Former President Donald Trump slammed John Kerry, the current presidential climate envoy and former Secretary of State, in front of a large Save America rally crowd in Georgia for being more concerned about climate change amid Russia’s threats of nuclear warfare.
Trump returned to the battleground Peach State Saturday night, speaking just northeast of Atlanta at the NHRA International Dragway in Commerce, Georgia. The 45th president warned that the country is living in dangerous times, given the war in Ukraine and the threats being made by Russia, China, and North Korea.
“This is the single most dangerous time for our country in history,” he said. “Far more dangerous than World War I or World War II, and that’s because of the power of nuclear weapons. And yet, you have people like John Kerry worrying about the climate. The climate! Oh, I heard that the other day. Here we are, guys, threatening us — he’s worried about the ocean will rise, will rise, one-hundredth of 1% over the next 300 f***ing years.”
The former commander in chief went on to send a warning to America’s greatest geopolitical foes, noting that the United States has the greatest nuclear power — something he credited to himself, arguing he rebuilt the nation’s military defenses during his time in the Oval Office.
“We have the greatest nuclear power right now in the world, far greater than any other country,” Trump said. “That’s because we had weapons that were 47 years old. They were so old that nobody even knew if they worked. And now, we have a very powerful nuclear power again, and that’s because we rebuilt our entire military and all because you had a president who always put America first.”
Trump also called for greater protection of parents’ rights to control what their children are taught in school and said that “we must protect women’s sports” amid a national debate about whether transgender people should be able to participate.
He then blasted Supreme Court nominee Ketanji Brown Jackson for not being able to define what a woman is.
“The Left has become so extreme that we now have a justice being nominated to the Supreme Court who testified under oath that she could not say what a woman is,” Trump said. “If she can’t even say what a woman is, how on Earth could she be trusted to say what the Constitution is?”
“And a party that’s unwilling to admit that men and women are biologically different in defiance of all scientific and human history,” Trump said, “is a party that should not be anywhere near the levers of power in the United States of America.”

Many speakers ahead of Trump also hit on top Republican concerns, including voter fraud, border security, and the culture war within America. GOP Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene spoke and took aim at Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg and his husband Chasten Saturday, saying the couple should “stay out of our girls’ bathrooms.”
Herschel Walker, a GOP Senate candidate in the Peach State and former pro-football star running back, echoed Greene’s concerns regarding gender and sports and condemned critical race theory.
“Critical race theory, can you tell me what that means?” Walker said. “We’re Americans. We’re not black. We’re not white. We’re America.”
