Biden Lies at California Rally: Trump Called People Like Paul Pelosi Attacker ‘Patriots’Joel B. Pollak 3 Nov 2022
OCEANSIDE, California — President Joe Biden told a crowd Thursday evening that former President Donald Trump had used the term “patriots” to refer to people like the man who attacked Paul Pelosi, husband of Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi (D-CA).
Paul Pelosi was attacked last week in his home by a disturbed Canadian illegal alien nudist activist who lived in a commune and who subscribed to conspiracy theories, including about the 2020 election.
Biden told the crowd:
And how can you call yourself a democracy when you have a group of 1,000 people who storm the United States Capitol, break the windows and doors down, two policemen die as a consequence of it [sic], break through the House and Senate doors and chambers, have people cowering on the floor, threatening to kill people? You saw what happened to Paul Pelosi, in an effort to get to Nancy. Well, guess what? What do they call these guys? What do Trump and all his Trumpies call them? He said they’re “patriots.” No! No! No! No! No! Not a joke! These are “patriots”!
There were no police officers killed in the Capitol riot, though one who was attacked, Brian Sicknick, later died of natural causes.
There is no record of Trump calling Paul Pelosi’s assailant a “patriot,” though he has said that of protesters at the U.S. Capitol on January 6, apparently referring to those who were not guilty of violent crimes (which he condemned shortly after the riot).
Biden claimed that Pelosi’s assailant was evoking the Capitol riot because he demanded “Where is Nancy?”, just as some rioters had done.
