Former President Donald Trump took aim at Critical Race Theory during his speech at the “Protect Our Elections Rally” hosted by Turning Point Action on Saturday night.
Trump asserted that the Marxist teachings have “no place in our country” and slammed it as “flagrant racism.”
“We shouldn’t be apologizing to the world,” he said. “We’re apologizing for America, just like Obama apologized. Remember, he apologized. They should be apologizing to America for what they’ve done to it. That’s who I think should be apologizing to.”
“The Biden administration’s ‘America last’ philosophy … is also making a mockery of our country right here at home,” he continued. “Earlier this year, Biden signed an executive order pushing toxic, critical race theory into our children’s schools and into our military. How about our military? This poisonous left-wing doctrine is flagrant racism, plain and simple, and it has no place in our schools, no place in our military and no place in our country.”
Biden signed an executive order rescinding Trump’s order to restrict the federal government and its contractors from teaching critical race theory.
“If you remember, I ended it very rapidly with a very powerful executive order, but that executive order was immediately repealed and terminated by the radical left,” Trump said. “A Republican Congress will defund it and ban it once and for all. They’re going to ban it. They will get it done.”

Trump also set his sights on Joint Chiefs of Staff, Gen. Mark Milley, who defended the military’s teaching of critical race theory.
“Can you believe it?” Trump asked the crowd. “He said he wanted to quote, ‘understand White rage.’ He wants to understand White rage. What the hell is he talking about that for? Our generals should not be focused on learning left-wing ideology. They should be focused on defeating America’s enemies and winning our future wars. Hopefully, we don’t have them, but if we do, we have to win them.”
“They’re still coming after me because I will never stop fighting and winning for you,” he continued. “Going through it for five years, five years. From the very beginning of our movement, we have been fighting against some of the most corrupt, powerful and entrenched forces imaginable. The professional political class, the deep state, the fake news media, the Russia hoaxers, the globalists, the socialists, the communists, the lobbyists, the corporate special interests who are absolutely terrible, and now the critical race theorists – all of them oppose our movement for a simple reason: We believe in putting America first.”
“It’s very simple,” he added. “We believe in strong families, strong borders and strong sovereign nations. We believe in fair trade for the American worker.”
