Never go full socialist.

The GOP is figuratively licking their chops, awaiting the new socialists in the Democratic Party to put their socialist extremism on full display for the entire country in the upcoming Democratic presidential debates.
A 2018 Gallup Poll indicated Americans aged 18 to 29 are more positive about socialism (51%) than capitalism (45%). And, in the most recent May 2019 Gallup Poll, more than four in ten Americans believe socialism would be good for the country.
Has the GOP forgotten that the avowed socialist Bernie Sanders won 23 states and 19 million-plus votes in the primary? Could that result be a larger and significantly more important indication of a political trend than the non-politician and populist Trump winning the presidency?
While the GOP is gleefully anticipating these Democratic presidential debates, they should be mindful that younger generations (and many independents) view socialism entirely differently. Older Americans (translation: baby-boomers) typically define socialism as when government owns all means of production and where history has proven it is a stepping stone to communism. Even Lenin stated socialism’s ultimate goal is communism.
The new democratic socialists believe socialism is about “equality.” Translated, they mistakenly believe corporations are inherently evil, Wall Street and banks are modern-day Robber Barrons, capitalism hasn’t addressed gender income inequality, and the top income earners don’t pay their fair share in taxes. To them, those of privilege have only gotten that way by taking from the middle/working class and the poor.
For those who have studied history, the desire for “equality” is exactly how socialism took root in Russia, Cuba, Venezuela, and other places – only to lead to totalitarianism . . .

That’s because the GOP by-and-large is hollow.
But Patriots’ fight against socialism is genuine as seen with with Trump.
Fighting socialism is about doing...and it ain’t gonna happen.
Egalitarianism abolishes causality in the earning of income, resulting in people doing too little, and it abolishes causality in the spending of income, causing people to be unconcerned about cost, resulting in people spending too much. The evasion of causality is one of the signs and symptoms of irrationality.
id rather be dead than ruled by a Socialist
It all started to go bad when Bush 41 covered up for the ATF and FBI for Ruby Ridge.
They now knew they could get away with murder if they said the right words.
When you have 90% of the academic/education systems touting and preaching it and the media not being honest about its history because their side of the political spectrum is supporting it any wonder?
Also without the MSM the mouthpiece that is the GOP is weak in comparison. Let us face it for better or worse, the GOP just isn’t as good at propaganda.
“...That’s because the GOP by-and-large is hollow....”
Domestic enemies of our free Republic. Cowards and greedy non-patriots. They deliberately do nothing to fight our destruction....serving only their own empowerment and self-serving politics.
They will happily see that you make that choice. If you haven’t read th black book of communism.. the genocide was real. They are more serious about this than we are
They can’t wait to kill and enslave.. it is the very basis of their religion.
I’m the opposite. I’d rather be alive and in control with socialists dead.
id rather die fighting them than disgrace the memories of my father and uncles by knuckling under to a dictator. ill declare war and fight to the end. beware what you sow Bernie, you will reap the whirlwind.
The normal political process will never defeat the socialists. That’s why God raised up PDJT. With Trump and the military on our side, we have options we otherwise would not have.
This articles author is VERY BAD AT MATH at the very least... probably a product of the only true socialist construct in the United States, the public school system.
You may win some democrat primaries as a socialist but the math is nowhere near where it needs to be to win the general.. which is why democrats have lied for decades about their socialist and communist goals, because they know if they are honest about them they will lose...
Please put an avowed socialist as the nominee.. especially against Trump.. please do it.
"The fundamental economic question to be answered in any society is "Who is to get how much of what?" The competing answers to that question are embodied in the ideological struggles in which we find ourselves engaged today.There really are only three ways to answer this fundamental question. Dr. F. A. Harper analyzed these in his book, Liberty: A Path To Its Recovery, as follows:
1. Each person may have whatever he can grab.2. Some person other than the one who produces the goods and services may decide who shall have the right of possession or use.
3. Each person may be allowed to have whatever he produces.
These three methods cover all the possibilities; there are no others.
The first is readily recognized as the law of the jungle; the second is that utilized by all authoritarian systems, while the third is the only method consistent with individual freedom.
"Who is to have how much of what?" That is the question. Communism has an answer, as does National Socialism and Fascism. The Fabians and Democratic Socialists think they have the answer. But when all these systems are analyzed, they come out the same, differing only in degree: The State will determine who is to get how much of what! This obviously means the economic questions will be answered by force and coercion.
But there is a better way: let the free market, willing exchange, profit and loss system determine what will be produced and in what quantity; who will produce it for what compensation; and who will receive it at what price.
There are really only two choices: to answer the economic questions by free choice — or by coercion!

It’s easy to be stupid and naive about the real world.
See my handle for an example
Have you met Nancy or Maxine? Both of those clowns are in their 70s.
OK it’s the general rule
RINO Neocons are Trotskyists. They are socialists (slow-motion communists).
Never go full socialist.
