They don’t give the slightest damn how voters feel about socialism.
In fact, the more voters don’t like socialism, the more they’ll enjoy ramming it down our throats.
Anyone who doesn’t understand this doesn’t understand the psychology of “power for its own sake.”
Most of the country remains too mentally paralyzed with fear of the Communist Chinese Cooties to consider how they “feel” about socialism. Also, if they graduated from a public school or a liberal arts college they may not know what the term means.
