US President Donald Trump has declared communism the main threat to his country in a post on the Truth Social network.
According to the American leader, communism is the “greatest threat” to the United States since the two world wars, the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor and the September 11, 2001 terrorist attack in New York.
Last November, amid the victory of democratic socialist Zohran Mamdani in the New York mayoral election, Trump vowed not to allow “communism to be built” in the US. “As long as I am president, the United States will not become a communist country in any shape or form. We will stop it,” he said.
Trump also claimed that New Yorkers would leave the city under a “communist” mayor and threatened to deport Mamdani.
