North Dakota Gov. Kristi Noem eviscerated President Joe Biden during her speech Friday at the Conservative Political Action Convention (CPAC) for pulling off yet another foreign policy blunder. She discussed a variety of issues, including the COVID-19 pandemic, special counsel John Durham’s recent bombshell revelations about the 2016 Clinton campaign, and the Democrats’ many failures over last year.

But it was her comments about Biden’s handling of Russia’s military aggression against Ukraine that elicited the most fervent response. She opened her speech by acknowledging the suffering of the people in Ukraine who are being attacked by the Russian government. “The hell of war has come to their country,” Noem said. “And we ever needed a reminder that leadership has consequences, that it matters.”

The governor then pivoted to the president, noting that “the last 48 hours has shown us what happens when America projects weakness” and asserted, “that is exactly what President Biden has done.”

Noem said “a strong president would put their citizens first,” and listed off a series of steps a “strong president” would take to deal with the crisis domestically:

“Number one, they’d start and expedite the Keystone XL pipeline. They’d reopen our federal lands for drilling and oil and natural gas exploration. They’d revoke the bans on oil and gas leases on the outer continental shelf. They would sign an executive order that cut all the regulations of domestic energy production and its transport to American and European markets.”

The governor continued, explaining how a “strong American president” would handle the issue internationally:

“A strong American President would work with European allies and partners to replace their supply of Russian oil supplies with American energy. Then they would hit Putin right where it actually hurts by enacting heavy sanctions on the Russian energy sector. They’d lead NATO and other Western allies to cut Russia off from the Western economy, banking, financial systems, including SWIFT.”

Noem then declared that “if Joe Biden can’t or he won’t do these things, then he should resign. He should resign before his weak leadership and poor decision-making drag America back into another dangerous war.”

The conflict between Ukraine and Russia has been a focal point of several speakers addressing the crowd at CPAC 2022. Noem’s words seem to reflect how many Americans view the White House’s approach to the situation.

A recent Fox News survey revealed that 56 percent of respondents believe the president has not been tough enough on the Russian government. About 29 percent feel he is handling the issue appropriately.

Another Fox poll revealed that the president’s rating on foreign policy is at a dismal 38 percent approval and 58 percent disapproval. Incidentally, his approval in this area, as horrible as it is, stands higher than on immigration, crime, and the economy.

If Noem’s comments on President Biden’s performance during the Russia/Ukraine crisis are any indication, America just received another reason to vote against Democrats in 2022 and 2024.
