‘So Evil’: Trump Doubles Down On ‘Enemy From Within’ Comments, Denies He Was ‘Threatening Anybody’

Former President Donald Trump doubled down on calling his political opponents “the enemy from within” during a Wednesday town hall, but denied he was “threatening” anyone.

In an interview with Fox News host Maria Bartiromo on “Sunday Morning Futures,” Trump suggested military intervention may be “necessary” to address “the enemy from within,” specifically naming Democratic California Rep. Adam Schiff. During Wednesday’s Georgia town hall on “The Faulkner Focus” with Fox News host Harris Faulkner, Trump repeated similar comments, again singling out Schiff and adding Democratic California Rep. Nancy Pelosi to his list.

“Mr. President, Kamala Harris has said you sounded unhinged and unchecked power is in our future. What do you say about that?” Faulkner asked.

“I thought it was a nice presentation. I wasn’t unhinged. You know what they are? They’re a party of sound bites … They’re very different. And it is the enemy from within and they’re very dangerous. They’re Marxists and communists and fascists and they’re sick,” Trump said. “I use a guy like Adam Schiff ’cause they made up the Russia, Russia Russia hoax. It took two years to solve the problem. Absolutely nothing was done wrong, etc. They’re dangerous for our country. We have China, we have Russia, we have all these countries. If you have a smart president, they can all be handled. The more difficult are the Pelosis, these people that are so sick and they’re so evil.”
