President Joe Biden called the shooting at former President Donald Trump’s Saturday rally “sick,” speaking in an address to the nation.
The president said that he was thoroughly briefed and that he had tried to contact Trump on the phone, but that he hadn’t had the chance to speak with Trump yet.
“It’s sick. It’s sick. It’s one of the reasons why we have to unite this country,” Biden said.
When asked whether this was an assassination attempt, Biden said that he had an opinion, but didn’t have the facts yet. He added that if he speaks with Trump, he will again update the press.
