Filmmaker Ami Horowitz has slammed Joe Biden for “doubling down” on his anti-Trump rhetoric “even after the assassination”.
Former US president Donald Trump survived an assassination attempt at his rally in Pennsylvania over the weekend.
“Joe Biden had a chance to bring the temperature down, and he did it in a sense, but at the end of the day, what he ended up saying was you have to keep the rhetoric down,” Mr Horowitz told Sky News host Danica De Giorgio.
“Lester Holt called him out on it and asked him about it … and he actually doubled down and said, ‘Hey, how else do you want me to describe him if not saying he’s a threat to democracy’.
“He doubled down on this rhetoric even after the assassination.”
