**Rep. Donalds Assures Public: "No Enemies List" Under Trump Administration**

In light of recent discussions surrounding President-elect Trump's comments about his opponents, Rep. Byron Donalds (R-Fla.) has clarified that Trump does not maintain an "enemies list." On "Fox News Sunday," Donalds addressed concerns, emphasizing that the President-elect is dedicated to serving the American public rather than targeting his critics.

"For the American people who have been listening to these lies from the Democratic left, I will tell you, this is not something that Donald Trump has ever spoken to, or he's committed to, whatsoever. There's no enemies list," Rep. Donalds stated. While acknowledging that Trump has his share of opponents and individuals he is not fond of, Donalds argued that Trump's main focus remains the well-being of the American citizens.

Donalds highlighted Trump's primary goals which include securing the southern border, deporting noncitizens, and enhancing the economy and energy. "His focus is the American people, not some enemies list," Donalds said, reiterating the President-elect's commitment to his priorities.

This clarification comes as Trump has made various promises to address his critics and those he sees as "enemies" throughout his campaign. These promises raised concerns, especially in the lead-up to the election and following Trump's re-election. Despite these concerns, Donalds assured that the limitations of the presidential office remain in place, restricting any potential actions Trump might take against his political adversaries.
