Former President Donald Trump recently defended his remarks suggesting the use of the military to handle what he referred to as 'the enemy from within' on Election Day. This comes after Vice President Kamala Harris criticized Trump, calling him 'increasingly unstable and unhinged.'

During a town hall event in Georgia focused on women's issues, Trump responded to Harris' comments by stating, 'I thought it was a nice presentation. I wasn't unhinged.' He dismissed Harris' remarks as 'sound bites' and emphasized the perceived threat posed by the 'enemy from within.'

Trump reiterated his concerns about internal threats, stating, 'We have some very bad people. We have some sick people. Radical left lunatics.' He expressed confidence in handling any potential chaos from his supporters or foreign actors but emphasized the need to address threats from within.
