But even a "Commie" is better than "pedo protectors" and "corrupt grifters"... [View all]

A "Democratic Socialist" wins a race in New York and Trump and Republicans want to brand the Democratic Party as "Communist". This is all they have and it appears they are going to use this strategy up to election day.

Never mind that it is the Republican Party that runs around their rallies with T-shirts of Putin stamped on them. Never mind that it is Donald Trump that is "best buds" with the communists and dictators around the world.

Their strategy is clear. Try to brand the Democrats as "Communist". They are running from their own records. Democrats should have a response.
