Biden campaign website still warns: ‘We need to stop Trump before it’s too late’

President Joe Biden’s campaign website still has comments posted on it claiming, “We need to stop Trump before it’s too late,” despite his own calls in the past 48 hours to reject political violence following the assassination attempt on former President Donald Trump.

As of Monday at 12 p.m., the site for the campaign of Biden and Vice President Kamala Harris, which asks for donations starting at $25, has a chatbot pop-up window that reads: “We need to stop Trump before it’s too late.”

Similarly, under its issues page, it still refers to Trump as a “dangerous threat to democracy.”

In a prime-time address on Sunday night, Biden urged calm and told the public to “lower the temperature in our politics.”

“We cannot, we must not, go down this road in America,” Biden said. “There is no place in America for this kind of violence or for any violence ever. Period. No exceptions. We can’t allow this violence to be normalized.”

Biden not only mentioned Trump but also listed several other recent acts of political violence, including the 2017 shooting of House Majority Leader Steve Scalise (R-LA). Before Trump’s shooter was identified as a 20-year-old Republican, Scalise linked Saturday’s shooting to “incendiary rhetoric” about Trump coming from Democrats.

“For weeks Democrat leaders have been fueling ludicrous hysteria that Donald Trump winning re-election would be the end of democracy in America,” Scalise said in a statement. “Clearly we’ve seen far left lunatics act on violent rhetoric in the past. This incendiary rhetoric must stop.”

The attempted assassination of Trump at a rally in Pennsylvania on Saturday left one attendee and the gunman dead and two other attendees in critical but stable condition. Trump said he was grazed by a bullet, treated at a local hospital, and released that same night.

Trump’s Republican backers have pointed to a comment Biden made on July 8 discussing his debate performance in a meeting with donors.

“I have one job, and that’s to beat Donald Trump,” Biden said. “We’re done talking about the debate. It’s time to put Trump in the bull’s-eye. He’s gotten away with doing nothing for the last 10 days except ride around in his golf cart.”

The Republican National Convention, where Trump is expected to accept his party’s presidential nomination, began Monday in Milwaukee.
