President-elect Donald Trump on Thursday excoriated President Joe Biden's handling of border security in the wake of two suspected terrorist attacks in New Orleans and Las Vegas.

"With the Biden 'Open Border’s Policy' I said, many times during Rallies, and elsewhere, that Radical Islamic Terrorism, and other forms of violent crime, will become so bad in America that it will become hard to even imagine or believe," he posted on Truth Social. "That time has come, only worse than ever imagined."

Trump's remarks follow a New Year's Eve episode in New Orleans wherein Shamsud Din Jabbar, a U.S. Army veteran and American citizen, drove a vehicle at high speed into a crowd in the city's French Quarter, killing at least fifteen and injuring dozens more. Biden confirmed that Jabbar had posted support for ISIS prior to the attack.

Fox News reported that the vehicle used in the incident crossed the southern border on Nov. 16, but Din Jabbar didn't appear to be the driver.

In Las Vegas, moreover, a Tesla Cybertruck detonated outside the lobby of the Trump Hotel. Authorities believe the driver filled the vehicle with incendiary and explosive materials.

"Joe Biden is the WORST PRESIDENT IN THE HISTORY OF AMERICA, A COMPLETE AND TOTAL DISASTER," Trump added. "What he and his group of Election Interfering “thugs” have done to our Country will not soon be forgotten! MAGA"
