Democrats Attacks Against Trump Include Violent Rhetoric
Rep. McIver: "Shut down the city! We are at war!"
Will this presidential election be the most important in American history?
Democrats are increasingly becoming more aggressive in their attacks against President Trump and their hostile tone includes Elon Musk, head of the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE).
The attacks are being led by the top Democrats in Congress.
Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-NY) participated in a “Nobody Elected Elon” rally outside the Treasury Building in Washington, D.C.
Schumer criticized Musk over his effort to cut government waste as the leader of DOGE.
Some on X mocked Schumer for his chant while holding hands with Democrat California Representative Maxine Waters.
ABC News reported on the rally which included hostile quotes from Democrat lawmakers.
Rep. Maxine Waters said, “We have got to tell Elon Musk, ‘Nobody elected your ass. Nobody told you you could get all of our private information. Nobody told you you could be in charge of the payments of this country.’”
Representative Ayanna Pressley went as far as calling Musk a “Nazi nepo baby.”
Democrat Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries urged resistance against the Trump agenda including, “…fight in the streets.”
Representative LaMonica McIver (D-NJ) seemed to take Jeffries encouragement for street fighting saying, “Shut down the city! We are at war!”

On MSNBC, Jeffries promised to mobilize Democrat supporters including lawyers to file lawsuits to stop Trump’s agenda.
Democrat governors are also part of the anti-Trump resistance.
The New York Times reported on a conference call with the governors and Schumer. According to the story, the Democrat governors pressured Schumer to do more to stop Trump including his nominations.
The story also included a social media strategy to counter Trump by Senator Corey Booker (D-NJ).
Last week, Mr. Booker delivered a PowerPoint presentation to fellow Democrats about how to deliver their message online. In the slides, which were obtained by The New York Times, Mr. Booker offered his colleagues guidance on how often to post on each platform. Instagram: once or twice a day. Facebook: once a day. LinkedIn: three to five times a week. X: two to five times a day. TikTok: one to four times a day.
The tone and style by Democrats reflects their desperation and it’s only going to escalate. Calling Musk a Nazi and concluding Democrats are engaged in a war is reckless and dangerous.
Democrats are ignoring the will of millions of Americans who voted for Trump and his America First agenda.
It’s a reminder that Democrats care more about power and not the people.
