WATCH: Trump Jr. DESTROYS Biden For Policies That Led to Record-High Gas Prices

As Americans face skyrocketing fuel costs amid unrest in Ukraine, many people are looking for someone to blame.

Even as Democrats attempt to circle the wagons around Joe Biden, plenty of prominent Republicans say the White House bears much of the responsibility.

Among the most vocal critics of the current administration is Donald Trump Jr.

During a recent event, he eviscerated Biden and the Democratic Party for various policies that he insisted have been detrimental to the nation.

According to Forsyth County News:

Serving as the event’s keynote speaker, Trump immediately thanked the local voters for their support and described his campaign as the “I told you so tour” for the performance of President Joe Biden.

“The one place where the Biden administration and Democrats have overperformed is I thought it would take them much longer to destroy our country,” Trump said. “I figured; four years will be a disaster. We’re one year in, we have three more years of the nonsense to go.”

Trump’s criticisms of Biden included rising gas prices, higher inflation and the handling of the Russian invasion of Ukraine, saying “They’re taking your money to give to Russia to fund the war that they say they are against.”

Trump’s harsh assessment of the Biden administration — and Democrats in general — has also been a common theme on Twitter.

Democrats hate America. That should be clear to anyone watching their policies. No one should be surprised that the majority of Dems wouldn’t fight for their country if invaded. They’ll just move to the communist utopia of their choosing and find out what it’s like the hard way. https://t.co/EvV3eq6TVE

Remember folks gas prices started skyrocketing as soon as Joe Biden took office, it’ll get worse but Democrat policies started all this not Russia.

These are not serious people. They are also not people who are actually trying to help Americans struggling with these increased costs. https://t.co/YqpvgL4KIZ

For his part, Biden had attempted to defend his own policies against backlash from the likes of Trump.

As The Hill explained:

President Biden on Tuesday pushed back against criticism from Republicans that his energy policies are to blame for soaring gas prices during an announcement that the U.S. would no longer allow imports of Russian oil.

In his remarks on Russian oil imports, Biden argued that his administration’s policies are not limiting domestic energy production, insisting the U.S. needs to invest in clean energy so Americans are not at the mercy of gas prices.

“It’s simply not true that my administration or policies are holding back domestic energy production. That’s simply not true,” Biden said. “Even amid the pandemic, companies in the U.S. pumped more oil during my first year in office than they did during my predecessor’s first year.”

As motorists are forced to shell out an increasing amount of money to fill up their tanks each day, however, it seems clear that many of them are placing the blame squarely on Biden’s shoulders.

Here’s a clip of Trump’s recent remarks.
