The GOP--with the exception of Massie, Amash, Paul, and Lee--is now the party of socialism. Trump is the most socialist President since FDR, and MAGA is the biggest socialist movement since the Progressive Era of the 1890s-1920s. Trump is pretty much the modern day Robert M. La Follette.
Remember also that the Progressive Movement consisted of members from both Ds and Rs; that's why Bernie's and Trump's ideologies are so similar.
Its funny that you are trying to convince the people here that Trump is a socialist .. we get it, you don't like Trump...
He is a socialist--he redistributes wealth. He takes it from the middle class and gives it to the one-percent, his cronies, corporations, himself and his family. Combined with being a populist, demagogue and autocrat--danger ahead.
Socialist has been thrown around so much it essentially has no meaning anymore.
Like when people use to say something is gay. Like “dude, that movie is gay”
Or “dude why do we have so much homework? Thats so gay man!”
Use to mean happy, then it meant homosexual, then it meant to describe anything one doesn’t like. It went back to the previous meaning though. It will never mean “happy” again..

You have it completely backwards.
He takes wealth and property from the producers and gives it to the non-producers. And the wall is a communist government jobs program.

OP is "seminar caller." Not worth speaking to. He has no idea what a socialist is, only that more people don't like them than do, so he might as well label Trump as one.
As for Pelosi, she has seen something that has spooked her. Ordinarily, the Dems are perfectly happy to give any leftist creep--socialist, communist, anarchist, whatever--a place to go. She has seen some polling data that suggests that a good majority of American people are fearful of the rise of socialism, or something, so now she is doing damage control.

Good luck San Fran Nan.
Trump called for another round of QE. QE largely benefits one class by costing another class.

"Socialism, like the ancient ideas from which it springs, confuses the distinction between government and society. As a result of this, every time we object to a thing being done by government, the socialists conclude that we object to its being done at all." --Frédéric Bastiat
Seems like I understand socialism far better than you do.

Anarchists aren't leftists.
But the GOP is every bit as left-socialist as the Democrats.
