Former U.S. President Donald Trump has slammed President Joe Biden’s handling of the Middle East, suggesting that the current administration’s approach could lead to World War III. Trump took to social media to question who is leading negotiations for the U.S. in the region, accusing Biden of being disconnected from the situation while vacationing in California.
In a post on X, Trump wrote, “Who is negotiating for us in the Middle East? Bombs are dropping all over the place! Sleepy Joe is sleeping on a beach in California, and Comrade Kamala is on a campaign bus tour with Tim Walz. Let’s not have World War III, because that’s where we’re heading!”
Trump also criticized Vice President Kamala Harris, calling her a poor choice for Vice President and claiming that her leadership would bring the U.S. closer to a nuclear conflict. He made these remarks after Harris reiterated her support for Israel’s right to defend itself during a speech at the Democratic National Convention.
In response to the ongoing conflict, Hezbollah has launched strikes against Israel, which they termed as the “first phase” of their response, claiming it was a “complete success,” according to CNN. The situation remains tense as both sides continue to engage in hostilities.
