Thank God enough people have been exposed to the evil of progressivism over the last two presidencies to know it's pure evil, and thank God President Trump is likely to win another term.
Communism. LOL.

Which candidate's policy speaks to communism do you think?

??? What does that even mean? -- "public safety net?"

-- Not sure what you mean by "my far right views on health care, college, retirement, social security, etc." -- The only thing I mentioned was that the Dem. mantra in the first debate had everyone claiming ALL of these things should be FREE for everyone! --

That is only pandering for votes! There is no "FREE" when it comes to these things! Someone always has to pay (taxpayers)! -- But, the Dem. candidates all pretend that they will force some small, obscenely wealthy group of 'Daddy Warbucks' types to pay their "fair share" ... so nobody else has to pay anything! When and where has that ever worked?

IDK if I can go there for communism but I know I can always come here for melodramatic hyperbole.

Here is a safety net breakdown. Oh wait-it is 9% not 50% Safety Net Programs - Federal Safety Net

I would like to see everyone paying for health care including those who are receiving aid and those who are receiving dividends. It should not be a burden just on the employed.

Are you planning on using medicare and social security when you retire or are you already using it? If so, the Republicans want to take that "socialist/communist/snowflake/progressive" stuff away from you. Good luck with your Trump vote. It is a vote for his own empire.

Every one of the candidates (save for maybe Gabbard) are following Saul Alin sky's 'Rules For Radicals' "woke" playbook. Alinsky was a communist.
It's so obvious what is happening but you people just can't see it. It's right in front of your eyes. They ARE all a bunch of Bolsheviks.

Such a dull bunch of dolts. I predict Dems will sit out the 2020 election out of boredom. They should relax, take a few deep breaths and enjoy the time they have left before 2024 when everyone will run for office on both sides.

Point being: They will never go BACK...they are all communists and pushing communism...so ultimately that is their goal. They will not go back to sane/sensible...they are "woke" now, and that is all that will matter going forward. There is no room for a "moderate" like Gabbard in their party any longer.
I disagree. Communism (actually socialism-in spite of some of the claims-actual Communism has never existed) has failed wherever it has been tried. The Soviet Union crashed and burned 30 years ago. "Communist" China has embraced capitalism more than we do. Cuba a failed nation. Venezuela, same. Once that disaster of a political system fails, the people eventually reform the nation into something more successful and productive. It's a matter of time before sane, moderate, working class Democrats take back the Democratic party from the "free chit" far-left telling lies to buy votes.

The Trump re-election assistants can be counted on to make him look brilliant. Every policy they have is a train wreck for jobs and the country. A top tax rate of 97.5% by one of the assistants is just too good........gold star for that one......
