Donald Trump says that, despite the rhetoric of the Harris campaign, that his is “not a threat to democracy at all.”

Speaking to TV show host Dr Phil, the former president suggested that such rhetoric was also responsible for the attempt on his life at a campaign rally in Pennsylvania.

“They're saying, I'm a threat to democracy. No, they're a threat. They've weaponized government. They're a threat. But that turned to be like one of their lines. ‘You know that Trump is a threat?’

“I'm not a threat to democracy at all. They are a threat to democracy. But they would say that that was standard line. Just keep saying it. And you know that can get assassins, or potential assassins going. That's a terrible thing.”

“It was a standard line for them. Donald Trump, a threat to democracy. I’m just the opposite. I’m the one that fixed our military. I’m the one I did so much. I also took a bullet. But maybe that bullet is because of their rhetoric, you know, it’s really nasty rhetoric in the Democrat convention.

“My name was mentioned, hundreds of times.”
