US President Joe Biden commented on former President Donald Trump's victory in the Republican Party primary elections in New Hampshire, considering that American democracy and the economy are "at stake."
“It is now clear that Donald Trump will be the Republican nominee,” Biden wrote in a statement distributed by his presidential campaign. “My message to the country is that the stakes could not be higher. Our democracy, our personal freedoms, and our economy, which has seen the strongest recovery in the world since the Corona virus. Everything is at stake. ".
He thanked his supporters who wrote his name on the ballot in New Hampshire, which allowed him to win the Democratic primary in the state.
"I want to thank everyone who wrote my name this evening in New Hampshire," he said. "It was a historic demonstration of commitment to our democratic process. And I want to say to all those independents and Republicans who share our commitment to our nation's core values, our democracy, our personal freedoms, and an economy that gives everyone a chance." Fair, that they join us as Americans."
It is noteworthy that New Hampshire held its primary elections, maintaining its tradition as the first state in the country to witness this event, in violation of the decision of the Democratic Committee, which recommended starting with South Carolina.
This led to actions against the state, prohibiting Biden from campaigning or putting his name on the ballot in the state.
Trump was able to grab the Republican Party's nomination for the New Hampshire primary election by defeating his only competitor, former Washington delegate to the United Nations, Nikki Haley.
A heated confrontation over the border. Musk chooses between Texas and Washington
American billionaire Elon Musk praised the idea of Texas Governor Greg Abbott to defend the United States border with Mexico, without the help of the US federal authorities.
On his page on the social networking site “X”, Abbott shared photos of the Texas National Guard.
“Hold the line” in the border town of Eagle Pass, he wrote, promising that Texas would not abandon efforts to secure the US border with Mexico even in the absence of President Joe Biden.
Musk commented on this with the word: “Good!”
Earlier, in his comment on the decision to remove the barbed wire fence from the border , the American billionaire accused the Biden administration of actively promoting illegal immigration.
Texas authorities are in conflict with federal authorities over border security measures. For example, the US administration complained to the country's Supreme Court against the country's leadership after the National Guard prevented federal patrols from reaching the border.
Texas authorities insist that the border is not properly secured, which has led to record numbers of illegal immigrants entering the United States.
Washington describes the state's actions as unconstitutional and the measures are excessive, because the law, in particular, criminalizes what is already prohibited at the federal level and Texas authorities insist that federal legislation in this area does not work.
In recent months, the United States recorded a record growth in illegal immigration, and last December, the Border Guard monitored 302,000 cases of illegal border crossing, which is the largest indicator in one month.
