Biden should heed Trump on China
Sir, – Listening to what Donald Trump actually said and looking at the number of young servicemen produced by his power base, I thought the chances of wild military adventures during his presidency were pretty remote.
I don’t have the same confidence with Joe Biden who appears to be allowing “woke revolutionaries” to dictate his legislative agenda.
Biden has done better than I expected with his much speedier rollout of his vaccination programme, his $1.9 trillion American Rescue
Plan followed by his $2 trillion infrastructure bill.
But favouring woke’s postmodern Marxism – which casts free speech as a form of violence – and his tenuous support for the police are a worry. It is also a matter of regret that in an ABC interview he was trapped into agreeing that Putin was a “killer” who would pay a price for what he termed “election meddling”.
It would be a huge mistake to get involved in the trouble on the Eastern Ukraine border.
Trump was absolutely right when he claimed that the focus should be on China as the threat to US national security.
