Former Biden Press Secretary Jen Psaki, who is now a leftist host on MSNBC, said over the weekend that people who are blaming Democrats and the media for the assassination attempt are increasing the risk of violence and that people “feel” scared.
Psaki made the remarks during a Sunday appearance on NBC News’ “Meet The Press” with host Kristen Welker while talking about the fallout from the assassination attempt.
“For anyone out there who has a platform who thinks the moment right now is to be political and attack the other party, you are feeding into the danger,” she said. “You are making it more likely there’s retaliation. I’m incredibly scared. I’m scared for journalists. I’m scared for people who have public platforms of all parties. And that’s how people should feel.”
She said that people just need to just “take it day by day. That’s where he would be.”
Speaking of President Joe Biden’s upcoming week, Psaki said: “I mean, he has a huge interview tomorrow. And the moment there is not to talk about the political path forward. It is to be a healer and to lower the rhetoric and the – and – and the – the tenor in the conversation in the country.”
