Presumptive Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump drew criticism Friday for posting a video on social media that contains the image of a hog-tied President Joe Biden painted on the tailgate of a passing truck.
The Biden campaign was quick to condemn the video for suggesting physical harm to the sitting Democratic president. Biden has portrayed his likely 2024 opponent as someone who freely evokes Nazi imagery with regard to immigrants, while also stressing in speeches that Trump’s efforts to overturn his loss in the 2020 elections ultimately led to an assault on the U.S. Capitol.
“Trump is regularly inciting political violence and it’s time people take him seriously — just ask the Capitol police officers who were attacked protecting our democracy on January 6,” said Michael Tyler, the Biden campaign’s communications director.
Trump campaign spokesman Steven Cheung responded Friday night: “That picture was on the back of a pickup truck that was traveling down the highway. Democrats and crazed lunatics have not only called for despicable violence against President Trump and his family, they are actually weaponizing the justice system against him.”
The U.S. Secret Service released a statement saying it “does not confirm or comment on matters of protective intelligence.”
The former President posted the video on his social media site, Truth Social. His caption said the video was taken in Long Island, New York on Thursday, when the former President attended the wake of a New York City police officer who was killed during a traffic stop.
The posted video shows a passing truck decked out with “Trump 2024” and flags claiming support for police, with the picture of a seemingly helpless Biden with his hands and feet tied painted on the rear of the vehicle.
Shares in Trump Media & Technology Group Corp. began trading on the stock market Tuesday, with the valuation adding billions of dollars to his fortune.

Now where is that picture of Kathy Griffin holding Trump’s decapitated head? Demos getting a taste of their own medicine and don’t like it.

Whatabout whatabout whatabout.
We’re talking about a former president posting an obscenely violent image of the current president and his politcal rival who defeated him in the 2020 election.
See the difference? Nope? That’s the problem.

Attention Sage Patriots,
STAND BY FOR NEWS:
America the AIRFORCE 1 factor just “FACTORED INTO ITS ABILITY TO 110% PERDICT THE OUTCOME OF THE ELECTION”.
And this “Factor” is “NEVER WRONG”.
SO HERES THE P00P:
America, 8iden’s Aids, Entaurage, and Flight Crew have began “STEALING” everyything on AIRFORCE 1 with the Presidential Seal that is not nailed down.
WHAT THIS MEANS TO OUR NATION:
They all know there WILL NOT be a Dook 4 Brains in The position of POTUS for the next 12+ years. And their positions will 119% be replaced with Sage Patriots.
AND THAT IS THE REST OF THE STORY:

First, that was a decapitated Hillary head in a Trump wig.
Second, Kathy Griffin was exiled for a few years because of that.
If Trump would be so kind as to go into exile like Kathy Griffin did, that truly would Make America Great Again.

Everyday that Trump and his cult continues to incite violence is another example of how they truly hate our freedoms. Despicable and deplorable. They have shown us on Jan 6 their contempt for our democracy. When we are under dictatorship, thank MAGA

No respect for laws, norms, order, and accountability. That’s what remains of the Republican party. Lawlessness, vulgarity lies, and deception. And of course, corruption, And a large swath of America seems to condone this behavior.

Here’s another warning to the MAGAs from TS-13.
Your “big boy” gun hoard will only get you killed.
And it’ll be the local popo who do it. Not even FBI. Not even ATF. Just your local popo.
–Quezon City TS-13, with your local popo on speed dial and MAGA phone numbers on caller ID.
Fear 13 year old girls. MAGAs in flyover country and the south USA are nothing compared to worldwide presence of TS-13.
