The fight is between the true communists who put the agenda before personal enrichment and the kleptocrats who put personal enrichment before the agenda.
It does not mean the communists do not enrich themselves. They do. Look at Bernie Sanders with three mansions. But Bernie always votes for the agenda first.
Clinton/Pelosi put personal enrichment before principles. That is why Bill could say “The era of big government is over” while selling out to China.
Quite true. On the whole, one would prefer to be ruled by grifters instead of communists, but rule by grifters generates the disorder and discontent that can make communism seem appealing. Preferring Pelosi to AOC is like preferring to have untreatable cancer instead of a major, disabling stroke. No matter one’s preference in the abstract, the actual experience is always dismal.
“ That is why Bill could say “The era of big government is over” while selling out to China.”
That cannot be said enough or loud enough. Preach it, Brother! I can’t believe we have allowed this guy so much latitude.
