The rhetoric from President Joe Biden’s campaign led to the attempted assassination of former President Donald Trump, Sen. J.D. Vance (R-OH) tweeted Saturday night.
“Today is not just some isolated incident,” he wrote, adding:
The central premise of the Biden campaign is that President Donald Trump is an authoritarian fascist who must be stopped at all costs. That rhetoric led directly to President Trump’s attempted assassination.
Today is not just some isolated incident.
