Donald Trump on Saturday ripped Vice President Kamala Harris’ plan to slap socialist price controls on groceries, saying she’s gone “full Communist.”
The Republican presidential nominee compared economic proposals to reduce inflation that “Comrade Kamala” announced a day earlier – which includes cracking down on price gouging – to infamously failed communist plans pushed in Venezuela and the former Soviet Union.
“In her speech yesterday, Kamala went full Communist …” Trump told a packed house of supporters at the Mohegan Sun Arena at Casey Plaza in Wilkes-Barre, Pa.
“She wants to destroy our country. After causing catastrophic inflation, Comrade Kamala announced that she wants to institute socialist price controls,” Trump said.
With food prices surging more than 20% nationwide during the Biden-Harris administration, Harris, during a North Carolina rally on Friday, unveiled economic policies she’d enact during her first 100 days as president.
They include having the Federal Trade Commission enforce a federal ban on price gouging that would slap hefty penalties on companies that set exorbitantly high prices.
“What they are doing is a communist takeover of our country,” Trump said of the Harris proposal.
“Her plan is very dangerous because it may sound good politically … This is Communist; this is Marxist; this is fascist.”
The ex-president also took a few minutes to offer the left-wing Washington Post rare praise for publishing a scathing editorial ripping Harris for claiming price gouging is causing inflation and, rather than offer a legit plan to fix it, offering only “populist gimmicks.”

He really needs to lay it on her during the debates.
It will never be too late to end communism, as proven by the fall of the Soviet Union. It will just take a tremendous of suffering to end it and revert back to a free market economy.
Many of the so called “Newcomers” may well not vote—or vote Trump. The hard core Republicans are Cubans who saw what life was like in the Cuban People’s Republic.

Comrade Kamala Harris is terrible for our Country. She is a Communist, has always been a Communist, and will always be a Communist. Under her “leadership,” the USA will fail, and fail quickly. We will not let that happen!!!
