Former President Donald Trump called out President Joe Biden and his administration as “stupid,” during a rally in Wilmington, North Carolina.

“I was right about Ukraine. I was right about what, Taiwan, and I’m hoping I’m not going to be right about World War Three because we have stupid people dealing,” Trump told the crowd.

“You could end up in World War III and this will be a war like we’ve never had before -– won’t even be close, because we’re being run by stupid people,” the former President added.

Trump also responded to Russian President Vladimir Putin‘s threat to use nuclear weapons as he ordered the mobilization of 300,000 reservists in the country’s war on Ukraine.

He went on to add that Putin never would have threatened nuclear action if he were still the President.

The remainder of Trump’s speech included harsh criticism of his political enemies such as Rep. Liz Cheney (R-Wyoming) who is co-chair of the January 6 committee investigating the Capitol attack and New York Attorney Gen. Letitia James (D) whose office is investigating the Trump Organization for allegedly inflating property valuations to benefit from tax breaks.
