In his six-minute speech, President Biden made several glaring gaffes, including calling the ballot box a “battle box” and calling former President Donald Trump “former Trump.”
“It is time for political passions to calm down,” Biden said in a speech from the Oval Office, and violence should not become the norm in the United States.
Biden noted that political sentiment in the country has “gone very hot” as the November election approaches.
Trump was subjected to an assassination attempt while he was speaking at an election rally in Pennsylvania, and a video clip documented the moment of the assassination attempt moments following he took the stage, as the Secret Service escorted him away with blood pouring from the side of his face.
Trump confirmed on social media that he was shot in the “upper part of his right ear.”
Pennsylvania police said one person was killed in the incident and two others were seriously injured.
The FBI identified the Trump shooter as Thomas Matthew Crooks, 20, and he was killed at the scene by Secret Service agents.
American media reported that Thomas Crooks had no criminal past and that authorities had not yet determined the motive for his attempted assassination of Trump.
On the other hand, Biden called Trump following the assassination attempt, and US First Lady Jill Biden also called Melania Trump, the former president’s wife.
