I see this move from this president to try to divide the dems and instill into his base that dems are "socialists". The fact that only one candidate for the dems identifies as a socialist is Bernie Sanders does not matter, he will continue this rhetoric because it gets his base fired up & he thinks it will bring more votes next year.
Congratulations Mr. President you have locked in more votes for the other side due to your comments. You can believe that many who wouldn't bother to vote, will now.

Revisionist history, The right has been calling the left socialist for years before Trump ever ran. He is bad enough, no need to make things up or give him credit that he doesn't deserve . LOL
Of course it's racist. Are you really kidding me with your above post? A sitting US president telling Congresswomen to go back to their infested places from which they came? There are people who are actually born in the US and Trump would actually say that, implying they "weren't really born in the US."
All true but realize that racism and bigotry have always been central to American culture, it was true when we destroyed the Native American tribes, it was true when we developed an economy based on slave labor, and it remains true today - it is embodied in the Presidency of Donald Trump. There is a certain segment of our society that celebrates racism and white entitlement, some do it openly, some do it quietly. But it has not gone away simply because we passed a few laws.
Yea, that’s odd - I don’t know why my quote picked that up. Sorry for the confusion; you can stick to “ATX Wahine” however, we are not on an intimate “dear” basis.
Not a problem. The quotes do weird things on this site sometimes. And I apologize for the "dear." It's a bad habit I picked up from one of this site's posters. It was uncalled for and you are right to call me on it.

I am not making anything up and I agree with you, however it can't be denied that his attacking 4 woman of color has made many minority people mad enough to vote when maybe they wouldn't have. No credit to him at all. He stepped on his tongue once again.
The “communist” “socialist” “x candidate wants to turn our country into Venezuela” are the arguments being used around the world against leftwing governments.
This is not something trump came up with. He (and Pence and the rest) are being advised to use those particular words, phrases when speaking to the public.
Oh I see the path he is trying to follow very clearly.
Trump must be really feeling the heat from his latest comments the last couple days, he seems pretty triggered.
Donald Trump is the ultimate snowflake.
He's keeping the focus off Lolita-gate.
