President Trump shrugged off the armed suspect arrested near his Southern California fundraiser this week, brushing aside the security scare and suggesting it comes with the territory of being a president who matters.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe only thing I get a little solace from is they say only consequential presidents, and I am definitely consequential,\u201d Trump told Fox News @ Night host Trace Gallagher during an exclusive interview Tuesday.<\/p>\n

Instead of focusing on the arrest of 38-year-old Jeanine John Taele, who authorities say was found Sunday at Trump National Golf Club Los Angeles with weapons and ammunition, Trump pivoted to Iran, the economy and what he called the growing threat of socialism.<\/p>\n

\u201cI have no choice,\u201d Trump said of Iran. \u201cThey can\u2019t have a nuclear weapon.\u201d<\/p>\n

The president also took aim at the rise of socialist candidates, arguing they \u201cwant to ruin the country.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n<\/div>\n

Countries taken over by communists and socialists, he said, always become \u201cfilthy,\u201d \u201cdisgusting\u201d and \u201cdirty.\u201d<\/p>\n

The interview followed Trump\u2019s rare trip to the Los Angeles area for a Republican National Committee fundraising dinner at Trump National Golf Club Los Angeles in Rancho Palos Verdes.<\/p>\n

His visit came amid heightened political tensions, with large crowds of supporters and anti-Trump demonstrators gathering outside the venue. <\/p>\n

California Gov. Gavin Newsom also sharply criticized Trump\u2019s visit through social media and official state channels as the political temperature surrounding the president\u2019s California appearance continued to escalate.<\/p>\n
