Victor Davis Hanson: Joe Biden’s Disastrous Foreign Policy and False Claims

Jan 18, 2025

In this edition of “Victor Davis Hanson: In His Own Words,” Hanson critiques President Joe Biden’s claims about his own foreign policy in the waning days of his presidency.

“So why would you claim that you had done this outstanding achievement? And the war is not over. It’s the worst carnage in Europe since the Battle of Stalingrad—1.7 million dead, wounded or missing. It’s nothing to brag about. It’s a complete catastrophe.”

“He said that he was tough on China. He said China wasn’t our rival. He allowed a Chinese spy balloon to traverse the United States. For a week, he did nothing.”

“Trump didn’t have a war in Afghanistan because you lost it. And you humiliated us. And you destroyed deterrence…this was the single greatest disaster in foreign policy in a century, and yet, he had the audacity to go before the State Department and claim it was a great success.”
