US President Joe Biden has criticized his predecessor Donald Trump for failing to act during the Capitol attack on Monday, which he called “medieval hell”.
“Brave law enforcement were victims of medieval hell for three hours, covered in blood, surrounded by carnage, confronted by a frenzied crowd believing the lies of the defeated president,” Biden said on the sidelines of a conference of chiefs. African-American police officers.
“For three hours, the defeated former president of the United States sat in the comfort of the private dining room of the Oval Office and watched everything,” he continued.
“The police were heroes that day. Donald Trump lacked the courage to act.” “You can’t be on the side of the insurgency and the police at the same time. You can’t be on the side of the insurgency and democracy. You can’t be on the side of the rebellion and pro-American.”
His criticism of Trump mirrors the conclusion of the House of Representatives committee investigating the Capitol Hill attack on January 6, 2021.
Last Thursday, the commission accused the former president of refusing to stop or condemn the violence.
Biden praised the police a few months before the November midterm elections, when Republicans scolded him for escalating violence in the country and the Democratic Party is expected to weaken.
