I think the education system has been totally corrupted by the marxist left.

Um, when you push all your industries overseas and then let tens of millions of foreigners flood in to take the few jobs left, and THEN you don’t let Don Trump tariff the competition out of the game, well....that will get people going on the idea that maybe the Socialists have a point.

Make America Great Again and socialism will seem rather unnecessary.

Some people act surprised as if Socialism and Communism came out of nowhere to take over America. But its been building for decades. What do you think the Welfare State is? What do you think transfer payments are? Welfare. Food Stamps. Subsidized Housing. Obamaphones. Medicaid. Even subsidized Medicare. And the Democrats have created middle class subsidies so they aren’t just for the poor. The new American Dream is “gimme gimme gimme and make the ‘rich’ pay for it.” Get money from the government paid for by someone else. So of course Socialism and Communism gain traction. The ideal that you have to be self-sufficient went out the window a long time ago.

The democratic Party is our “National Socialist” Party. You can easily figure out where that term came from.

Socialism/communism will always be popular among those who think they can get something for nothing.

Since the 1880s and the industrialization of America “socialism” has had a significant following throughout the heartland. However prosperity, the World Wars and the leftward evolution of the Democratic Party mitigated its expression. What is different today is that the common values that that resulted in a reasonable social consensus among Americans has eroded. Face it many Americans have embraced a neo pagan, epicurean, hedonistic life style. Drug use is rampant. Even native Americans are ignorant of their heritage, poorly educated and dependent. The numerous diverse migrants and foreign born as a whole are worse. “Democratic socialism” attracts them. Expect more virulently anti American people such as AOC, Taub, Mamdani, Platner,Johnson etc to be elected to high office. Soon they will drop any pretense of patriotic devotion. Decent, hard working patriotic Americans will be challenged and hard pressed.

“Democratic socialist”....a euphemism for a communist. Party goal is to destroy America from within.

In 1912, socialist candidate Eugene V. Debs received 6% of the popular vote (901,551 votes). This is by far the most number of votes any avowed socialist presidential candidate has ever received.

It also happened because the Republican party was split between W.H. Taft and T. Roosevelt. What isn’t mentioned is that the Democrats had embraced “internationalist socialism” and the T. Roosevelt ‘Bull Moose’ faction of the Republicans had embraced “national socialism”, thought *both* the Democrats and the BM Republicans called their version “Progressivism”.

So, in effect, the 1912 election had three “socialist” candidates and one centrist.

Not to mention the millions upon millions (Trump cites 20 million) of - “migrants” Biden let into the country who, as Pat Buchanan says “will vote themselves services every time.”

And yes they are voting.

Suffice to say, democratic socialism could be a political force for years to come in the American heartland.
.....

We’ll see.

If Govt of the Swamp, by the Swamp, for the Swamp perishes from this earth, it would mean the democrat socialists we’ve had for decades in DC are nearly out of business.

Article says socialists are winning in the “Heartland” and points to Chris Rabb, running for Pennsylvania’s 3rd Congressional District. That district is Philadelphia - downtown, west, NW Philly. Not heartland, not flyover, but east coast, urban, deep blue city.
