Donald Trump, the Republican presidential candidate for the 2024 elections, fiercely criticized President Joe Biden following the official announcement of his withdrawal from the electoral race. "Corrupt Joe Biden was never fit to run for President, and he certainly isn’t fit to serve, and he never was!" Trump declared on the social media platform Truth Social after Biden's decision became public this Sunday.

According to Trump, Biden "only reached the position of President through lies, fake news, and by staying in his basement." Furthermore, he added, "Everyone around him, including his doctor and the media, knew he wasn’t capable of being President, and he wasn’t."

The former President and Republican candidate, who has seen a surge in popularity ahead of the presidential elections after surviving an assassination attempt, asserted that the United States would suffer greatly under Biden's tenure. "But we will quickly fix the damage he has done," he noted.

In his statement, he said, "Look at what he has done to our country," harshly criticizing the current administration. "Millions of people crossing our border, totally unchecked and unverified, many of them coming from prisons, mental institutions, and a record number of terrorists," emphasized Trump, who recently promised to seal the border on the first day if he wins the upcoming November presidential elections.

Last Thursday, Cuban-American congress members María Elvira Salazar and Carlos Giménez suggested that Trump's return to the Presidency of the United States, in what would be his second term, could bring an end to communism in Cuba.

As a preview of his policy towards Cuba, Trump harshly criticized the recent visit of the Russian Navy to the Caribbean nation during his acceptance speech for the presidential candidacy on the final day of the Republican National Convention held in Wisconsin.
