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.”

In Communism, only the party officials have nice things.
Bernie has 3 houses.
Therefore he is a Communist.
What will be the course of this revolution? Above all, it will establish a democratic constitution, and through this, the direct or indirect dominance of the proletariat.That is from The Princples of Communism by Engels. Democracy, as tyranny of the majority, is exactly what socialists/communists want.
Potato ... Potahto.
The difference between a socialist and a communist, is that the communist knows what he’s doing to others. The socialist has no idea what the hell he’ll do to others.
The difference between a Communist and a “Democratic Socialist” is that the “Democratic Socialist” lets us vote on whether we get sent to the gulags.
Regardless of other criteria, he is certainly on the communist side of the countries he presents as wonderful examples of socialism.
Otherwise he would be for cutting corporate taxes, and against his medicare-for-all plan in order to be like them.
You can be a socialist and a communist at the same time. And communists always call themselves socialists.
These people will lose their minds if Bernie gets the nomination.
“The goal of socialism is communism.’’ Vladimir Lenin.
A country can vote itself into socialism, but it can only shoot its way out.
A Communist begins shooting people on his way to power. A socialist waits a little bit.
Can’t stand that lying sack of shite Cramer.
Has he denounced Communism or does he insist that there are good people on both sides of that issue?

Bernie will have all of his enemies killed.
Communists do this.
Socialists do the mass killing by denying medical care.
Socialists are the same as communists in their goals.
They run things and you die at their leisure.
Communists are socialists in a hurry.
What difference does it make?
Great descriptions, from both of you.
He’s a commie, Jim.
They just cannot admit that Trump is doing great on the economy..and the democrats have no one except Bloomy
