It’s hollow shell has been filled with hard core Marxists/Communists.

I agree completely. The beginning of the infection goes back to Woodrow Wilson, and his Progressive ilk.

“Progressives,” not as we understand the term today, predate Wilson although he was our nation’s first true Leftist as we understand it. The original progressive movement in the US had its roots in the backlash against Industrial Revolution excesses. It’s the movement that gave us the income tax and direct election of senators, among other misguided “reforms.” Teddy Roosevelt is probably the most famous of that prototype progressive. But it was a perfect cloak for the rise of Marxism and its first derivative, communism. As such, it was a fertile ground for the Marxists of that day to sow their bitter seeds, which began to grow under Wilson, FDR and their successors. I agree with many that Wilson was among our worst, if not the worst president in our history.
