Biden and Trump both denounced the attack in New Orleans, which killed at least 14 people.
“There is no justification for violence of any kind, and we will not tolerate any attack on any of our nation’s communities,” Biden said on Wednesday.
Trump called the incident an “act of pure evil,” adding that “when I said that the criminals coming in are far worse than the criminals we have in our country, that statement was constantly refuted by Democrats and the Fake News Media, but it turned out to be true” before the suspect was identified as a U.S. citizen from Texas.
