United States Senator Bill Hagerty recently appeared on Fox Business's "Mornings with Maria" to discuss his views on the Biden-Harris Administration's economic and foreign policies. The senator, who serves on the Senate Banking and Foreign Relations Committees, expressed strong criticism of the current administration's approach.

Senator Hagerty described the economic policies under Vice President Kamala Harris as disastrous for America. He stated, "Well, the economic policies of this Administration under Kamala Harris have been an absolute disaster for America." According to Hagerty, a significant portion of Americans believe the country is headed in the wrong direction due to declining real wages and rising inflation.

Hagerty also criticized the foreign policy strategies of President Joe Biden and Vice President Harris. He remarked, "Well, if you look at the foreign policy of this Administration, it’s absolutely pathetic." The senator highlighted issues such as the withdrawal from Afghanistan and changes in Iran sanctions as examples of failed policies that have weakened U.S. standing globally.

On domestic political matters, Hagerty accused Vice President Harris of inconsistency in her positions. He said she has shown a "complete lack of integrity" by changing stances on key issues to appeal to different voter groups.

Discussing Iran's nuclear ambitions, Hagerty emphasized that during former President Trump's tenure, measures were taken to limit Iran's capabilities. He warned that if Kamala Harris assumes office again, Iran might continue its activities unchecked.

In terms of future priorities for a potential second Trump administration, Hagerty underscored the importance of economic strength as foundational for effective foreign policy. He concluded by asserting that Trump has demonstrated capability in dealing with global leaders effectively.
