Trump: ‘The US is the laughing stock of the world’
The newly elected President of the United States, Donald Trump, who yesterday indirectly attributed what happened to foreign immigrants, today declared that, after what happened in New Orleans and Las Vegas, the United States is “the laughing stock of the world” as a result of the management of the current president, Joe Biden, and has assured that institutions such as the Department of Justice and the FBI “have not done their jobs.”
“Our country is a disaster,” denounced Trump, who has said Biden’s leadership is “weak” and “ineffective.” In this sense, he has pointed out that the authorities have focused on attacking him for political interests “instead of protecting Americans from the external and internal violent scum that have infiltrated all aspects.”
The tycoon, who has again attacked the “open borders” policy, believes that “only a strong and powerful leader” will break this so-called spiral and has called on citizens to vote on January 20, the date on which he will take possession of the country , to change. his second term at the head of the country.
