“This is the most serious threat to our country since its existence.”
President Trump warned that the rise of socialist-backed candidates within the Democratic Party poses a major threat to America's founding principles.
Pointing to New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani's push for a rent freeze, Trump argued policies like it will turn cities into "ghettos and slums" and drive people out.
The remarks come after several candidates endorsed by Mamdani won Democratic primaries, fueling debate over the growing influence of the party's progressive wing ahead of America's 250th anniversary.
