Biden blasts Trump's 'embarrassing' actions heading into G-7 summit
Former Vice President Joe Biden excoriated President Trump Friday over his embarrassing actions toward U.S. allies just before the president heads to France for the G-7 summit.
The White House hopeful, who has repeatedly touted the need to restore Americas reputation abroad on the campaign trail, singled Trump out for the controversy over his desire to purchase Greenland and bashed him over his recent criticism about the U.S. alliess financial contributions to NATO and his calls for Russia to rejoin the G-7.
He has insulted our closest partners and denigrated one of our most capable allies, Denmarka country that has repeatedly fought and sacrificed alongside our troops. He issued yet another attack on NATO, reiterating his belief that NATO is an American-run protection racket where our allies better pay up, or else," Biden said in a statement.
"And he advocated for Russias return to the G7, despite Vladimir Putins long and growing record of aggressive behavior and provocations against the United States and our allies in Europe, Biden added.
Trumps actions and words are not just embarrassingthey are making the American people less safe. Every incident further isolates us on the global stage, reinforcing that his version of America First means America alone, the former vice president also said.
