On Wednesday, Republican Senator Ron Johnson ripped into President Joe Biden, saying that was “weakening America” with every move he made.

Johnson, who recently announced he is running for re-election in Wisconsin, tore the Biden record to shreds during an interview on Fox Business Network’s “Mornings with Maria.”

Johnson went through a laundry list of problems that have cropped up in just one year of the Biden presidency. 

“The first day or two of office, what did he do?” Johnson asked. “He canceled the Keystone XL pipeline. He relaxed sanctions on the Nord Stream 2 pipeline, which was a clear signal to Putin that we’re going to be weak; we’re going to let you walk all over us.”

Johnson also flipped the script, using a common left-wing talking point used against President Trump and turning it on Biden:

“I continue to wonder to what extent that President Biden is compromised,” the senator wondered. “Just about every action he has taken as president has weakened America.”

“He opens the border,” the Republican began. “We have an unbelievable, out-of-control flow of illegal immigrants, out-of-control deficit spending, inflation set a 40-year high, the embarrassing and dangerous surrender in Afghanistan.”

“This is weakness. This is real weakness,” he insisted. “He is weakening America.”

The senator added, “Our enemies perceive that — they’re noticing it, and they’re becoming more aggressive. They’re taking advantage of the situation.”

Johnson then gave his analysis of current foreign affairs.

“Russia is surrounding Ukraine, “Johnson noted. “China is over-flying Taiwan. Iran is getting more active in Yemen. North Korea is testing new weapons. This is across the board.”

Johnson added, “The bad actors around the world are perceiving our weakness when America is not strong. And I agree with President Reagan — you achieve peace through strength. But that strength starts with economic strength.”

“And President Biden is weakening our economy,” he said. “He’s weakening our military.”

“He’s weakening America,” Johnson finished.
