Posting on his X page on Monday, Biden wrote: “Disagreement is inevitable in American democracy.

“It’s a part of human nature.

 

“But politics must never be a literal battlefield or – God forbid – a killing field.

 

“We must stand for an America not of extremism and fury but of decency and grace.

 

“In America, we resolve our differences at the ballot box. Not with bullets.

 

“Jill and I extend our deepest condolences to the family of the victim who was killed at Donald Trump’s rally – he was a father protecting his family from the bullets being fired.
