Donald Trump is doubling down on his claim that he was the target of an assassination attempt.

Donald Trump is now looping his baseless conspiracies into his fundraising emails.

On Monday, the presumptive GOP presidential nominee escalated his claims that President Joe Biden authorized the FBI to shoot and kill him during its 2022 raid on Mar-a-Lago, this time promising to punish his two-time opponent for the alleged assassination attempt.

“Biden’s day of reckoning is coming,” the Trump campaign wrote in a fundraising email distributed Monday. “He tried to publicly torture and humiliate me … but he failed. He tried to raid my home and take me out with deadly force … but he failed.”

    Aren’t Trump’s lawyers currently arguing in front of the supreme court that it would have been perfectly legal for Biden to do so, him being immune from all criminal prosecution while president?

      You’re surprised at hypocrisy from politicians?

      Biden unironically said “no one is approved the law” just a few weeks after saying Israel doesn’t have to stop their genocide because of international law, and the real problem was the ICC warrants.

      Why do you expect more from trump than Biden?

      We can’t even expect more from Biden than trump these days…

      That’s the natural result of using “not worse than trump” as the standard.
