The attack on Republican White House candidate Donald Trump took place on Saturday night to Sunday in the US state of Pennsylvania. A sniper shot him in the ear, but with his face stained with blood and his arm raised up, Trump made an iconic dismissal from his followers. At least two people have died in the shooting, among the public was a Trump follower and the alleged perpetrator of the shooting, a 20-year-old. Trump's images have turned around the world and the reactions have been scientific, most of them supported, conspirators, others; not a few have suggested that this is a political act counterfeited by Trump. Trump has decided not to speak until Monday, while Biden has already condemned the attack three times.
The newspaper The New York Times is collecting on its website, in liveblogging format or in a brief information per minute, the details of the attack. It highlights the following: A minute and a quarter of President Joe Biden's speech entitled "Biden asks the nation to lower the temperature." "We cannot lead America to decline along this path," said Biden, who regretted "any violent act" that has taken place.
Biden, in Strait Port
Everything goes very fast in this society and, as Gorka Bereziartua says in this latest article in the Ondo Acabo series, attempts at magnicide already depend on the logic of the producers of content in the networks, at a time when digital culture has rubbed the branches of history with butter. That is what Joe Biden, President of the United States and candidate for the presidency of the Democrats, has tried to do for the time being, but he has spoken as against the wall. Maybe that's what I wanted. As in recent times, the public has noticed more the triviality of their language and the possible lapses than the content. But, at the same time, it has served to suspend a couple of public acts; some less tests when it comes to demonstrating his health and the ability to remain president.
He hasn’t made a mistake in his early Monday speech; he hasn’t made visible mistakes in uttering phrase by phrase, and he hasn’t called Trump “President of Russia” or something like that, when he called Ukrainian President Zelensky Putin. Wrong, of course. Zelensky took him down in the media for "something involuntary" he was, asked "to forget" and that that mistake "didn't have to mark the agenda." However, the work was already done. Biden became ridiculous again before everyone else, once again, because everyone knows that he has mental health problems, caused by age. Biden, 81, is only three less than Trump, but it's clear that one is worse than the other -- health; being "cracked" could win Trump.
However, the Russian Government gave him the last word to think: he said that it is "unacceptable" and "inappropriate" for a head of state to speak "disrespectfully" of other heads of state... for whom is "unacceptable"? For Russians or for everybody?
More and more people are questioning Biden’s health and asking him to withdraw his candidacy, but for the time being he is still there. When the focus seems to be diverted, taking a small "rest" has been like asking for a moratorium.

Everyone is accounting for what can happen in Trump 2.0 and what can happen in the world. One of the few forecasts that can be given as a little from the knowledge of the subject's frivolity is that relations with China in the United States, at least economic, will deteriorate... [+]
