Biden admitted he made a “mistake” by announcing “it’s time to target Trump” before the assassination attempt.

Joe Biden explains that he misused the expression to draw attention to Donald Trump’s “lies” in his campaign for November’s US presidential election.

U.S. President Joe Biden admitted on a call with donors on July 8 that he made a “mistake” by declaring “it’s time to take aim at Trump.”

“It was a mistake to use that word,” Joe Biden admitted in an interview with NBC News, in which he explained that his intention was to draw attention to what Donald Trump is doing in this campaign for the November presidential election. “I wanted to say that the focus should be on him, what he is doing, his policies and the number of lies he told in the June 27 debate.

Asked by interviewer Lester Holt in the days before his attack against Donald Trump whether he considered the language inflammatory, Biden responded by asking another question: “How do you talk about the threat to democracy — which is real — when a president says the things he’s saying are inflammatory to somebody?

“I’m not the one who said I want to be a dictator from day one. I’m not the one who said I won’t accept the results of this election. You can’t just love this country once you win.” Joe Biden argued in part of an interview published by the television station.

In a call with Democratic donors on July 8, Biden argued that “it’s time to put Trump on target,” according to a summary of the call provided by his campaign — a recall shortly after the attack on Donald Trump. One person was killed and two others were wounded at a rally in Butler, Pennsylvania, where he was being investigated for attempting to assassinate the former president.
