When President Biden said “It's time to put Trump in the bullseye", he gave anyone an open hunting license to shoot Trump

It was a private call that was leaked, and "bullseye" was not literal:

"I have one job, and that’s to beat Donald Trump. I’m absolutely certain I’m the best person to be able to do that. So, we’re done talking about the debate, it’s time to put Trump in a bullseye."

not literal, ..but of Trump had said it the media would have gone crazy

You sure about that?
Yes I am. I double checked the chronology.


If you can find a public source for Biden's comment dated before January 13th, I will retract my statement. But you will not find one.

Biden's "bullseye" comment was made on July 8, 2024, but did not come to public attention until after the assassination attempt on July 13, 2024, the comment could not have been a motivating factor for the attempt. The sequence of events indicates that the public was unaware of Biden's remark before the attack occurred, making it improbable that it influenced the incident

The first public reporting of Biden's comment was made on July 13th, after the assassination attempt.


We know this was after the assassination attempt because it mentions the assassination attempt.

Unless you are suggesting that Thomas Matthew Crooks was on a call with Joe Biden and his donors, then there is no way Crooks could have been influenced by the comment. QED

We were discussing Biden's comment about it being "time to put Trump in a bullseye" As I said this comment was made on July 8th but did not become public knowledge until after the assassination attempt.

You are correct, my sources misinformed me.

Even if Biden's comment was released before the shooting it would be irrelevant until there was evidence of the shooter having read it, and been influenced by it. The far right has zero. But they keep at it.

Even then it was a comment that had some other meaning and intent.

Not trying to rub in salt but just to be sure it wasn't a fluke I did some searching. I found several others posted some below(figured those were enough. Didn't want to overload it). It was a tricky search. Most wouldn't come up by searching with the world "bullseye" included in the search

“We’re done talking about the debate. It’s time to put Trump in the bull’s-eye,” he said. “We can’t go another day, another day, without explaining what he’s doing, and we have to go after him.”

There used to be more but they are disappearing. Why? I have no clue.

thanks, who can say the shooter knew about it? But what I read about him, politics was his passion and ne was tracking it, he knew where Trump would be

I have no clue. I know what Biden meant. It wasn't go shoot Trump.

What I am addressing is the left making excuses saying it wasn't released until after the shooting, then when shown it was released several days before the shooting then it becomes a "so what".

I do not think fantome profane is that way. I think their source steered them wrong.

However others know it was released before the shooting but instead of just saying 'yes it was but that's not what Biden meant' they make excuses which IMO its part of why this country is so torn apart. No one want to admit to things, especially about their party. Instead they want to point fingers and try to make lame excuses.
 

Kathryn

It was on fire when I laid down on it.
Yes, but the arguments are different, the people making those arguments are using these private conversations to show different things.

Vance's private comments are being used to show Vance's state of mind. That is perfectly logical.

On the other hand some people are suggesting that Biden's private conversation had an impact on the thinking of the Trump shooter. This is not logical as the shooter had no way to be aware of such comments. It is very simple. Since Biden's comment was not public knowledge until after the assassination attempt it cannot have been a factor in that assassination attempt.

Right?
Wrong.

He supposedly searched for lots of things. To name a few...
-school shooter Ethan Crumbley and his family
-Trump
-Biden
-How to build explosives
-FBI Director Christopher Wray
-Attorney General Merrick Garland
-a member of the British royal family.
-the democrat convention
-.....

Very simply, you can’t trust either side to tell the truth, the whole truth, and nothing but the truth, and when caught in a lie they go off on tangents, retaliate, whatever. The other day, someone argued with me that it was a private conversation with Biden’s advisers that got leaked, so I sent that person excerpts from a news article saying Biden was talking with hundlers of donors and bundlers when he said it, and did that get acknowledged? Rhetorical. Biden can’t be trusted to tell the truth except when it serves him. Trump invents facts like it’s an addiction. The Dems need to dump Biden and try to find someone with character, spine and devotion to telling the truth no matter what. The Republicans need to do the same.

Both talk BS.

One they both claimed is ..
-Biden said I'm only running because Trump is.
-Trump said I'm only running because Biden is.

People ate that crap up from them both.

Both are total BS lies. They are running for themselves.
Its a great achievement to become president. But... To become president twice, that's the next level. To a politician its the only thing that can top being president once.
They both want that next level.
