Trump: I think Sanders is a communist
The Hill ^ | February 2, 2020 | Brett Samuels

Posted on 02/02/2020 7:09:26 PM PST by karpov

President Trump said in an interview broadcast Sunday that he thinks Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.) is a communist.

Fox News host Sean Hannity asked Trump in an interview that aired prior to Super Bowl LIV for quick reactions to a number of Democratic presidential candidates, including Sanders.

"I think he’s a communist. I mean, you know, look, I think of communism when I think of Bernie," Trump told Fox News host Sean Hannity.

"Now, you could say socialist, but didn’t he get married in Moscow?" Trump added, with Hannity interjecting to note Sanders went to the former Soviet Union on his honeymoon.

"I think of Bernie sort of as a socialist but far beyond a socialist," Trump continued. "At least he’s true to what he believes."

Trump's comments were broadcast a day before the Iowa caucuses. Sanders, who identifies as a democratic socialist, has been leading in the most recent polls in the state.

The president and his campaign last month started focusing additional attention on Sanders, who has consistently been among the best-performing candidates in polls alongside former Vice President Joe Biden.

Trump shouldn’t reveal that. Now all the Democrats will want to vote for him.

I’m really curious, he already identified as a socialist. Will he deny this charge or go full commie?

Sanders - an unapologetic believer in the most deadly ideology in human history.

The Dims will check President Trump and proclaim far and wide that Sanders honeymooned in Russia.

Regular Americans will never understand why someone would honeymoon in Russia

Perfect. It’s time that Communism was shorn of its ability to hide behind the softer “socialist” label. It means the same damn thing.

That wing is full of self-liars. Anti-fascist fascists largely support him as well.

Remember boys and girls, you can vote your way into socialism, but you’ll have to shoot your way out.


Concise.

A socialist is merely a communist who hasn't started killing- yet.

This way PDJT starts early, forcing Bernie to explain the difference between a “socialist” and a “communist.”

It's the killing, the killing.
