The former president of the United States Donald Trump has attacked the American president, Joe Biden, and has defended his management during his mandate after sweeping the Republican Party primaries held during the day known as ‘Super Tuesday’, in which fifteen states and one territory They have organized their votes.
“This has been an incredible night. “It has been an incredible period in the history of our country,” declared the former president, who took advantage of the occasion to maintain that Biden “is the worst president in the history” of the country, mentioning the Russian invasion of Ukraine, the attack by the Movement of Islamic Resistance (Hamas) to Israel and the presence of pro-Iranian militias in the Middle East, which have carried out several attacks in recent months, especially the Lebanese Shiite militia party Hezbollah.
In this sense, he has stated that if he had been in power “Russia would not have attacked Ukraine, Israel would not have been attacked, Iran had no money, (…) not even for Hezbollah”, while “there was no inflation”, that “is destroying the working class.” In addition, he has criticized Biden’s management at the border, where federal authorities are politically in conflict with the governor of Texas, Greg Abbott, over immigration control.
“They want open borders and open borders are going to destroy the country. We need borders and we need free and fair elections,” he declared before announcing that if he becomes President he will close the border and make “the country bigger than ever”: “We will win these elections because we have no other option.”

On the other hand, Trump has asserted that his Administration “got along well with many countries,” such as North Korea or China, until COVID-19 arrived, which emerged in the Chinese city of Wuhan. He has also pointed out that, then, the United States “did not have wars” and that he stopped them, “defeating the Islamic State in four weeks” and has criticized “the terrible withdrawal” of American troops from Afghanistan.
The magnate, who held a press conference from his Mar-a-Lago mansion in Florida, has acknowledged that the United States is “a very divided country,” as is the Republican Party, and has promised to unify both “ very soon”, although it is expected that he will not obtain the necessary delegates tonight to secure his nomination to the White House, but his campaign team hopes that victory will force his only Republican rival, Nikki Haley, to abandon the race.
Trump, the clear favorite of the Republican Party, has taken victory in more than a dozen states in votes in which he faced only Haley, since the rest of the Republicans who registered as candidates have been leaving the race due to to the large percentage difference with respect to the tycoon.
