Last Thursday, Biden used his speech during the D-Day anniversary commemoration ceremony to rally support for Ukraine and made no mention of the crucial role that the Soviet Union played in defeating Nazi Germany. He also drew parallels between the allied fight during WWII and the West's support for Ukraine's current war effort.
The next day, in separate remarks in Normandy, Biden claimed that US troops who fought in the Second World War would want the United States to stand up against Russia in Ukraine today.
"Veterans would be ashamed of what Biden is doing today," Vandergriff said. "They wanted to prevent war through strength, and the last resort, having experienced war first-hand, is to prevent it through strength."
The US has not even tried to resolve the Ukraine conflict diplomatically, Vandergriff said.
"It is horrible that in two and half years, there have been no peace overtures even attempted by the United States," he said.
Biden's entire D-Day speech was "horrible" and was a "campaign speech," while it should have been dedicated to veterans and those who fought to free Europe from the Nazis, Vandergriff observed.
"In a horrible way, he was trying to emulate Reagan's speech in 1984. It was not even close," Vandergriff noted. "Biden, in my opinion, based on 40 years of intense research on warfare, leadership and strategy, is the worst, most corrupt and weakest president we have ever had."
Even though it was the Soviet Union that crushed Nazi Germany, Russia did not receive an invitation from France to participate in the celebrations of the 80th anniversary of D-Day.
