provocative clothing without expecting to get raped, right Psaki?
POS!
The Soros paid propaganda machine played the “backlash against Muslims following an Islamic terror attack card.” Psaki dutifully accuses Republicans of what Democrats have already done to blunt blame. Republicans should ignore the tactic and demand that Biden order the DOJ to stand down on the persecution of Trump and MAGA.

These slugs are slithering their way out of responsibility for their actions by blaming MAGA. Blue voters think Trump staged this .🤬

It is a tenet of modern American leftism that Orwell’s “two minute hate,” falls 23 hours and 58 minutes short of target.
Retaliation? What are they going to do, shot at him. Bwahahahaha.
Whacky needs to go into hibernation.
That was directed at Former Trump.
Left means you never have to say you’re sorry...
One of their own responded to their own rhetoric and they urge US to tone down the rhetoric? Did I read that correctly or was it a typo? Any word from her to her own side about toning down the rhetoric?
“You are making it more likely there’s retaliation.”
One day soon, Jen, you’re going to learn about retaliation.
L
Is that stupid redheaded bimbo actually suggesting that the rhetoric on the right is too outrageous?
It’s HER people that tried to murder Trump. Perhaps it’s HER that needs to pipe down.
Psaki is a perfect representative of the character and integrity of democrats — zero.
They're gonna run the 9/11 playbook.
They're already cropping the flag out the iconic Trump photo.
Remember how quickly the Twin Towers jumper videos disappeared...
