Joe Biden Issues Weak Response to the American People Following Trump's Assassination Attempt
On Saturday, July 13th, 2024, Joe Biden produced a weak response to Trump’s assassination attempt; issuing an 84-word statement on the catastrophic incident. But Biden publicly refused to call it an assassination attempt; in his response to an inquiry of the press. After President Biden’s campaigning opponent was shot, and American spectators were killed and injured by the gunfire, the president issued a pathetic—seemingly forced by advisors—reaction to the shooting.
Joe Biden gave a public speech later that evening where he stated “I’ve been thoroughly briefed by all the agencies in the federal government on the situation. Basically, we know now, I have tried to get a hold of Donald. He’s with his doctors. They apparently say he’s doing well. I plan on talking to them shortly I hope when I get back to the telephone.” Biden continued “Look. There’s no place in America for this kind of violence. It’s sick. It’s one of the reasons we have to unite this country. We cannot allow this to be happening. We cannot be like this. We cannot codone this…we have more detail…other people may be injured in the audience. I don’t have all the details,” (CBS). Biden’s concern over the potentiality of citizen deaths displays further evidence that he is unfit for presidency.
But the most frightening fact is that the sitting president Joe Biden has radicalized the nation with polarized rhetoric. This mass manipulation has produced a disturbing effect on the population. But American citizens stand protected in unity by the Light of the Lord. God uses broken men, no matter their background or worldview. It is evident that a spiritual war is underway, and God is raising up Donald Trump to fight for the American public. By the grace of God, the American people stand protected. Now it has all culminated into a violent attempt to murder a candidate who supports a specific policy. Historically, governments utilize citizens to normalize radical violence, before imposing the same unjust treatment on the same plebians that previously worked to support such persecutions. Once a standard has been established by proxy the government will continue to coerce its populace into conforming to its benefit.
The deepstate has begun to implement instruments of violence against the citizenry. But no instrument produced by the enemy will prosper, under the protection of Jesus. We must pray individually for the unity of the American nation, and rise up to our civic obligation. The American people were granted another opportunity by the hand of God, whereby the bullet did not harm the former (and likely future) president. His Holy Spirit produced discernment within Trump that allowed him to turn his head at the last moment whereby precluding a certain death by gunshot.
This action proves that God has not abandoned this nation. Instead, a spiritual war is underway and our leaders are positioned themselves to represent one of two positions; righteousness or despotism. Humanity must stand together and oppose the establishment that seeks to denounce the unity of the nation; siphon its morale; and depreciate the sovereignty inherent within each citizen. This is not a conflict with our neighbor; but with something far more sinister.
As scribed by the Apostle Paul, that we must “be strong in the Lord and in his mighty power. Put on the full armor of God, so that you can take your stand against the devil’s schemes. For our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the powers of this dark world and against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly realms,” Ephesians 6:10-12 (NIV). God further instructs through Paul, “[t]herefore put on the full armor of God, so that when the day of evil comes, you may be able to stand your ground, and after you have done everything, to stand. Stand firm then, with the belt of truth buckled around your waist, with the breastplate of righteousness in place, and with your feet fitted with the readiness that comes from the gospel of peace. In addition to all this, take up the shield of faith, with which you can extinguish all the flaming arrows of the evil one. Take the helmet of salvation and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God. And pray in the Spirit on all occasions with all kinds of prayers and requests,” Ephesians 6:13-18a (NIV). Thus, we must realize the fight is not amongst eachother, but the risk of succumbing to the influence from the supernatural force of evil. Paul continues, “[w]ith this in mind, be alert and always keep on praying for all the Lord’s people. Pray also for me, that whenever I speak, words may be given me so that I will fearlessly make known the mystery of the gospel, for which I am an ambassador in chains. Pray that I may declare it fearlessly, as I should,” (Ephesians 6:18b-20; NIV).
