Donald Trump Trashed Over ‘Disgusting’ Comment About Half Of The Country On July 4th
Donald Trump faces backlash after declaring he “hates” political opponents during a July 4th event in Iowa. At his “Salute to America” speech, the former president made controversial remarks about Democrats who opposed his legislation.
“They wouldn’t vote only because they hate Trump, but I hate them too,” Trump told the crowd. “I really do. I hate them. I cannot stand them.” He went further, claiming: “I really believe they hate our country.”
The comments sparked immediate outrage online, with critics calling Trump “small” and “hateful.” Many found his remarks particularly inappropriate for Independence Day celebrations.
“So he just told half the country he hates them. Cool,” one Twitter user wrote. Another responded: “Imagine if Biden said he hated half the country – Fox News would never stop talking about it.”
A third critic delivered a scathing assessment: “We’ve taken America’s founding ideals and flushed them down this foul man’s golden toilet.” The comment referenced Trump’s well-known luxury bathroom fixtures.
The backlash highlights growing political divisions, as Trump’s rhetoric continues to polarize the nation. His unfiltered remarks contrast with traditional presidential holiday messages of unity.
Observers note such comments may energize Trump’s base while further alienating opponents. The incident comes as the former president positions himself for another potential White House run.
