Actually, I think the preferred term was “reactionary.” In the Soviet Union, that word could get you arrested...
That is why I used to have a tag line like “I’m reactionary, hirsute, gun-owning, knuckle dragging, pro-life, Neanderthal and proud of it!”
I’ll probably switch back to after the election.
“While there may not be large numbers of card-carrying communists lining the halls of Congress, there is a clear tie between the Democratic Party’s Congressional Progressive Caucus (CPC), Communist Party USA (CPUSA), and the Democratic Socialists of America (DSA).”
I’d call them on it. Pretty simple really.
“Hi Mr/Ms. Card Carrying Congressional Communist. You are a member of the US Congress and are a member of CPUSA which is a Communist organization. Why hide???? If you believe your policies and politics is what this nation needs to move forward, come out and tell us how. The fact that you are hiding your true political views from your constituency should tell them everything they need to know to throw your commie ass out of congress.”
And I would make this a NATIONAL Campaign ad.
