Billionaire Bill Ackman, a loyal Donald Trump supporter, on Wednesday slammed President Joe Biden for his contribution to Russia's invasion of the country of Georgia.

During an interview with CNBC' Squawk Box, the Chief Executive officer of Pershing Square Capital Management declared that the world became "a much, much more dangerous place" under President Joe Biden's administration.

"And the reason for that, in my view, has been the perception — and really the reality — of weakness in the executive branch," Ackman claimed.

Squawk Box co-host Joe Kernen replied, "Starting with Afghanistan, I would think."

"Probably begins even before that," the MAGA ally said. "You can look at the acquisition of Georgia, the invasion of Georgia."

Ackman went on to say that the invasion happened during the [ex-President Barack] Obama era.

"But Biden really played a role," the billionaire claimed.
