Former President and 2024 GOP frontrunner Donald Trump released an official statement on Friday reacting to President Biden’s decision to send 3,000 reservists to Europe.
“Just last week, Biden shockingly admitted that our arsenals are so badly depleted that the United States is running out of ammunition,” Trump said. “Now, we see the ranks are growing so thin that reserve troops are being forced to support Biden’s calamitous policy in Europe, while our own borders remain undefended.”
Joe issued an order for the troops on Friday; Trump says it’s an escalation of the war in Ukraine.
“Joe Biden can’t even walk up the steps of Air Force One without tripping,” Trump said. “The last thing this incompetent administration should be doing is pushing us further toward World War III.”
“Yet Biden has proclaimed that he will continue sending American treasure and weaponry to fuel endless war in Ukraine for “as long as it takes.” When I am reelected, it will take 24 hours. This conflict must end. Not one American mother or father wants to send their child to die in Eastern Europe. We must have PEACE.
“As President, I will AGAIN rebuild America’s military and restore the readiness and deterrence that Joe Biden has so dangerously squandered, and I will return to a foreign policy that puts AMERICA FIRST, so that we can once again have PEACE THROUGH STRENGTH.”
