Because America was doing so well compared with Russia, Stalin wanted to denigrate American society in the eyes of the world. He decided to focus on how racist and, in today’s words, anti-diverse Americans were. When the trial of Sacco and Vanzetti happened, he sent agitators to cause riots and crate a movement claiming that Sacco and Vanzetti were victims of (again, in today’s terms) being discriminated against.
At the candlelight vigil arranged for one of the executions the wife of a famous American novelist (whose name escapes me at the moment) said to the woman who had organized the vigil, “Gosh, I hope the governor grants clemency.” The woman disdainfully said, “Don’t be ridiculous. We want him executed. He’s no good to us alive.” She said that later when she’d told her husband he said he’d drop his support of their movement she warned him, “I think these people are dangerous. If you publicly say anything, they may hurt us.”
This is the Left. They are no different now than when they were under Stalin. When they say they want bad things for us so they can get back into power, believe them.
If Obama had been killed by a foreign government while in their country, we who thought so little of him would have considered it an act of war. The Left is hoping against hope that President Trump will walk into a literally fatal trap in Pyongyang.
