Trump accuses Biden of being a puppet of China, comparing him to the ‘Manchurian Candidate’.
Trump Slams Biden’s Ties to China
Former President Donald Trump didn’t hold back during his debate-night interview with Tucker Carlson. He took the opportunity to criticize President Joe Biden for his connections to communist China.
“He gets millions of dollars. China pays this guy millions of dollars,” Trump said in the sitdown interview. “I think he’s the most corrupt president we’ve ever had. He also has the distinction of being the most incompetent. And I believe both. I mean, he’s both incompetent and corrupt.”
Hunter Biden’s Controversial Message
Recent testimony from IRS whistleblower Gary Shapley revealed a concerning WhatsApp message from Hunter Biden to Chinese businessman Henry Zhao. In the message, Hunter threatened to use his father’s position to ensure certain promises were kept.
“I am sitting here with my father and we would like to understand why the commitment made has not been fulfilled,” the message reads. “I am very concerned that the Chairman has either changed his mind and broken our deal without telling me or that he is unaware of the promises and assurances that have been made that have not been kept.”
Ten days after the message was sent, CEFC sent millions of dollars to a bank account linked to Hunter and his dad.
Biden’s Compromised Position
Biden’s acceptance of money from a company linked to China, the United States’ top foreign enemy, according to Trump, raises concerns about his compromised position.
“I actually believe he’s compromised because China knows so much about him,” Trump admitted. “They know where the money comes from. They know where it is, who paid it and they probably paid it.”
Trump goes as far as calling Biden a “Manchurian Candidate” due to his willingness to sacrifice his own nation for foreign profit.
“He’s a corrupt person, so corrupt that I took the name of Hillary — I don’t do two people at one time — I took the crooked Hillary and I made it, I retired that, it was a good day for her. I’ll bet she was very happy. And I used it for a Joe because it’s crooked Joe,” Trump explained.
Biden’s Threat to National Security
In Trump’s eyes, “crooked Joe Biden” isn’t just a national security threat because of his ties to China. He’s also a liability due to his mental and physical deterioration.
“He’s the worst president in the history of our country. I don’t think he’s going to make it to the gate,” Trump said.
“You don’t think he’s gonna make it to November of 2024?” Tucker asked.
“I think he’s worse mentally than he is physically and physically, he’s not exactly a triathlete or any kind of an athlete,” Trump said.
Trump even pointed out Biden’s physical limitations, stating that he “can’t walk to the helicopter,” “he can’t lift a chair” on the beach, and has “skinny legs.”
“He’s just incompetent,” Trump concluded.
