Trump campaign flying anti-socialism banner above Democratic debate

President Trump’s reelection campaign will be flying a banner attacking socialism in Houston on Thursday, shortly before Democratic presidential candidates take the debate stage there.

An official with the campaign told ABC News that the group plans to fly a banner that reads, "Socialism will kill Houston's economy,” from 2 p.m. to 6 p.m. The third Democratic presidential debate is scheduled to begin an hour later.

The campaign also plans to take out two full-page advertisements in local newspapers taking aim at Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-Mass.), former Vice President Joe Biden and former Housing and Urban Development (HUD) Secretary Julián Castro. The ads will run in Houston and in San Antonio, where Castro was born, the campaign said.

Since the left loves to engage in 'in your face' political theatrics (like the Trump baby balloon) it only seems fair to respond in kind.

The Democrats have gone full socialist. Might as well call a spade a spade.

I LOVE that we finally have someone who is willing to turn the Alinsky tactics back on the Left.

President Trump should also fly a banner touting the Texas oil boom, which the dims would kill. If the dims ever succeed in killing fossil fuel, Houston would cease to exist.

Incredible that these Leftists chose Houston,hub of Texas oil and gas industry, for their anti-US energy show tonight. The thousands of Houstonians who make their living from this vital industry ought to be protesting, but it’s too hot to be in the streets.

The air conditioning and electricity should be cut off to Texas Southern, site of their show, as an object lesson illustrating the folly of these ignorant Democrats.

Calling them what they are “socialist” will resonate.

For those that have recently come from it will be affected.

I saw a white 30 something with a Bernie 2020 sticker on his car. Weak bearded.

Just shook my head. The stupidity is off the charts. Daddy issues?

It should read “Communism will kill Houston’s economy”. This connection with true ideology and agenda needs to be strongly exposed.

Flying a banner? Like Jeb did in '16?

Exactly.

Fight fire with fire.

Watch for the left to start screaming, 'it's not fair', we need to 'reign in divisive rhetoric', and 'we need to stop the spread of hate speech'.

Absolutely necessary to inform and educate the American people as to the open borders, anti American globalism, poverty inducing socialism, amoral decadence and abortion loving ideology of the Democrats. Sadly most decent Americans are not aware of this very real threat to the nation.

That would be fantastic!

“And this is what you will get if you elect me!”

Great.

Let's get creative with billboards.

Get a group of friends and drive around in a row with a phrase on a line of cars.

Smoky sky writing "Surrender Democrats!", a'la The Wizard of Oz, would really set them off. Not that it takes much effort to do so.

It’s time to quit being nice with the terminology, We know that the liberal socialism is just a stepping stone to communism as the end goal in the agenda, has been since the mid 60’s. It needs to be termed as what it truly is right now. I would sponsor a billboard if I lived there in a heartbeat.

How about 'A vote for a Democrat' series.

A vote for a Democrat is a vote for your own enslavement.

A vote for a Democrat is a vote to pay more for everything.

A vote for a Democrat is a vote to give the government control of your life.

A vote for a Democrat is a vote for failing schools.

A vote for a Democrat is a vote for homeless in your neighborhood.

A vote for a Democrats is a vote for a refugee center in your community.

A vote for a Democrat is a vote for higher taxes.

Etc.
