Former President Donald Trump accused President Joe Biden of being scared of China and Russia during a Wednesday interview with Daily Caller co-founder Tucker Carlson. “He, in many ways, is a Manchurian candidate. We have a Manchurian candidate and he’s afraid to tell Russia to get out of Cuba. He’s afraid to tell China to get out of Cuba. China now is building. Think of this, China’s building military installations in Cuba,” Trump charged.
Referring to the Panama Canal, Trump warned of China’s expanding influence throughout the region, and vowed that “if I’m president, they’ll get out because I have a very good relationship with President Xi [Jianping] and he respected this country, he respected me.”
Moving beyond Cuba and Panama, Trump continued to lambast Biden, calling him the “most corrupt” and “incompetent” president in U.S. history and “compromised.” He alleges the Biden family made sizable profits from foreign business deals abroad, “[they] know where the money comes from, they know where it is and who paid it. They probably paid it. Well, they do pay Penn and he gets $1 million, it’s $999,000 because it keeps it a little bit under $1 million by $1.”
Trump’s accusations, which are echoed in various whistleblower testimonies, suggest Biden has actively sought to continue and extend his family’s wealth evasion through corruption dealings with foreign entities.

With Biden refusing to publicly address the situation, this could be a sign that the Biden administration is merely “afraid to tell Russia to get out of Cuba” and are instead continuing to let the deals fray away. This would put the United States in a precarious position when it comes to international relations, and could leave American citizens in the dark about their president’s foreign dealings.
The thing with Cuba is so strange given that the Biden administration has pushed the US in between the Russia and Ukraine conflict.
