Trump Sends Serious Warning to Biden

President-elect Donald Trump has warned outgoing President Joe Biden to stop selling border wall materials, which the Biden administration has been selling off for pennies on the dollar as part of an effort to undermine Trump’s plans to secure the border.

Trump gave the warning during a Monday morning press conference at his Mar-a-Lago home in Palm Beach, Florida, where he asked Biden to stop selling the border wall materials — noting that the American people clearly voted for border security in the 2024 presidential election, which means that Biden is directly undermining the will of the people.

“I’m asking today, Joe Biden, to please stop selling the wall,” he said. “We’re going to use that to create a strong barrier. And it worked. That’s why our numbers were so good. It really worked and it worked well and it’s very expensive to do. And I’m asking Joe Biden to stop his people from giving it away.”

He went on to note that the American people “can’t even believe” that the Biden administration would stoop so low to be selling off border wall materials in a government auction — adding that “hopefully Joe will be able to stop it.”

Trump’s comments came in response to an exclusive report from The Daily Wire revealing that the Biden administration had been auctioning off border wall materials that have been sitting unused at the southern border since Trump left office. Of course, Biden waited until he had just one month left of his presidency before taking this action, further confirming that this is part of an effort to undermine Trump’s presidency. The report showed that the administration had begun selling the materials in a government auction starting at just $5.

In response to these criminal actions, Texas Lt. Gov. Dan Patrick (R) has vowed to purchase every piece of border wall material and give them back to the Trump administration — stating: “So, I’m going to find out first thing in the morning where are we going to take the bid. I’ve got a billion dollars in my pocket to do it. I write the budget with Senator John Huffman. We have the money. We’re going to have about $6 billion in our budget for border security. We’ll buy it.”

Meanwhile, Trump went on to point out that the materials being sold off are now going to cost the American taxpayer a much higher price if he were to have to buy them again.

“It’s very expensive and now it’s about double the price of what it would have been six years ago,” the president-elect said. “And the administration is trying to sell it for five cents on the dollar, knowing that we’re getting ready to put it up.”

Trump then argued that the Biden administration’s actions are “almost a criminal act.”

“They know we’re gonna use it,” he said. “And if we don’t have it, we’re gonna have to rebuild it and it’ll cost double what it cost years ago and that’s hundreds of millions of dollars because you’re talking about a lot of wall.”

Trump also pointed out that “people have already come back to us that have deals at five cents and four cents and one guy at three cents on the dollar and they offered to sell it back to us at more money than it costs us to build substantially.”

He concluded by revealing that he had already spoken with Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton (R) and Texas senators, who he believes will “hopefully be able to stop” the Biden administration’s actions — adding: “We’re going to be, you know, having a restraining order.”
