Trump blames Biden, Harris for assassination attempt


The republican presidential candidate Donald Trump has blamed President Biden and Vice President Harris for the recent assassination attempt against him.
In an exclusive interview with Fox News Digital, Trump claimed that the rhetoric used by Biden and Harris is what caused the gunman to open fire.
“He believed the rhetoric of Biden and Harris, and he acted on it,” Trump said.
Trump also pointed to Biden and Harris’ past comments, which cast him as a “threat to democracy.”
The suspected gunman, Ryan Wesley Routh, had an AK-47 style rifle and was arrested on I-95 after fleeing the scene.
Authorities are treating the episode as an apparent assassination attempt against Trump.
Trump claims that Biden and Harris’ rhetoric is causing him to be “shot at.”
“They are the opposite of unity leaders,” Trump said. “These are people that want to destroy our country.”
Democrats have repeatedly blamed Trump for raising the temperature and have accused him of being a “threat to democracy.”
Trump also reflected on the debate against Harris last week, slamming the media for being biased.
“The media is made up of fools that will spew [Democrats’] garbage and spew their sick philosophies and will protect them at all costs,” Trump said.
With just 50 days until Election Day, Trump warned Democrats to watch their rhetoric.
“They use highly inflammatory language,” he said. “I can use it too far better than they can but I don’t.”
The latest assassination attempt came after Trump was shot in the ear at a Pennsylvania rally by a gunman who killed one person and wounded others before being fatally shot by police on July 13.
