The former president shared a video of a truck that featured a picture of a seemingly helpless Biden with his hands and feet tied up.

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.

    Ok, it’s official now. The people complaining about the media using the word “slams” now annoy me more than when the media uses the word “slams”. They have been using it this way long enough that you all know what they mean now. Just go with it. You’ll be happier.

      You think “slams” is bad …try “claps back”

      Whatever happened to the word “criticize?”

        Clap back always reminds me of butt cheeks clapping together.
