Biden praises the Secret Service's actions during the assassination attempt on Donald Trump and says that the security force's work saved his life.
In the USA, we resolve our differences peacefully at the ballot box, not by pointing gun barrels at each other, he says according to BBC.
Political violence does not belong in the USA. Not at all, in no way, never.
On his way to Pennsylvania, Biden said that the Secret Service needs to hire more staff to perform their tasks.
I believe that Congress must meet these needs, said Biden and added "thank God that the president is okay".
The Speaker of the House of Representatives, Republican Mike Johnson, also demands that Congress does more to protect Trump.
He is the most attacked, the most threatened (president), maybe even more now than when he was in the White House. We demand that he gets greater protection, says Johnson.
Immediately after the assassination attempt on Trump's golf course in Florida was thwarted, it was established that the Secret Service did not have the opportunity to cordon off the entire area around the golf facility, which would have happened if Trump were president.
