Former President Donald Trump assailed the primetime address delivered by President Joe Biden late last week, calling his speech on Israel "one of the most dangerous and deluded speeches ever from the Oval Office."
Trump seemed to take issue with the fact that Biden announced $60 billion for Ukraine in his urgent funding request to Congress. Meanwhile, Biden's proposal included $14 billion for Israel, by comparison, and $10 billion for humanitarian purposes in war-torn Gaza. Biden bundled the aid request in the hopes that it would grease the skids for congressional approval; more funding for Ukraine is being met with increasing resistance by congressional Republicans.
"Less than one week after innocent men, women, children and babies were kidnapped, raped, tortured, slaughtered in the worst terror attack in Israeli history, was the worst in the history actually. Babies, I guess they said 42 babies with their heads chopped off. Think of that one. No one wanted to talk about it," Trump said.
