World Leaders Condemn Violence Against Trump’s Ear

The alleged assassination attempt was by far the best possible thing that could have happened to Donald Trump, which is surely why Andrew Anglin immediately insisted that it was staged by Israeli Jews to make him invincible.

All of these international leaders, like all of the domestic forces, were constantly saying “Trump must be stopped.”

Now that someone tried to stop him, it’s a whole lot harder to say that. Instead, they have to give condolences.

The Guardian:

Leaders from around the world have condemned the shooting at Donald Trump’s rally in Pennsylvania, denounced political violence and wished Trump a quick recovery.

A spokesperson for the UN secretary general, António Guterres, condemned the shooting and called it an “act of political violence.”

Reaction came throughout the night, from leaders who have not always seen eye to eye with Trump and others who are viewed as his close allies.

Germany’s chancellor, Olaf Scholz, condemned the attack as “abhorrent”, adding: “Such acts of violence threaten democracy,” while Emmanuel Macron of France called it a “tragedy for our democracies”, adding: “France shares the shock and indignation of the American people.”

The EU’s foreign policy chief, Josep Borrell, condemned the attack. “Once again, we are witnessing unacceptable acts of violence against political representatives,” the bloc’s top diplomat said.

Ukraine’s president, Volodymyr Zelenskiy, said he was “appalled”. “Never should violence prevail,” he said, adding: “I wish America emerges stronger from this.”

The Kremlin spokesperson, Dmitry Peskov, said it did not believe the US administration was responsible for the assassination attempt, but accused it of creating an “atmosphere around candidate Trump [that] provoked what America is confronting today”. He said Vladimir Putin had no plans to call Trump.

The Israeli prime minister, Benjamin Netanyahu, said the shooting left him shocked.

How long will it be before people can start using ultra-vitriolic language against Trump again? That isn’t clear. We will just have to wait and see. But they can’t do it today and they can’t do it tomorrow.

Bibi got in there.


Of course, Bibi never did anything other than praise Donald Trump.

He’s made it clear he is his preferred candidate.

So the alleged failed assassination attempt is as good for Bibi as it is for Trump.

They’re a team, after all.
