Former President Donald Trump on Thursday offered up a prebuttal to President Biden’s State of the Union address, saying the Democrat’s failures should lead voters to tell him “YOU’RE FIRED” in the November election.

Mr. Trump, who popularized the “fired” catchphrase as host of the “Apprentice” reality TV show, said voters should dismiss whatever Mr. Biden says and instead focus on the “horrific devastation” his administration has caused across the country — particularly at the U.S.-Mexico border.

“No matter what Crooked Joe says, his actions prove his priority is to import a colossal new illegal alien population and let them all stay — my priority is securing our border, and sending Crooked Joe’s illegals back home,” Mr. Trump said in a video email blast.

Mr. Trump also said Mr. Biden is responsible for inflation and the rising costs of goods that have hurt American consumers.

“Likewise, the sight of a feeble Joe Biden talking about ’shrinkflation’ — the term he uses — is one of the most ridiculous things this country has ever seen. Shrinkflation is just another way of saying INFLATION — it means that you’re losing a lot of money because these people don’t know what they’re doing. It was all caused by Crooked Joe and the people that surround him — and they are radical Left Marxists and Fascists and Communists and Socialists.

“It’s time to tell Crooked Joe Biden, ’YOU’RE FIRED,’” he said.
