Trump narrowly escaped an assassination attempt on Saturday afternoon.
The incident, which saw a bullet miss Trump by mere inches, has sparked intense debate and controversy, particularly following comments made by ABC News veteran anchor George Stephanopoulos on Sunday’s episode of “This Week.”
Stephanopoulos, discussing the political climate with chief global affairs anchor Martha Raddatz, made the controversial claim that Trump himself had contributed to the “violent rhetoric” that led to the assassination attempt.
This statement, coming less than 24 hours after the near-fatal incident, has ignited a firestorm of criticism from viewers and political commentators alike.
The discussion began with Raddatz addressing claims suggesting President Joe Biden’s involvement in the attack.
