The tweet from another Twitter user that he was reposting and commenting on with approval, calling the Trump supporters at The Villages "great people," is still there. Posting it in case you haven't seen that video yet:

Trump might have deleted it primarily because it showed his approval of white supremacists who support him, but he could also have been warned about being called out for the dogwhistle "Joe is shot" wording he used again:

Wording that seemed even more ominous with the context of white supremacy.

The thing about Joe was easy to interpret as more stochastic terrorism, Predator Grump style. There are many other words that could be used in place of shot, and obviously, Biden is not doing poorly, so it doesn't even apply in context.
Q-Anuts are listening to him and awaiting his signals.

Other than that admittedly minor quibble - I am SO GLAD and very proud to see both the numbers and the FIGHT in those who showed out to ensure that incredibly pathetic parade of dotard cultists did not go unanswered.
