PRESIDENT BIDEN SAYS ‘THANK GOD’ TRUMP IS OK AFTER ASSASSINATION ATTEMPT:
President Biden departing the White House commented on the second assassination attempt made on Donald Trump.
Before departing on Marine One, Biden said ‘thank god the president is ok.’
He also said the one thing he wants to make clear is ‘the Secret Service needs more help’ and he thinks ‘Congress should respond to their needs.’
The buck never stops with Sundown Joe, despite the fact, as Jeffrey Blehar writes at the Corner: Everybody Is Terrified of Where This Is Headed and Nobody Will Say It.
I won’t get into the vulgar politics of it all yet — though it would be patrician folly to pretend they’re irrelevant (hey, imagine how Volodymyr Zelensky feels this morning) — because I care far more about the bottom line: This is now the second time in the late stages of this campaign that someone has tried to murder Trump. Give him presidential level Secret Service coverage, now. Screw the regulations. Joe Biden loves giving unlawful executive orders to spend a ton of money — I know this because he forgave $20,000 of my student loans without me even wanting him to — so break the damn bank if you must. Change the rules on the fly, and let someone file a lawsuit if they have to.
But you don’t want a dead presidential candidate on your hands. And if what Richard Blumenthal recently said about the as-yet-unrevealed systemic collapse of the Secret Service is true? (“I think the American people are going to be shocked, astonished and appalled by what we will report to them about the failures by the Secret Service in this assassination attempt on the former President.”) Then you have no idea how deeply any subsequent attack is going to shake the foundation of our entire civil society if it comes to pass. It clearly can now. Get him more coverage, today.
The fact that Joe (or whoever is actually running the country at the moment) is slow-walking this, just as he (they?) slow-walked extra protection for RFK Jr. speaks volumes about what the administration actually thinks about Trump, despite all of the “thank God he’s ok” rhetoric:
