Former President Donald Trump, seeking to capitalize on President Joe Biden's sagging approval ratings among young Americans, delivered a fiery speech Saturday night in Tampa, Florida.
"Now we are a beggar nation," Trump told the young crowd of the Turning Point Action Summit. "We are a beggar nation, with Biden down on his knees pleading for energy from all over the globe — going to Venezuela, Saudi Arabia, going to countries all over the globe asking for help.
"And we have more liquid gold under our feet than all of these other countries that you hear about and that they talk about all the time. We have more liquid gold than they do. Can you imagine this?"
Trump pointed to the failed energy policies of a country like Germany, which he excoriated for selling out to the "climate change hoax" pushed by "radical left Democrats."

Trump continued: "Remember they laughed at the United Nations when I made the speech and these German guys — and I have a little German in my blood, I'll tell you — they were laughing? They thought it was so funny, so cute that I was saying this.
"And it turned out to be right. And nobody knew it would happen so soon. But I said this is going to end very badly for Germany — very, very badly."

Joe Biden bans oil, then begs for oil. And nobody on the Left thinks that the two things are related.
The left says it is all Trump’s fault.
Before Brandon is done with us, we’ll all be beggars.
President Trump is only half right, we are not only a Begger Nation, we are a dying nation. No, Dying Empire is a better term.
I seriously doubt a man as capable as President Trump would be able to resuscitate the United States after four full years of Biden, the Democrats, Republican insiders & the Deep State completly in charge.
Not only we are now a beggar nation, but we already are in debt to our eyeballs. Only Rand Paul speaks out about the debt. All others are happily spending tax payers monehy and borrowing more debt.
Lookout for #1 if you wish to survive what’s coming.
Jo Jo was out mooching a gas can full of gas from the Arabs when he should have been mooching a bottle of water. Our lakes and river are going dry.
Use a search engine to track the national debt historically, and then go to one of the debt "clocks" to watch the mess which is politically-demanded borrowing. We've been begging for decades now, and the rage against Trump's leading to energy independence -- which the Democrats turned off quickly under Biden -- shows the game clearly.
Now We Are a Beggar Nation
The people who rigged and voted for it got it.
