Politics have become a dangerous game lately. Trump knows that more than anyone.
And President Trump gave an ominous answer during an interview that has everyone worried.
President Trump isn’t mincing words about the dangers lurking in today’s political arena, especially as he gears up for the 2026 midterms. In a recent sit-down with One America News Network, the commander-in-chief laid out his “big plans” with a stark twist: survival amid the escalating threats from left-wing radicals.
When pressed on whether he’d hit the campaign trail to boost GOP candidates, Trump delivered a line that’s got everyone talking. “I have big plans, I want to survive,” Trump said with a laugh.
Trump didn’t stop there, blasting the opposition for fanning the flames of chaos. “So you look at what’s going on, it’s crazy. You know, the rhetoric that these crazy Democrats are using is very dangerous. They’ve made politics very dangerous,” he declared. It’s clear he’s pointing the finger at the inflammatory language coming from the left that’s putting lives at risk.
Shifting to his vision for the midterms, Trump teased big wins ahead. “And we’ll be, we’ll be, you’re going to be very happy with the job we’re going to do.” With his track record of delivering for America, supporters are already fired up about what’s in store.
This talk of survival hits home after the two brazen attempts on Trump’s life during his triumphant 2024 run. First came the horror in Butler, Pennsylvania, where a bullet grazed his ear, courtesy of 22-year-old gunman Thomas Matthew Crooks firing from a rooftop. That shot was mere inches from ending it all, leaving Trump with a bandage as a badge of resilience.
The Butler incident shook Trump to his core, as he’s openly shared. He’s repeatedly honored Corey Compertore, the heroic firefighter and dad who sacrificed himself to protect his daughter from the hail of bullets in the crowd. True patriots like Compertore embody the spirit Trump’s fighting to preserve.
Authorities still haven’t pinned down Crooks’ exact motives, and the shooter was taken out on site. But details paint a troubling picture: Crooks donated to the Democrat outfit ActBlue back in 2021 during Biden’s inauguration, even though he was registered as a Republican and only voted once in 2022.
Then, just two months later, the nightmare repeated at Trump’s Palm Beach golf course. Fifty-nine-year-old Ryan Wesley Routh got nabbed after aiming a rifle while the president was playing golf nearby. No party affiliation for Routh at the time, but his past tells a story of betrayal.
Routh admitted voting for Trump in 2016 before souring on him. In a rambling letter to Politico, he whined about the system: “I am unclear how we allowed ourselves to fall into just a two-party system,” Routh wrote.
“But it infuriates me. My entire life has been plagued by D’s and R’s. It seems not long ago there was a push for the libertarian party and now a green party and maybe Truth party. But for some reason our leaders have not allowed any other party [to] be recognized in any race.
Trump’s survival quip gains even more weight following the shocking assassination of Turning Point USA leader Charlie Kirk just last month. The fiery conservative debater and staunch Trump ally took a bullet to the neck during a campus showdown with students in Utah, sending shockwaves through the MAGA movement and amplifying fears over inadequate protection.
Kirk’s k*ller reportedly admitted to his transgender partner that the motive was targeting “hate” speech. This tragedy exposes the vicious underbelly of leftist intolerance, where debating ideas can get you k*lled if you dare challenge the woke agenda.
Beyond the threats, Trump is laser-focused on flipping the script in the midterms by backing his loyal allies in pivotal races nationwide. He’s not sitting idle; the man started raking in funds the very day after crushing Kamala Harris in 2024, amassing over $1 billion through various efforts.
In a candid chat with governors back in February, Trump laid it out plain: “So we’ve got that money, and I got to spend it somewhere … if I can’t spend it on me, I guess that means I’m going to be spending it on some of my friends, right?”
Still, Trump isn’t blind to history’s patterns. During his OAN appearance, he voiced a nagging concern: “the one thing that I worry about is that, if you look over many, many years, I don’t have the numbers, but the person that wins the presidency always seems to lose the midterms.”
With America First warriors rallying behind him, Trump’s push for survival and victory in 2026 could redefine the political battlefield, shutting down the radical left’s reign of terror once and for all.
