Watch The Gateway Pundit’s Live Coverage of the Trump Rally at Madison Square Garden
In a recent interview, Senator JD Vance (R-OH) didn’t hold back when NBC’s Kristen Welker tried to grill him about Donald Trump’s recent comments about the “enemy from within.”
Trump caused a media firestorm after an interview with Joe Rogan by asserting that America faces a greater threat from within than its longtime adversary like North Korea.
Trump noted, “We don’t have a problem with (Kim Jong Un),” and added, “I’m talking to people, we have a bigger problem, in my opinion, with the enemy from within.”
JD Vance stepped up to debunk the “enemy from within” narrative in one minute, targeting Speaker Nancy Pelosi and other far-left Democrats.
When Welker pressed him, expressing concern about foreign threats from China and Russia, Vance remained impassive.
Below is the transcript:
Kristin Welker: So, this week we learned that China was behind a vast hacking campaign that targeted phone calls from the presidential campaign, which shows the threat that China poses to this country. However, Donald Trump recently called his domestic political enemies “the enemy from within” and said they are more dangerous than Russia and China. Do you really believe that people like Adam Schiff and Nancy Pelosi are more dangerous than Russia and China?
JD Vance: Well, I think what Donald Trump is saying is that those people are a greater threat to the peace and security of the United States because America is strong enough to face foreign enemies.
Kristin Welker: Do you agree with him? They are a bigger threat to the United States than Russia and China?
JD Vance: What he is saying – and I agree with this – is that the biggest threat to our country is not foreign enemies, because we can handle these people. We can solve foreign conflicts. We can handle it… Look, in Nancy Pelosi’s long life in public leadership, the United States has gone from the world’s leading industrial power to second, next to China. That basically rests on the shoulders of Nancy Pelosi.
If we want to have a more prosperous country, we must realize that our own leadership is the reason why we lost our industrial base to China. Our own leadership has failed to lead this country to peace and prosperity.
Sure, Kamala Harris… Look, when I consider the biggest threat to America, Kristin, I think the fact that people can’t buy groceries, the fact that we’re not meeting our recruiting goals in the military, the fact that America has a wide open southern border—it’s a greater threat than the foreign threat. Yes, because of corrupt leadership.

However, in a world where the fake news media picks and chooses outrage, there is a very clear flaw: the Biden administration itself has repeatedly labeled “white supremacy” as the greatest threat to the country – a claim that cannot be questioned or contested. the media is now scrutinizing Trump’s words.
“The US intelligence community has determined that domestic terrorism based on white supremacy is the greatest terrorist threat facing our homeland,” Biden said last year without providing any data or evidence.
Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas reviewed this and claimed that domestic terrorists are the greatest threat to our country. This is after he allowed millions of illegal aliens into the country unchecked and undetected for over a year.
However, when Biden views domestic threats as the country’s greatest danger, the media conveniently turns a blind eye. It’s remarkable, if unpredictable, how the mainstream media remains silent while Biden and his administration raise rhetoric about “domestic terrorism” as the nation’s biggest problem — never mind the economic hardships facing Americans at home or the security threats at the border.
