"I don't consider any Trump supporter a threat to the country," the president said at the White House.
It was a contrast to his remarks on Thursday night when, in a primetime address on the threat to democracy, he said Trump and his supporters were a threat to the republic.

Oh, my ass.
That speech wasn't written by Biden, but it was reviewed by several in his office and administration as well as himself and was approved by everybody right down the line. He knew exactly what he was saying.
The only reason he's backtracking now is because him and his staff were too fucking stupid to realize what a shitstorm that speech was going to cause.
The one thing I'll never forget my father telling me (repeatedly, I might add) was that the one thing you can never take back is the spoken word.
You said it, Biden, now you need to fucking own it.
