President Joe Biden on Tuesday lambasted former President Donald Trump’s comments that he would « encourage » Russia to « do whatever the hell they want » to NATO-aligned countries that are « delinquent » — calling it « shocking » and « un-American. »
« The former president has set a dangerous, and shockingly, frankly un-American signal to the world, » Biden said in a speech at the White House.
Trump made the comments over the weekend, saying he wouldn’t protect a NATO nation that didn’t contribute enough defense funds. Trump’s remarks echo his long-standing criticism of the role the U.S. plays in providing security for other countries — including major allies.
