President Donald Trump used a Fourth of July eve speech at Mount Rushmore to warn that the threat of communism is growing inside America, directly targeting the far-left wing of the Democratic Party ahead of the midterm elections.
President Donald Trump delivered a sharp anti-communist message at Mount Rushmore on July 3, warning that radical left-wing forces inside the Democratic Party are pushing ideas that threaten America’s way of life.
Speaking during an event marking America’s 250th anniversary, Trump said the United States defeated communism abroad during the Cold War, but now faces a renewed threat at home.
“America will never become a communist country,” Trump said.
Trump accused democratic socialist elements in the Democratic Party of embracing an ideology that stands against American freedom, success, and national identity.
The President also pointed to the coming midterm elections, warning supporters that Republicans can only lose if they allow themselves to be defeated through weakness or poor judgment.
He also called for stronger voter ID laws and defended keeping the Senate filibuster, as far-left Democratic candidates continue gaining ground in several primary races.
The speech marked Trump’s first visit to Mount Rushmore in six years. He previously held a major Independence Day event there in 2020 during his first term.
With concerns over inflation and energy costs weighing on voters, Trump is using Independence Day and America’s 250th anniversary to frame his second administration as a fight to protect American freedom, security, and traditional values.
The message was clear: Trump is making the fight against the radical left a central issue heading into the midterms.
