Her Marxist dad taught her well…
When he called her a Marxist, she rolled her eyes and laughed: THE SAME TECHNIQUE THAT HAS WORKED FOR COMMIES IN THE USA FOR THE PAST 75 YEARS PLUS. DEFLECT, LIE, RIDICULE THE ACCUSER, CALL HIM A CONSPIRACY THEORIST.
So, so sad that instead of President Trump pressing her on the issue, asking her to deny it, or asking her very simply, "why are you a Marxist" it would have been a true blow for freedom. Instead, he slinked, pouted, looked downward, glowered, and looked guilty. JUST AS JOE MCCARTHY DID BACK IN 1948. SO DEPRESSING.
