“Why does Trump keep talking about ‘communism’?” CNN asks in a funny headline that answers its own question. Because, you hacks, today’s Democratic Party is crawling with communists.
“Communism is a mortal threat to American liberty,” Trump said during his July 3 speech at Mount Rushmore. “It is the greatest threat to our country, including World War I, World War II, Pearl Harbor or even 9/11.” At a Fourth of July celebration on the National Mall, the President pledged that “America will never be a communist country.” CNN is perplexed! What is this mysterious “communism” of which the President speaks?
Gee, what could it be? Graham Platner said he was a communist, and was endorsed by Bernie Sanders (who went to Stalin’s Soviet Union on his honeymoon), Sen. Chuck Schumer, Sen. Elizabeth Warren, Sen. Ed Markey, Sen. Sheldon Whitehouse, Rep. Ro Khanna, and Sen Ruben Gallego. Is the argument that Platner’s Nazi tattoo appealed to them? His non-existent leadership experience? Was it his record of domestic abuse?
The Mayor of New York both spouts Marxist slogans routinely and is being hailed as a Democratic Party “rising star.” Hilariously, both Darializa Avila Chevalier in New York and Melat Kiros in Denver, who won primaries over establishment Democrats, are defended against allegations that they are communists because “they identify as democratic socialists.”
Riiiight. And Lia Thomas identifies as a female. “You solve homelessness by giving people housing, you solve hunger by giving people food,” Kiros has said. You know. “To each according to his needs.” Chevalier, in addition to wanting to abolish police, prisons and borders, has said that she wants to “seize the means of production.”
“Communism? What communism?”

“[T]he Cold War generation associated communism with the regimes of Joseph Stalin, Mao Zedong and Fidel Castro, and with memories of duck-and-cover drills under the threat of nuclear annihilation by the Soviet Union.”
Wait! People ASSOCIATED communism with Stalin, Mao and Fidel!? Those whacky Cold War generation members. What will they think of next?
I wonder if they associated Nazism with the regime of Adolf Hitler.
I wonder if they associated fascism with the regime of Benito Mussolini.
Is it really a duck?
I repeat; “Yes the Democratic Party has become socialists, or is it communists, it’s hard to tell at this point.”
There was a time when CNN Headline News was legitimate. What the hell happened? (Rhetorical)
I worry that I have become a cliche, an old person who believes we’re going to hell in a hand basket. Numbers don’t lie – my fears of political illiteracy in this country, particularly among our youth, are justified.
Maybe McCarthy wasn’t so crazy after all.
Reality check for the gullible….you can easily vote yourself INTO a socialist or communist form of government, but you can never vote yourself OUT of it once it takes hold. Maybe a Go Fund Me page to offer one
-way fares to those who think such systems are great would be in order…..try it before buying it. Return fares are at your own expense.
