Former United States President Donald Trump claimed that the allegations of Hunter Biden's involvement in illegal dealings with a Ukrainian company are "the biggest scandal in US history and perhaps the world." Trump called US President Joe Biden "the most corrupt" president in US history. "The Bidens got millions of dollars from Ukraine, now Ukraine gets billions and billions of dollars from the American taxpayer," he said.
Trump said Congress should refuse to authorize any additional military aid to Ukraine until federal agencies turn over evidence of the Bidens' dealings with Ukrainian companies. He added that Congress should block Biden's decision to call up reserve units for deployment in Europe, saying that "not a single American life should be put at risk because Biden has been paid off."
