In an unusual speech this week, President Joe Biden, 81, said that China, Russia, and Japan are all “xenophobic.”
Japan, a steadfast friend of the United States, serves as a check on China’s increasing assertiveness in the Asia-Pacific region. Biden has been trying to establish trust with Japan lately. He held a summit and state banquet for Prime Minister Fumio Kishida in April.
In real time, Biden stated that the US economy was robust in part “because we accept immigrants” at a campaign event in Washington to commemorate the start of Asian American, Native Hawaiian, and Pacific Islander Heritage Month.
Next, Biden compared the United States to its adversaries, China and Russia, as well as its friend, Japan. “Consider it,” Biden remarked, alluding to the purported difficulties of their economies.
“Why is China’s economy slowing so badly? Why is everything in Japan going wrong? He said, “Why is Russia?”
He answered, “Because they are xenophobic.” “They oppose immigration.”
Biden’s blunder highlights his extreme immigration policies. The Biden administration pursues the controversial Extraction Migration economic program. Neil Munro of Breitbart News commented, “This colonialism-like approach decreases beneficial commerce, takes enormous quantities of human resources out of needy nations, and utilizes the imported workers, renters, and customers to develop Wall Street and metropolitan economies, such as New York.”
“The influx of migrants has effectively driven down American salaries while simultaneously driving up housing and rental costs. Along with pushing many native-born Americans out of a wide range of business sectors, immigration has also increased the number of Americans dying impoverished. By providing coastal capitalists with subsidies in the form of a wave of low-wage labor, high-occupancy renters, and government-aided customers, the deadly strategy also steals jobs and money from heartland states. Because elites may distance themselves from the needs and interests of common Americans due to population replacement, the inflow of people also lessens the political influence of native-born Americans.”
Biden faced criticism for his charge.
Jeffrey Hall, a professor of Japanese studies at Kanda University of International Studies in Chiba, Japan, told CNBC that discussing one of America’s closest friends in a diplomatic manner is not appropriate. “In this particular scenario, I just feel that it is not necessary to state it.”
“It is not really an effective means of encouraging Japan to correct many flaws in its society that even Japanese people would admit are problems,” Hall continued. “It will seem like America is talking down to the Japanese once again.”
Biden has erred over the past few days. It seemed like Biden was having trouble speaking during last week’s campaign speech. The video reveals that instead of halting his speech to enable applause, he read the word “pause” off the teleprompter.
Imagine what we could accomplish next, stated Biden. “An additional four years. Hold on.
Special Counsel Robert Hur described Biden as “an old man with a weak memory,” and it seems like he makes mistakes on a regular basis. “Are you prepared to put freedom above democracy?” In April, Biden requested support.
