On Sunday afternoon, President Biden was flanked by VP Kamala Harris and Attorney General Merrick Garland for a reminder that the assassination attempt on Donald Trump was "not appropriate"

Yeah, this should do it:
Biden calls the attempted assassination of Trump “not appropriate.” That’s what I say to my kids if they belch at the dinner table. It’s not a term you use to describe assassination. This is the weakest, most pathetic man to ever occupy the White House.

Later in the evening, Biden delivered a separate recorded statement and in many ways it was similar to his previous comments, including being baffled by a motive:

Biden said "violence has never been the answer" in a selective kind of way:

Biden reminded all of us that these disputes should be settled at the "battle box," and he did so twice:

Yeah, he's fine.
The crowning achievement of Biden's short address Sunday night was when he tried to pump the brakes after realizing he was coming dangerously close to parroting his opponents campaign slogan:

Joe was THAT close.
I would have laughed myself to tears if Joe Biden had said, Make America Great Again.

Biden almost got there, but alas, it was too much to hope for. Instead we got "Make America, You Know... the Thing..."
