The video, released Friday afternoon, shows two pickup trucks driving on a highway with several Trump-supporting signs and flags. On the tailgate of a vehicle is an image that purports to show Biden lying with his hands tied behind his back.
“This photo of Donald Trump is the kind of nonsense you post when you call for a massacre,” a Biden campaign spokesman said, referring to a statement Trump made in mid-month. The ex-president warned of a “bloodbath” for the American auto industry if he did not win the election.
Trump regularly calls for political violence “and it’s time for people to take him seriously,” Biden’s spokesperson continued, referring to the January 2021 storming of the US Capitol in Washington by hundreds of Trump supporters.
The Secret Service is silent
Trump’s campaign said Democrats and “crazies” had not only called for despicable violence against Trump and his family. They would also use the legal system as a weapon against him.
The U.S. Secret Service, which protects current and former presidents, declined to comment on whether an investigation would be launched after the video’s release.
Republican Trump and Democrat Biden have now secured the necessary delegate votes in their parties’ primaries to be sent back into the race for the November 5 presidential election. This will be a repeat of the 2020 match, from which Biden emerged as the winner. It is already clear that the election campaign will be one of the toughest in American history. (sda/afp)
