Ron Johnson calls Joe Biden 'socialist and Marxist', slammed as 'Putin puppet'
Senator Ron Johnson faced severe trolling on the Internet for calling President Joe Biden a 'liberal progressive socialist Marxist.' Speaking about Biden's foreign policies, the senator said that he is "weak" and his policies are like "self-inflicted wounds". People flooded Twitter with hilarious remarks on Johnson's understanding of Biden's policies.
Senator Johnson was speaking to FOX News' Sean Hannity about why Biden was "granting waivers to countries that are not particularly friendly towards US" when he made the remark. He said, "He (Biden) is weak, " and added, "Do not ask me to get into the mind of a liberal, progressive socialist, Marxist like President Biden." Johnson is accused of allegedly laundering Russian propaganda through his committee before Democrats took control of the Senate. Johnson has often been dubbed as a "Russian asset" by several of his congressional colleagues.

Johnson had made this remark when he was asked by Hannity on his June 10 show about Biden administration's recent moves to block the Keystone pipeline, waive sanctions on the company behind Russia's Nord Stream 2 gas pipeline and drop a Trump administration order targeting TikTok.
In a statement later released by his office, Johnson said: “President Biden is exacerbating the problems facing this nation. Border crisis, national debt, international weakness. Who knows what label to apply to these policy catastrophes, but we certainly know he’s no moderate." He later tweeted the same.
