During CNBC’s “Squawk Box,” network anchor Jim Cramer offered his reactions to the Nevada Democrat debate.
Host Joe Kernen called 2020 Democratic presidential candidate Sen. Bernie Sanders’ (I-VT) “genuine,” but Cramer called into question his socialist views, asking if he is really more of a communist.
“Genuine? Is he really a socialist or is he a communist?” Cramer asked. “What is socialist about what he wants? Joe, isn’t he more of a communist?”
Kernen replied, “He is. Well, oh no, I’m not saying that, I don’t, but — it’s a fine line, and it’s authoritarianism either way because you just can’t enforce it unless you put up a whole —”
“It’s a race to see who’s the poorest,” Cramer stated. “‘I’m poor.’ ‘No, I’m poorer than that.’ ‘You know what, I’m incredibly poor.’ ‘I don’t need TurboTax, I can do it with a pencil.’ I mean, wow. This is a party where whoever is the poorest is the person we celebrate.”

Actually, these were some pretty good observations about where the democrat party is now. Color me very surprised.

FYI the word “capitalism” is was coined by Karl Marx. the term you want is “free market”
socialism and communism are simply different forms of the same thing with the first starting the journey to the last
both are economic and political - its just a matter of emphasis
Crazy Bernie wants to seize the means of production and control the entire economy. He is absolutely a communist, a fascist and a tyrant.
Bernie the Commie want the Govt to run everything. Mini Mike wants to use the Govt to tell you what you can, and cannot do with everything you own.

A distinction without a difference...
“They think we’re stupid.”
As a Nation we are, for letting this horror show ever get this far.
Does it really matter?
Well, that is all very interesting, and especially the mention of authoritarianism. I wonder who in the DNC put them up to saying this?
By their classic definitions, a socialist is a communist who isn’t yet living in a total 100% communist society, but is working to make it 100% communist.
Socialism is the transition period between current govt and communism.
The truth is the leaders know they can never achieve true communism, so the elite inner party in charge of ‘overseeing’ the transition period stay in power forever, as they planned and wanted.
Or stage of cancer

Exactly!
A Socialist can have more than one mansion.
He’s a Soviet communist.
