— Donald J. Trump attacked congressional Democrats after 192 House members voted against a resolution denouncing socialism, calling them the “Enemy of the People.”

The White House list Trump promoted said Democrats unanimously opposed the largest tax cut in American history and are trying to repeal it, according to whitehouse.gov. The document accused Democrats of obstructing measures on tax relief, border security and election integrity. “The Extreme Liberal Dumocrats are OUT OF THEIR MINDS,” Trump wrote, framing the vote as proof of a “dangerous agenda.”

Here is the full post on truthsocial: “The Extreme Liberal Dumocrats are OUT OF THEIR MINDS! They continue to put their dangerous agenda ahead of the American People by voting AGAINST denouncing Socialism and the Radical Dumocrat Socialists of America platform. Remember they opposed the Largest Tax Cut in American History, which Republicans were able to get done, anyway. They are truly the Enemy of the People! Trump Ten Times Extreme Liberal Democrats in Congress Put Their Dangerous Agenda Ahead of the American People:” on September 4, 2026 at 6:26 PM ET.

This is Trump’s 14th message released today, and the last post was 0 minutes ago, and it is not part of a thread. On average, Trump produces 18 posts per day since his inauguration on January 20, 2025. The move fits a broader pattern in Trump’s recent messaging, with 68 of his 626 posts over the last 30 days classified as Domestic Policy posts.

The post linked to a White House release titled “Ten Times Extreme Liberal Democrats in Congress Put Their Dangerous Agenda Ahead of the American People,” which Trump promoted by mentioning the source (see whitehouse.gov). The release said that “last night 192 Democrats voted AGAINST denouncing socialism and the Radical Democrat Socialists of America platform,” according to whitehouse.gov.

The White House list catalogued votes it framed as obstruction. It said every Democrat opposed the tax package that included No Tax on Tips, No Tax on Overtime, No Tax on Social Security and an expanded Child Care Tax Credit for 40 million families, according to whitehouse.gov. The document also said 53 Democrats voted against declaring Iran a state sponsor of terrorism. It said nearly 200 Democrats voted against the Stop Insider Trading Act, according to whitehouse.gov.

Additional items on the list touched healthcare and elections. The release said Democrats voted against hospital price transparency requirements and had “UNANIMOUSLY” voted against the SAVE AMERICA Act, which would require citizenship verification and photo identification to vote, according to whitehouse.gov. It further said over 200 Democrats voted against restricting federal Medicaid dollars for transgender treatments for minors, according to whitehouse.gov.

The list also cited immigration measures. Nearly 200 Democrats voted against the Laken Riley Act, legislation named for a Georgia nursing student and signed into law by Trump, according to whitehouse.gov.

Public sentiment toward both parties has drawn scrutiny in recent polling. When asked what they disliked most about Democrats, 10% of Americans said the party was weak and did not stand up to Trump, according to abcnews. Republicans’ main criticisms of Democrats included calling them too liberal or socialist, cited by 11% of respondents, according to abcnews.
