CelebNPolitics247.com reports that Joe Biden, the 2020 Democratic presidential nominee, wants Americans to realize the hate that President Donald Trump is encouraging people to follow.
On Saturday, one man died following clashes in Portland between members of a pro-Trump vehicle rally and Black Lives Matter protesters.
Now, Joe Biden called “the deadly violence” in Portland “unacceptable” stating that he condemns “violence of every kind by anyone, whether on the left or the right.”
Biden released this lengthy statement Sunday afternoon:
As a country, we must condemn the incitement of hate and resentment that led to this deadly clash,” Biden added. “It is not a peaceful protest when you go out spoiling for a fight. What does President Trump think will happen when he continues to insist on fanning the flames of hate and division in our society and using the politics of fear to whip up his supporters?
Joe Biden accused Trump of “recklessly encouraging violence” saying:
The president “may believe tweeting about law and order makes him strong … his failure to call on his supporters to stop seeking conflict shows just how weak he is.”
Joe adds:
He may think that war in our streets is good for his reelection chances, but that is not presidential leadership — or even basic human compassion,” Biden said. “The job of a president is to lower the temperature … The temperature in the country is higher, tensions run stronger, divisions run deeper. And all of us are less safe because Donald Trump can’t do the job of the American president.
Biden’s statement came after Trump praised a caravan of his supporters who were filmed spraying protesters with paintballs and pepper spray.

Portland police are investigating the shooting death of a man amid those clashes, though it is not immediately clear whether the shooting was directly connected to the skirmishes. A picture from the scene published by Getty Images showed the victim wearing a hat with the Patriot Prayer group’s logo. That group, described as far-right by the Southern Poverty Law Center, has previously clashed with protesters in Portland.
Trump shared a video of the pro-Trump caravan driving into Portland and labeled them “GREAT PATRIOTS!”
In another tweet, Trump referred to protesters in Washington, D.C., as “Disgraceful Anarchists” and said:
We are watching them closely…The big backlash going on in Portland cannot be unexpected after 95 days of watching and incompetent Mayor admit that he has no idea what he is doing.
Trump said in one Twitter post:
The people of Portland won’t put up with no safety any longer. The Mayor is a FOOL. Bring in the National Guard!
