Fiery address at his Mar-a-Lago resort, former President Donald Trump didn’t hold back as he lambasted incumbent President Joe Biden, painting a grim picture of America’s current state. The charismatic Republican, riding high on victories in a dozen states, including the delegate-rich California and Texas, used the occasion to launch a scathing critique of the Biden administration.
Trump’s focus on the issue of immigration took center stage in his address to jubilant supporters. He accused Biden of being responsible for what he termed as “Biden migrant crime,” asserting that American cities were being overwhelmed by a surge in criminal activities.
“In our streets, there are fistfights with police officers… The world is laughing at us. The world is taking advantage of us,” Trump declared with palpable disdain, emphasizing his narrative of a nation in chaos under Biden’s leadership.
