President Joe Biden addressed the nation through a press conference late on July 15, about 18 hours after the attack on Donald Trump. He said, 'I have spoken to Trump. There is no place for violence in America.'

Biden said that the investigation into this matter is still in its initial stages. We do not have any information about the motive behind this incident yet. So people should not make their own theories about the motive behind this incident. Let the FBI and Secret Service agencies do their work. Our effort is that after this attack, our effort is to provide more security to Trump. For this, the Secret Service has been instructed.

Biden said that I have instructed the Director of the Secret Service to take a good look at the security arrangements of the National Convention of the Republic Party starting tomorrow.
