Trump’s Town Hall

While Joe Biden is refusing Super Bowl interviews and struggling through two-minute online videos, Donald Trump is holding big rallies and town hall events all across America. Last night, he participated in a town hall event in South Carolina with Laura Ingraham. Here are some highlights.

Trump challenged Joe Biden to a debate, saying, “I’ll do it right now,” adding, “I think you have an obligation in this case . . . As many as necessary. I could do it starting now.”

An audience member asked Trump how he would reassure undecided voters that a second term wouldn’t be about revenge and “settling old scores.” Trump replied, “I don’t care about the revenge thing. . . My revenge will be success.”

Asked about possible running mates, Laura Ingraham identified a number of possible contenders, including Gov. Ron DeSantis, Sen. Tim Scott, and Vivek Ramaswamy. Trump said they were all on his list.  

Regarding his multiple legal challenges, Trump said, “It is a form of Navalny (the Russian dissident who was just found dead). It is a form of communism or fascism. . . These are vicious people.”

Trump also pointed to another situation in New York City. Not long ago, Mayor Eric Adams warned that Biden’s open borders would “destroy” his city. But then the Biden administration went after him. Trump said:

“I’m not even blaming the mayor. I think the mayor has sort of been told to take the backseat . . . because they came after him violently. They came after him like they were going to indict him when he started speaking up, and now he’s become quiet. These are fascists we’re dealing with.”

You don’t have to agree with Donald Trump to realize that we are increasingly in uncharted territory and at risk of losing our liberty.

As I noted above, the neo-Marxist left is using the power of government as an iron fist to “fundamentally transform” America into radical secular socialist country with totalitarian tendencies to stamp out all dissent.

Everyone of us must redouble our efforts in this critical decision year to defend our cherished values.
