WASHINGTON – Today, Republican National Committee (RNC) Spokesman and Director of APA Media Nainoa Johsens released the following statement on Biden’s trip to Asia:
“Joe Biden’s failure tour continues with his trip to Japan and South Korea. From his disastrous Afghanistan withdrawal to failing to keep Putin in check to refusing to hold China accountable for its coverup surrounding COVID-19, America is clearly less safe because of Biden and his weakness. The latest news that Hunter Biden earned millions from his Chinese business partners during his father’s time as Vice President overshadows the trip and is further proof that Biden can’t be trusted to defend America.”
Background:
- Hunter Biden earned over $10 million from “his work with a Chinese businessman now accused of fraud.”
- A former FBI assistant for counterintelligence said “there is a national security risk when foreign powers like China see an opportunity to get close to someone like [Joe] Biden.”
- North Korea is testing intercontinental missiles, including one that could be tested while Biden is in Asia.
- The BBC has said these tests are “a message to the Biden administration of the North's growing military prowess.”
- Instead, Biden has spent the first year of his presidency handing Putin geopolitical win after geopolitical win, pressuring Democrats to effectively filibuster sanctions on Nord Stream 2.
- Biden resumed funding for the WHO despite China’s significant influence over the organization.
- Biden promised to keep Putin in check. He failed.
- Biden has failed to confront China on the origins of the coronavirus after promising he would “insist ” on getting answers.
