It truly is remarkable. Trump is literally enacting Stalinism to an extent to which Obama never envisioned.

You'd think the lefties would be tripping all over themselves to claim him as one of their own.

Why would I read those fake news sites?
I already know why anyone with a brain would detest Trump.

63 million people voted for trump. That's a lot of deplorables.

Well, let's just say that it's not exclusively because his followers seem to think that an OP with two links and no original content should be considered a contribution.

Yes, his socialism has been extensive.

But then again, the Military, Police, Fire Departments, etc are inherently socialist institutions.

The military-industrial complex is a deep socialist ideal. Then again, the military represents 2% of the population (including military retirees but excluding their civilian family members).

Then again, bailouts to the rich, bailouts to rich banks, bailouts to rich auto-industries, bailouts to rich large pork and soy farms, are all a certain type of socialism as well.

Tariffs are also "anti-free trade" and are socialism.

Isn't that a whopping 19% of the citizenry?

Hillary received 65.8 million citizen votes (to vote in a Fed Election, citizenship is required thanks to punishments outlined in Republican's and BILL CLINTON's 1996 Illegal Immig & Immig Responsibility Act).

The non-Democratic Statist Electoral College is how Federal Elections are won, though.

I think more Americans supported George W. Bush after the failed and lied-into Iraq War than 19%.

Nothing brings lefties and righties together like hating libertarians and anarchists.

It just goes to show we're still better than all of you.
