Trump's bashing Dems as 'Godless communists.' Does America care? [View all]

(USA Today) WASHINGTON – President Donald Trump had a warning. The nation is imperiled, he told a group of religious conservatives, by a force bent on destroying "the traditional American way of life."

"These are hardcore, godless communists," Trump said at the Faith & Freedom Coalition conference last month, adding: "This is the most serious threat to our country since its existence."

It was a speech that echoed the anti-communist zeal from the mid-20th century, delivered by a president who has struggled with a midterm message. Increasingly, he seems to be finding it, telling another crowd in North Dakota July 1 that communism in America is a bigger crisis than World War I, World War II or the Sept. 11, 2001, terrorist attacks.
