    Hopefully she's just saying that to win over the older people who poop their pants when they hear "Socialism."

    The old farts who are still living the 1950s Red Scare in their minds, and spending time wondering it there is a communist under their bed, never were going to, and never will vote for a liberal or a Democrat.

    This is all about self promotion and sales in the wingnutosphere. Couch fainting and hand wringing about the communist threat drives white trash consumers to rightwing blogs, Fox Noise, Limbaugh, et al.

    GOP Grabs 'Socialism' as 2020 Lifeline

    I noticed

    they're actually doing liberals a favor, long past time to have a national discussion about American socialism, as in SS, Medicare, the VA, Medicaid, food stamps, all of it

    we'll see where the American people are on this issue, won't be good for conservative dinosaurs for sure

    Where, ironically, they are instructed to worship and stoutly defend their Glorious Tangerine Tyrant who kisses Putin's ring, among other things.

    Polls have repeatedly shown that a large majority of Americans favor these "socialist" programs.

    Unborn animals are protected in their nesting places, humans are not. To abort something is to end something

    As far as Sanders goes....Why hasn't Pelousy told him to go start his own party? They keep letting him leech off the Democrat Party. Just wondering.

    You old people need to get something through your head.

    Millenialls, GenX, pretty much anyone normal under the age of 45 are not going to be frightened by your archaic, outdated, and obsolete 1950s-vintage cold war lexicon about Bolsheviks, commies, and socialists.

    In the past three days, you have probably taken advantage of socialism every single waking hour of your life, from public roads, public water systems, public sewage disposal systems, public infrastructure, and by typing words on the internet which was invented by government scientists.

    Wow...all that's free? Guess I should stop paying for it then.

    Ocasio-Cortez is not a socialist.

    Public services are free because we pay taxes.

    Lying to get votes is what Democrats do best.
