Donald Trump lashed out at Democrats as “out of control” after he was the focus of a number of attacks at the Democratic National Convention where Barack Obama and Michelle Obama spoke on Tuesday.
Trump joined conservative radio host Hugh Hewitt for The Hugh Hewitt Show on Wednesday and blasted the “Democrats’ little party” after Hewitt asked about “rhetoric” being used against him and the recent assassination attempt of the former president.
“Do you think that the lawfare and the rhetoric directed against you contributed to the climate in which you had an unhinged person like the killer in Pennsylvania, he did kill Corey Comperatore and wounded two other people. Do you think the rhetoric directed at you and the lawfare contributes to the climate that created that sort of an attack?” Hewitt asked.
“Well, it could. You know, I was mentioned at the Democrats’ little party that they have going on in Chicago, and it’s pretty sad,” Trump said following the Obamas both blasting him during their fiery talks .
The former president called Democrats “pretty sad” for focusing so much attention on him. Trump argued crime should have gotten more attention, noting five shooting deaths in the city of Chicago — where the DNC is taking place — in the weekend leading up to the convention.
“I was mentioned, I think, almost 200 times. And they mentioned the economy about five times. They mentioned the border maybe none. They mentioned crime almost none. So I mean, they’re out of control. These people are out of control. And they’re ruining our nation. Our nation is going to hell,” Trump said.
The former president also doubled down on accusing Democrats of a “coup” over President Joe Biden dropping his reelection campaign and endorsing Vice President Kamala Harris .
“They’ve taken the presidency away from this guy. They’ve actually taken the presidency away. This was a coup. This was the first coup of an American president, or probably of any high official. But this was incredible. I watched them, and I watched his angry speech,” he said.
