Enlisted in a national crisis due to the partial paralysis of government services, Donald Trump sharply criticized the Democratic Party this Sunday, March 22.
A new very direct attack from the President of the United States. After targeting the media in recent days, Donald Trump is now taking on the Democratic Party, his main political opposition. This Sunday, March 22, he used particularly strong words, calling them the “greatest enemy” of America, while praising ongoing operations in the Middle East.
“Now that Iran is dead, the greatest enemy of the United States is the Democratic Party, this extreme left party and totally incompetent! Thank you for paying attention to this issue,” he hammered in a message on Truth Social.

This acerbic message follows numerous posts where the president describes democrats as an “extreme left party” with “cruel and indifferent” actions.
“What they have inflicted on the wonderful people of our country is a real shame,” he published on the evening of Saturday, March 21.
Donald Trump’s anger is explained by the partial “shutdown” of government services since mid-February, linked to the lack of adoption of the 2026 budget. He accuses the Democratic Party of causing this blockade.
A notable consequence: airport agents, considered essential personnel, have been working without pay for several weeks, with some resigning or choosing to work elsewhere in the meantime. In airports, the security checkpoint queues have lengthened, and it is not uncommon to wait several hours before reaching the boarding area.
In the face of this crisis, Donald Trump announced the dispatch on Monday, March 23, of ICE agents, also impacted by the budget non-vote, to streamline security checkpoints.
“Get ready. No more waiting, no more games!” he added on his social network.
However, as long as lawmakers do not agree on the budget for federal DHS employees, the crisis may worsen. Among the other sectors affected by the “shutdown,” the official account of the United States Department of State in French announced at the end of January that its updates would be limited until full resumption of its activities.
