President Donald Trump absolutely wrecked Joe Biden over his job performance during an appearance on Fox Business.
Speaking to host David Asman, Trump brutally condemned the Biden administration for being a “disaster” and “totally unsuccessful” while facing multiple crises.
“Look, I wanted [Biden] to be successful on the on the whole thing on COVID — or as I call it, the China virus,” Trump said.
“I wanted him to be successful. He’s been totally unsuccessful,” he continued.
“It’s a disaster what’s happened.”
“What they’ve done to energy and energy prices is causing a tremendous amount of the inflation,” he said.
“We were energy-independent. In fact, I got the numbers so low for gasoline, it was down to $1.78 and I left it at $1.86 a gallon.”
Watch the clip:
Asman responded, “The strange thing is, Mr. President, is that the same time we’re asking the Russians and OPEC to increase their oil supply to bring prices down a bit, we’re shutting off pipelines in the United States, and they produce oil and gas in a much dirtier way than we do.”
“So if you care about the environment, shouldn’t we be encouraging U.S. production rather than Saudi and Russian production?” he asked.
“What’s happening with energy, nobody’s ever seen it,” Trump said. “In California — [gas] is $7.77 in certain areas of California.”
“People remember in a debate, also, I said, you’re going to have $5, $6, $7 gasoline, and even more than that, I just didn’t know I was going to be right so soon,” Trump explained.
Trump also warned, “Wait till you see what they do on guns. They’re going to be taking away the guns.”
“I will take care of this. I will end this,” Joe Biden says of the coronavirus pandemic.

More from Western Journal:
Trump noted that there have been “significantly” more American deaths attributed to the coronavirus on Biden’s watch than his own “despite all of the vaccines and the therapeutics” that were created under his administration.
The 45th president pointed out that Biden has failed to stem the pandemic despite having promised to “end it” in the lead-up to the 2020 election.
Trump said that in addition to mismanaging the pandemic, Biden has fomented runaway inflation and enabled an unprecedented border crisis as mass caravans of unvetted illegal aliens flood the country.
He partially blamed Biden’s vaccine mandate for causing the nationwide supply chain disruptions.
He also noted that crime has exploded in Democrat-controlled cities because of the left’s catastrophic “defund the police” hysteria.
Trump added that Biden’s irresponsible energy policies are directly contributing to skyrocketing inflation…
Trump said after Biden destroyed America’s energy independence, he humiliated the country further by begging the Organization of the Petroleum Exporting Countries to increase oil production to counteract soaring gas prices. The oil cartel refused.

"This is a crisis of the Biden Administration's making and it's been intentional every step of the way," says @NedRyun. pic.twitter.com/CMfjGsB40f

The Biden administration is not shutting down oil production and then tapping into our strategic oil reserves because they are “stupid.”
It is intentional. They are manufacturing an oil crisis to push us to green energy.
They don’t care about you. In fact, they hate you.
