Donald Trump is facing fierce criticism after referring to Democrats as “gnats” during a speech to U.S. Navy sailors on Sunday.
Speaking to thousands in uniform, the former president said, “We have to take care of this little gnat that’s on our shoulder called the Democrats,” while making a flicking gesture.
