President-elect Donald Trump blamed President Joe Biden’s “open border” policy for exposing the United States to violent crime and ISIS threats after several possible terrorism attacks left the country reeling on New Year’s Day.
Trump said Thursday morning that Biden, whom he described as “the worst president in the history of America,” has set policies that have fueled a rise of “Radical Islamic Terrorism” and other atrocities in the U.S.
“With the Biden ‘Open Border’s Policy’ I said, many times during Rallies, and elsewhere, that Radical Islamic Terrorism, and other forms of violent crime, will become so bad in America that it will become hard to even imagine or believe,” the president-elect said in a statement to Truth Social.
