BBC Presenter Calls For Biden To Murder Trump

A BBC presenter is facing backlash after calling for Biden to murder Trump.

In a post on X, BBC presenter David Aaronovitch stated, “If I was Biden, I’d hurry up and have Trump murdered on the basis that he is a threat to America’s security.”

His comments come after the U.S. Supreme Court ruled in a 6-3 decision that Trump had immunity in any “official acts.”

Aaronovitch’s comments faced immediate backlash.

Here’s what The New York Post reported:

A leftist BBC presenter is under fire after he suggested that President Biden should have Donald Trump “murdered” in the wake of his Supreme Court immunity ruling.

“If I was Biden I’d hurry up and have Trump murdered on the basis that he is a threat to America’s security,” Radio 4 host David Aaronovitch, 69, wrote on X.

His comment was in response to the Supreme Court’s 6-3 ruling Monday that Trump has immunity for any “official acts” he made during his presidency.

The decision did not define what is considered “official acts,” though it noted that not everything a president does is considered official business.

Aaronovitch’s reaction sparked immediate backlash – including one account that suggested “people have had police visits for a lot less. Knock knock.”
