Trump Says Communism Is America's Biggest Threat—Bigger Than World Wars and 9/11

At Mount Rushmore on July 3, Trump declared communism more dangerous to the U.S. than World War I, World War II, and 9/11 combined. He spoke to a mostly white crowd with military jets flying overhead, linking warnings about communism to immigration—suggesting newcomers bring ideas that clash with American life. The speech comes four months before midterm elections.
