Former President Trump reposted a message on Truth Social on Sunday that claimed the U.S. is heading toward civil war because of an “enemy from within.”

A Truth Social user who goes by “MAGA King Thanos” wrote “Civil war” and cited a Truth post from Fox Nation host Lara Logan that was a screengrab of a tweet from El Salvadorian President Nayib Bukele. Trump “ReTruthed” the post.

Bukele had written on Twitter: “The most powerful country in the world is falling so fast, that it makes you rethink the real reasons. Something so big and powerful can’t be destroyed so quickly, unless the enemy comes from within.”

Bukele referred to a Bloomberg op-ed called “Inflation Stings Most If You Earn Less Than $300K. Here’s How to Deal.”

Prices are now running 8.3 percent higher than one year ago, and gas prices have increased for two straight weeks. On Monday, they reached a record high of $4.60 a gallon.

Bukele’s rigid immigration view has aligned him with Trump and led to tensions within the Biden Administration.

In April, the State Department voiced concerns about threats to press freedom, and spokesman Ned Price added on Twitter: “The U.S. government continues to support El Salvador in its efforts to reduce the proliferation of gangs. We urge El Salvador to protect its citizens while also upholding civil liberties, including freedom of the press.”

Bukele fired back:” ‘The U.S. government continues to support El Salvador to reduce the proliferation of gangs.’ Really? Yes, we got support from the U.S. government to fight crime, but this was UNDER THE TRUMP ADMINISTRATION. You are only supporting the gangs and their ‘civil liberties’ now.”

Trump's post brought criticism from his opposers.

“Any of my fellow Republicans wanna speak out now? Or are we just wanting to get through ‘just one more election first…?’” outgoing Illinois Republican Rep. Adam Kinzinger wrote on Twitter.

“Donald Trump is calling for a Civil War. Of course, like Vietnam and the walk to the Insurrection, he won’t be man enough to fight it,” Rep. Eric Swalwell, D-Calif., griped.

“Nothing to see here. Just a former President of the United States sharing a social media post advocating or predicting civil war in the United States. No biggie,” anti-Trump conservative George Conway wrote on Twitter.

On Friday, Trump took to the social media company he founded, Truth Social, to claim Elon Musk had told a lie and that his bid to buy Twitter was “probably illegal.”
