27. Fascist and hate groups

Mar 2019

Are the face of the former republican party and for trump now, and yes they should be having every Democrat going on tv accusing them of it openly , and not hiding it anymore. That's what they are. They want to demonize socialists now when they take government money in their businesses more than anyone else, like golf clubs and building projects, yet want other to think its Democrats only. Also the Dems need to say they want to take your Social Security and all other programs now, and already started taking just under 2 trillion out of Social Security, Medicare, and Medicaid to pay for the wealthy tax windfall for themselves.

Now you're talking. Creeping fascism is right. brush Mar 2019 #1
