WASHINGTON, DC: Keeping up with his tradition, President Donald Trump once again used his Memorial Day messages to the nation to blast former President Joe Biden's administration.

The 78-year-old president started his day early on Monday, May 26, with a furious rant aimed at Biden’s administration, members of the judicial branch, and other “monsters who want our country to go to hell.”

Donald Trump calls Joe Biden a 'scum' and an 'incompetent president' in Memorial Day rant

“Happy Memorial Day to all, including the scum that spent the last four years trying to destroy our country through warped radical left minds,” Donald Trump wrote in an all-caps tirade on Truth Social, according to the Daily Mail.

The commander-in-chief then continued to claim that the Biden administration allowed millions of immigrants to "illegally enter our country, many of them being criminals and the mentally insane."



 

Trump also blamed the current immigration crisis on "an incompetent president" and "judges who are on a mission to keep murderers, drug dealers, rapists, gang members and released prisoners from all over the world in our country so they can rob, murder and rape again. All protected by these USA hating judges who suffer from an ideology that is sick, and very dangerous for our country."

The 78-year-old was bluntly dismissive of judges who blocked his deportation orders, expressing his desire for the Supreme Court to rein in their efforts to limit deportations.

"Hopefully, the United States Supreme Court, and other good and compassionate judges throughout the land, will save us from the decisions of the monsters who want our country to go to hell," he wrote. 

"But fear not, we have made great progress over the last 4 months, and America will soon be safe and great again! Again, Happy Memorial Day, and God Bless America!" the president concluded.

However, just a few minutes later, Trump deleted the post and replaced the furious rant with a quite generic message, reading "Happy Memorial Day."



 

Not so surprisingly, the message didn’t last long, and about half an hour later, the MAGA leader reposted his original message with a couple of minor tweaks, including a promise to make America "great again."

Donald Trump blasts Biden administration in Memorial Day speech at Arlington National Cemetery

Donald Trump’s furious all-caps tirade wasn’t the only attack on his predecessor. Later in the day, the president doubled down on his attacks as he veered off script to blast Joe Biden in his Memorial Day address at Arlington National Cemetery.



 

Trump spoke for around 17 minutes at the annual event honoring US service men killed in war.

"Those young men could never have known what their sacrifice would mean to us, but we certainly know what we owe to them. That valor gave us the freest, greatest, and most noble Republic ever to exist on the face of the earth. A republic that I am fixing after a long and hard four years," he said, as per The Daily Beast.

"That was a hard four years we went through. Who would let that happen? People are pouring through our borders unchecked. People doing things that are indescribable and not for today to discuss," the 78-year-old continued.

While still avoiding saying Biden's name outright, he promised, "We will do better than we've ever done as a nation, better than ever before. I promise you that."
