Statement from President Joe Biden

I have been briefed on the shooting at Donald Trump’s rally in Pennsylvania.

I’m grateful to hear that he’s safe and doing well. I’m praying for him and his family and for all those who were at the rally, as we await further information.

Jill and I are grateful to the Secret Service for getting him to safety. There’s no place for this kind of violence in America. We must unite as one nation to condemn it.

Statement from the White House


Probably being cynical, but why does this seem to read like he's just saying this in hopes something similar doesn't happen to him?

I'm skeptical that he prays.

So, he was briefed (not Jill and I just I). But Jill and I are grateful? Why not just I am grateful? Who's really writing this?

Video of a dead guy on a rooftop.

Maybe this is the shooter and the "shooter" in the crowd was a bystander.


Looks like it was taken down

no, still there.

I don't know about the security in keeping him from that vantage point, but a SS sniper took him out pretty fast, 1-2 seconds...?

NY Post reports the shooter is a Chinese national.
We'll have to see it that holds true.

If true what's the problem? The Sigforum security experts think Trump getting shot is acceptable. God forbid if the VIP they are supposed to protect gets shot. Shit happens, amirite?

40 yards, right? 40 feet sounds a little close.

Apparently CBS contacted some unnamed person in the Trump campaign for reaction after the shooting. A female CBS talking head stated that the person stated something to the effect that first, they tried to take him off the ballot, next they tried to put him in jail and now this.

Quite unbelievably, the talking head then went on a rant about how irresponsible and incendiary it was to make such statements and especially when "they" were not identified. Nothing about the dead spectator or the other person who was apparently critically injured.

These reporters are totally tone-deaf.

Yes, with all violent rhetoric from the Dems, this was something I feared could be a possibility and now it has happened.

Good God. I have so many feelings right now but the two big ones seem to be anger and relief.

How is that possible?

Anyone got eyes on the rooftops? Damn.

In one of those videos I hear the voice of a female secret service agent saying repeatedly “what are we doing? What are we doing?”

My first thought is Your Job. What does your training tell you to do?

He said 40'. He said ppl started cheering when they saw the shooter go down.

More likely 40yards but just repeating what he said

Complains the people who call this a security incident instead of a shooting or assassination attempt.

Yea, CBS can go pound fucking sand.

In this day and age of drone surveillance, how can presidential shooters hide on a rooftop?

Funny how he makes a statement like this when for the last 7 years he and the Democratic party have pushed the message of "Stop Trump at all costs" They've been gaslighting the country that Trump is evil, a felon, a dictator, a racist. What do you expect would happen????

Any surprise the Biden campaign is pulling ALL TV ads?

Maybe he meant 40 feet away from him, not the stage. And he was far from the stage. Anyway no biggie.

In the spirit of never let a crisis go to waste, the Democrats now have an excuse to hide Joe and allow him to campaign from his basement again.
