Former president Donald Trump disseminated on social media on Friday an image of President Biden with his hands and feet tied and his mouth gagged, the latest example of the Republican candidate’s use of increasingly violent rhetoric and imagery this campaign season.

The image can be seen about halfway through a 20-second video that Trump posted on his Truth Social site. The post says it was recorded Thursday on Long Island, where Trump traveled this week to attend a wake for a recently killed police officer.

In the video, two trucks decorated with giant Trump flags and altered American flags are driving on a highway. On the tailgate door of one of the trucks is the image of Biden lying horizontally, bound and gagged.

Trump has a history of sharing and promoting violent images featuring his perceived enemies.

    What liberals fundamentally fail to grasp is that no amount of appeasement of the "center right" will be enough. No amount of Joe Biden murderous reactionary border enforcement or unabashed collaboration in the zionist genocide will be enough for the reactionary forces. The liberals cede ground for nothing, throwing away the lives of those they see as subhuman anyway, and the reactionaries just adjust their positions to be even worse and continue braying for blood as if nothing happened.
