Biden says 'bullseye' reference to Trump was a mistake
Reuters Videos42 minutes agoSTORY: :: July 15, 2024 U.S. President Joe Biden told NBC's Lester Holt he made a mistake when he told supporters to put rival Donald Trump in a "bullseye" :: President Biden says his 'bullseye' reference to rival Trump was a mistake HOLT: "Well, let's talk about the conversation this has started and it's really about language. What we say out loud and the consequences of those. You've called your opponent an existential threat. On a call a week ago, you said it's time to put Trump in the bullseye. There's some dispute about the context, but I think you appreciate that words matter." BIDEN: "I didn't say crosshairs. I was talking about focus on. Look, the truth of the matter was, what I guess I was talking about at the time was there's very little focus on Trump's agenda." HOLT: "Yeah, the term was bullseye." BIDEN: "It was a mistake to use the word. I didn't say crosshairs. I meant bullseye, I meant focus on him. Focus on what he's doing. Focus on his policies. Focus on the number of lies he told in the debate. Focus. I mean, there's there's a whole range of things that, look, I'm not the guy that said I want to be a dictator on day one. I'm not the guy that refused to accept the outcome of the election. I'm not the guy who said he won't accept the outcome of this election automatically. You can't only love your country when you win." HOLT: "Have you taken a step back and done a little soul searching on things that you may have said that could incite people who are not balanced?" BIDEN: "Well, I don't think, look, how do you talk about the threat to democracy, which is real, when a president says things like he says. Do you just not say anything because it may incite somebody? Look, I have not engaged in that rhetoric."

- 2:03Trump Media, crypto stocks surge on boosted election oddsReuters VideosSTORY: Crypto stocks, prison operators and other shares that could benefit from a Donald Trump presidency jumped on Monday, as an assassination attempt on the Republican candidate boosted odds of an election victory in November. Trump Media & Technology Group, owner of the former president's Truth Social platform, soared 35%. Trump owns a majority stake in the company, worth about $3.8 billion as of late June, according to LSEG data. The stock has surged 75% this year, driven by retail traders betting Trump will win the rematch against his Democratic rival, President Joe Biden. Online betting site PredictIt showed bets of an election win for Trump at 67 cents, up from Friday's 60 cents, with Joe Biden at 27 cents. Also getting a boost: crypto stocks, tracking bitcoin's jump to a two-week high, as Trump has presented himself as a champion of cryptocurrency. Crypto exchange Coinbase Global, and bitcoin miners Riot Platforms and Marathon Digital all rose. Gun makers and prison stocks jumped. Gun stocks such as Smith & Wesson Brands and Sturm Ruger & Company tend to rise after a mass shooting as calls for gun control can lead some people to buy more firearms, fearing their availability may become limited. And prison operator stocks Geo Group and CoreCivic gained, as Trump has promised to crack down on illegal immigration, which could boost demand for detention centers. On the downside, clean energy stocks such as Invesco Solar and iShares Global Clean Energy slipped as Trump has said he would reverse many of the Biden administration's signature climate policies, including tax incentives, if he wins the election. All three of Wall Street's main indexes were up, with the Dow hitting a record intraday high, and long-dated bond yields also rose, in part on the assumption Trump's policies would add to inflation and debt.9 hours ago
