President Biden, during his latest rambling, incoherent, bad-tempered and often excruciatingly awkward TV interview, was very clear about one thing regarding Donald Trump’s shooting: Don’t blame me, pal!
In fact, he looked indignant that the interviewer, NBC’s Lester Holt, would even suggest such a terrible thing.
It was extraordinarily insightful to watch Biden working so hard to deflect any attention to his own culpability in raising the political temperature to such scarily dangerous levels that someone would try to assassinate his rival four months before the election.
When asked for his first reaction to the shooting, Biden instantly went on his favorite Trump-bashing greatest-hits rant about January 6, Charlottesville, Nazis, both sides, etc.
Think about that for a moment.
Here is the president of the United States declining to even pretend to care that his immediate predecessor, and current rival for the forthcoming election, just came within an inch of being killed.
No, what was more important to “Mr. Nice Guy” Biden was that he score instant political points to imply that Trump had it coming.
To his credit, Holt was having none of it, and pointed out that just days before the shooting, Biden declared Trump an “existential threat” to America and told donors: “It’s time to put Trump in the bull’s-eye.”
But even when confronted with his use of such obviously violent language, Biden scurried to avoid any responsibility for his shameful rhetoric.

That Was Quick: Biden Is Getting Nasty Again
Biden stayed in the race because he knew Trump was going to be assassinated.
Now, here comes the bimbo erruption.
Doesn't make sense to me. Joe Biden is incompetent. The Secret Service is woke. Obviously, they've messed up.
I don’t know anything about dementia or political stumping in general but it seems to me that Biden has a sort of canned response whenever certain topics are raised, no matter the context. The alarm goes off and Biden automatically launches into his preprogrammed spiel.
Feigning outrage is the way Biden’s avoided answering bothersome questions for the last 40 years.
Bidet never takes responsibility for anything. Nor does any Democrat.
If Biden really wants to dial down the temperature, he should start by admitting
his own appalling contribution to it, and properly atone for the damage it’s done.
Democrats introduced a bill To Strip Trump’s Secret Service Protection
Biden tells donors: “Its time to put Trump in the Bullseye”
S/S Director Cheatle focuses on “diversity hires,” not protecting candidates.
NY Times’ John McWhorter declares “it’s a good thing” if somebody assassinated Trump
Cong Dan Goldman said “Trump must be eliminated”
Singer Bette Midler Suggested Biden’s FBI Use “Deadly Force.”
Madonna said she’s thought about “blowing up” the Trump WH.
And so on and so forth, ad infinitum, ad nauseaum.
Brandon is a true Democrat. Like many of his colleagues, I have never heard him express remorse or fault for anything. Why would anyone expect differently now?

I’ve never seen anything come close to a Hitlerian speech from an American politician than the above. If it had been Trump, the collective MEDIA would have set themselves on fire simultaneously in protest. Instead, since it was THEIR Pinocchio, crickets.
Joe has lived in his own made up world..
He is fine.
He is President of the United States.
He demands respect because he is so perfect.
He has no faults.
His son has no faults.
And more....
WE CERTAINLY CAN BLAME YOUR TOTALLY INEPT & UNFOCUSED & UNPREPARED & UNAWARE SECRET SERVICE. WHAT A SAD JOKE.
Your wife made a last minute appearance-—where she spoke for 5 MINUTES in Philly & she pulled some agents away from TRUMP.
YOUR WIFE’s meddling in appointments—CHEATLE—can also be blamed.
SATURDAY’S EVENTS will never be totally whitewashed and every LAME story CHEATLE spouts out of her IGNORANT mouth makes things more suspect.
THE ROOF was TOO STEEP?????
SANTA CLAUS & 80 reindeer could have been up there. !!!!
He never will.
They never will.
Because it’s exactly what they wanted (except the miss).
Biden made a 50 year career in D.C. with canned responses.
It’s all he has ever had. Even his “homespun stories” are rehearsed and rehashed lies.
No, that’s not how this works. If it’s politically advantageous to blame the SHOOTER, (Alt-right, racist, etc.) then you blame the shooter. If you CAN’T blame the shooter, then you blame the gun and/or gun laws.
So, this will be chalked up to “Bad gun laws coming home to roost”.
Cheatle said the roof was too steep? It is an extremely shallow pitch.
Any less pitch and it would be a flat roof.
Don’t hold your breath.
