Forty Eight Hours After Demanding That Republicans "Lower the Temperature," Biden's Back to Calling Trump an Existential Threat to the Country

Of course.

According to a report by the New York Post, President Biden's re-election campaign chair, Jen O'Malley Dillon, criticized Donald Trump on Monday, claiming Trump selected Ohio Sen. JD Vance as his running mate because Vance would enable Trump's extreme agenda, even if it meant breaking the law. This fierce attack came just hours after Biden's Oval Office address, where he called for lowering the temperature in political discourse.

In that address, Biden emphasized the need for political calm and unity, stating, "My fellow Americans, I want to speak to you tonight about the need for us to lower the temperature in our politics and to remember, while we may disagree, we are not enemies." This appeal for civility was a stark contrast to the aggressive rhetoric that followed from his campaign.

Biden's renewed attacks on Trump come amid heightened political tensions and a recent assassination attempt on Trump at a rally in Butler, Pennsylvania. The gunman, Thomas Matthew Crooks, injured Trump and two other attendees, and tragically killed rallygoer Corey Comperatore. In the days leading up to the attempt, Biden had intensified his rhetoric against Trump, including calling him a "dictator" on Twitter and stating Trump would return to power "over my dead body."

...

White House Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre defended Biden's recent comments, stating that the president's critiques of Trump focus on policy and leadership issues, not personal attacks. "Violence has no place in America," Jean-Pierre asserted.

They're claiming it's a "policy issue" to claim Trump is a New Hitler who will literally destroy the country if elected.

They're all back to "Assassination Prep" mode, as Mollie Hemingway calls it.

Biden: Trump is "a danger to the country." Temperature Lowered!

Biden again pushes the "very fine people" hoax. After Trump was almost murdered over lies like this. Temperature Lowered!

Ugly bald lunatic Joy Reid: Trump is "the greatest purveyor and promoter of political violence." Forty eight hours after he was shot by a leftist assassin. Temperature lowered!

Joy Reid claims that Trump incited his own assassination. Temperature Lowered!

When asked why he continues calling Trump an "existential threat to the country" even while he claims to want to #LowerTheTemperature, Biden responds that Trump supporters make "F*** Joe Biden" signs. Completely the same! Temperature lowered!

29 From a martial arts standpoint, what saved President Trump from the fatal bullet was this: he takes a step forward with his left foot, and turns his head at exactly the right moment as the gunman is pulling the trigger. Either one of those motions by them selves would not have saved him, it was only the combination that did so.

42 Is Biden even capable of processing and understanding that there was an attempt on Trump's life? I wonder.

I suspect he's like many late-stage dementia/Alzheimer's cases in that he has moments of some lucidity followed by moments of being near-comatose.

Watch those videos of him walking or leaving a stage. The man has no idea where he is or what he's supposed to be doing. Not a joke. Dead serious. During those moments, there's no way he could process an assassination attempt on his own life, let alone Trump's.

61 Too late for The Rant

Was one who commented 2 of the women on the detail (remained at the vehicles, I think) were a mess. BTW, I'm a woman & can recognize at least those 2 were trainees or transfers.

Taking trainees (even new 'journeyman level' personnel who have come onboard from other agencies or companies) out "to the field" is necessary so they build practical job experience, in addition to their academic degree(s) & valid driver's license.

However, how they could be assigned to the detail of an active 'presidential candidate' was beyond reckless. And that is the issue - along with lack of discipline - endemic, too, but it could be any field fed agency.

From both sides of the fence:
>NBC News, Oct 1, 2014, 'Long List of Breaches and Scandals for Secret Service Under Obama
The embarrassments have continued under two directors'

>VOX, Oct. 9, 2014, A retired Secret Service agent reveals the agency's biggest problem

In part, "What is most needed then is an entirely new group of top-level managers chosen from the best people possible rather than selections based upon political correctness. These new leaders must be worthy of trust and confidence..."

Some are arguing that was the plan. Others note CNN never streamed a Trump rally until this one."

Now I want to watch CNN's coverage closely, to see if there are any "tells" besides the weird fact that they covered it at all. Did someone tip the network off, like "Hey, you're *really* gonna wanna cover this one, wink-wink."
Posted by: Taq, Rickrolled by Jesus at July 16, 2024 12:18 PM (iRX3h)

If it's true that CNN has never streamed a Trump rally in 2024 before the assassination attempt, that's pretty big.


I'm at the point where I cannot discount any such theories because of how evil our ruling class is.

86 For a few years now I haven’t been able to figure out if people like Joe Scarborough and Bill Kristol (just two random examples among many) actually believe what they say about Trump or is it all posturing? They believe the Steele dossier… and EJ Carroll…. They actually believe that Trump will be a dictator after the 4 years he was in office where he always deferred to adverse court decisions (even absurd ones)?

I lean towards despicable posturing… they’re not that stupid (Biden excepted)…

97 They (it would seem) use more than nasty rhetoric. Garland and Wray have pushed criminal charges on many peaceful protesters, including parent's of kids that were abused by trannies ... and had those rapes (or other abuses) covered up by teachers/administrators.

And the "stand down" from guarding the closest rooftop sure seems deliberate. Then the "order" to not shoot, even as shooter is aiming at Trump.

And not even get Trump off the stage, when they had minutes of notice shooter was on roof. These all must be deliberate acts ... massive incompetence can't be that massive, even if the head of SS is a woke idiot ... others knew the roof was a prime place to control.

Just how Crooks knew to go there, knew he would get past security, idk. Maybe CIA tripled his meds and whispered in his ear months beforehand, if not using some other tool they have to control weak people.

98 President Biden, in a display of his eminent human decency, tried to call the widow of the man who was killed, but she refused to take the call, and said, "My husband was a devout Republican, and wouldn't want me talking to him."

Seriously? Meanwhile, there have been no reports of Trump trying to reach out to her at all! I wouldn't normally criticize a grieving person, but this is just so incredibly small!


Her husband was killed by a republican. Wonder if her mind just hasn't gotten around that one yet

I'll give her a pass. She had her husband get his brains blown out. She can't be thinking clearly right now during her shock and grief.

Trump though? Fuck him. This only displays the difference in character between Trump and Biden. Did Trump even fucking MENTION the man who was killed?

To be fair, she did clarify that she didn't have any animosity toward Pres. Biden. I don't expect Trump to ever call her, because he gets nothing out of it and everything he does is transactional.

Biden understood and did not hold it against her. He is understanding and a gentleman. Which is more than I can say for a lot of people.

99 Ray Charles could have seen this coming.

I was talking to someone a couple months ago, they were obviously going to try and kill him since nothing else was working.

I've been watching this retail politics for a long time. The Democrats have been ratcheting up the rhetoric consistently. It was pretty standard boilerplate, mostly, with some exceptions until 2000 and Bush V. Gore. That seemed to really get them and the media in a lather.

The outright demagoguery is relatively recent. And as I mentioned, how do you walk this stuff back? "You're all worse than Hitler!" and "Best wishes for a speedy recovery" and the rest of it.

Irreconcilable differences? Certainly. But they keep wanting Charlie Brown to try and kick that football one more time.

"We're not enemies" says Joe "They're gonna put y'all in Chains!" Biden. F U POS

136 In the Lester Holtz interview Biden dialed nothing down and repeated all his greatest hits smears he has been using for years. A few snippets.

"I watched what happened in Charlottesville, Virginia."

"I’m not the guy that said I want to be a dictator on day one. I’m not the guy that refused to accept the outcome of the election. I’m not the guy who said that wouldn’t accept the outcome of this election automatically."

"my opponent has engaged in that rhetoric. Talks about there’d be a bloodbath if he loses"

It goes on and on. Based on Biden's lack of introspection during this interview about the effects of his corrosive and targeted language against half the nation over the years it will be a matter of days before all pretense of "unifying" the nation will be dropped and he will be back to screaming and whispering about his Dark Brandan fantasies.

191 The progressive mind cannot, will not, and must not leave the existing pathway.
The communist stuck with their 5 years plans even as they saw millions die of starvation.
The socialist of Germany and Italy stuck with their plans to build their nation(s) even to the point that they were willing to wipe out entire religions and sects to create the quote unquote true state.
The progressives of Wilson era administrative state doubled down during the FDR years to create agencies of control that to this day kill, maim, and destroy more Americans lives than any enemy.

Joe and his team have created a narrative that is impossible to change and will in fact be their ideas about PDT and PDT voters for at least a generation.

240 BIDEN SHOOTING PROGRAM

Because Americans fiercely protect their right to be armed, we're proud to announce government-paid shooting lessons for anyone who thinks their aim need a little fine tuning.

We encourage everyone to sign up! Did I mention it's free? Bring your own rifle or, if you cannot afford a rifle, one will be provided to you at no charge!

You have "anti-fascists" eagerly agreeing with the worst, most repressive fascists in history.

I have been to a few Trump rallies and a damn pigeon can't get through the entire area for blocks around undetected let alone a guy in camo carrying a ladder and a gun.

Something is so off here...it all reeks of another mystery man named Oswald. The Feds have some serious splaining to do here. I am fully expecting we are going get a second mystery out of them.

281 >>> Are you going to do a Vance post? The more I read the more I am convinced he could be the change we've all been waiting for.

The Van Jones interview on CNN, indicating he's terrified of Vance, was fantastic. I think Vance is more of a hardliner on certain issues than Trump is, and they know it. And he won't be a deep state insider stooge like Pence.

"This is a scary dude. Scary, dude, because if you're hoping that, after this near-death experience, we're going to have a kumbaya convention. This is not a Kumbaya pick. And so, this would signal that Donald Trump is planning on doing a lot of hard governing. He's got somebody in there who's a pit bull. He's an attack dog. He went to law school. He's going to be in there making a whole bunch of stuff happen. So if you're worried about the Project 2025 and all type of stuff, this is a guy that's going to really keep you up at night....

26 minutes after the second picture of Crooks was taken by law enforcement and the information called in, shots were fired from the roof of the American Glass Research building. Seconds later, a Secret Service sniper returned fire and killed Crooks."

312 The Van Jones interview on CNN, indicating he's terrified of Vance, was fantastic. I think Vance is more of a hardliner on certain issues than Trump is, and they know it. And he won't be a deep state insider stooge like Pence.

"This is a scary dude. Scary, dude, because if you're hoping that, after this near-death experience, we're going to have a kumbaya convention. This is not a Kumbaya pick. And so, this would signal that Donald Trump is planning on doing a lot of hard governing. He's got somebody in there who's a pit bull. He's an attack dog. He went to law school. He's going to be in there making a whole bunch of stuff happen. So if you're worried about the Project 2025 and all type of stuff, this is a guy that's going to really keep you up at night....

"If JD Vance is next in line either now or later, you're talking about a hardening of the Republican Party around a MAGA agenda."

That's another thing that has been busted forever, since the debate: there is NO legitimate legacy media.

397 Conspiracies need not be criminal from a language perspective, but they generally are to the profit of the members at the expense of others.

Before the Sherman Anti Trust laws were put in place a conspiracy in restraint of trade was not a conspiracy in the legal sense. Now it is. Legal "conspiracies" are simply an agreement to do something legal. Illegal conspiracies - which is what people are concerned about, exist all around us. Two guys on a motorcycle decide to rob somebody - that is a conspiracy. We are surrounded by such conspiracies. Garland and Biden agree to go after Trump on bogus legal charges, THAT IS A CONSPIRACY.

I hope Trump says something like this. I'd love it if he uses the word "bleed" in his speech, and just pauses and lets the crowd go crazy and grins.

I watched Obama's 2004 DNC speech live, the one that catapulted him to stardom. And remember vividly the comment he made about how there are not red states or blue states, but red white and blue states. It was, of course, a slickly crafted lie; he never felt or believed it for a moment. But he knew what to say to get people to rally around him, and start soft launching his campaign for POTUS.

Trump actually believes it, though. I hope he has some amazing lines in his speech, and convinces the fence sitters to unify and to vote for him.

And I hope the DNC is full of scared fearmongers, who focus their whole convention on Trump being evil, than what they will actually do to unite and help the country they have destroyed.

537 He gives it up if he wins.

DeWine would appoint a replacement. I've seen a name floated that I don't remember, but he's supposedly DeWine-ish, which would not be great.

Getting DeWine to change his mind would be a great thing to happen.

However, the most important thing is that a backbencher newbie is subject to the whims of a leadership set who actually want things in alignment with the base. A weak-willed cog will always be manipulated. We just want them manipulated the right way.


Vivek has already said he'd take the position if it's offered to him.

Menendez was an insider for decades.

The idea that he's not deeply corrupt because the state went after him is ridiculous.

It's just that he made an enemy of those in power, and they turned the accepted reality of his corruption, which most people in DC share, against him.

615 Disgraced Secret Service Director Kimberly Cheatle is now saying they didn’t put snipers on the roof where the shooter was b/c it was “sloped” and “not safe”.

The slope on that roof is what? Maybe 15 degrees?

To fall off that thing you'd pretty much have to lay down and then purposely roll off the edge.

630 I'd like Vivek in Trump's cabinet or running a gov agency. But, an article I read pushing for him to fill Vance's senate seat, made the case that what probably hurt him in the primary was that he doesn't have the political experience to back up his tech and business bona fides. If he can get the senate seat, get some good experience in DC in the next four years, stay unpolluted by the swamp, push MAGA legislation, he's in a great spot for 2028 or 2032. Cabinet or agency positions are good, but sometimes aren't as visible as a senator or governor.

(Unless you are Buttigedge, of course, and screw up your agency position so much that you make headlines for it!)

I feel the same way about the Alec Baldwin trial. Baldwin is a left wing asshat along with the temper tantrums of a two year old, but the Prosecution f'ed up bigly and withheld evidence from the defense, along with mishandled evidence and were publicly humiliated as they so well deserved. My thoughts on the justice system have changed quite a lot in the last several years.

You can think that everyone is dumb, but not everyone is. I've long been to the point of assuming malice when stupidity would be the safer bet. You fuck up handling of evidence, wait a while knowing it's death to your case and then slip the info to the other side.
