“Here, in the United States, we are alarmed by new calls to adopt socialism in our country. America was founded on liberty and independence - not government coercion, domination and control. We are born free, and we will stay free. Tonight, we renew our resolve that America will never be a socialist country.” For many Americans, that statement revealed only a keen grasp of the obvious. But for significant, energetic sectors now assembling for the 2020 primary competition in the left wing of the Democratic Party, those were fighting words. Stand by in the coming months to hear that progressive fissure voiced over and over, and for Trump and other Republicans to foment it at every opportunity.
Thanks Oldeconomybuyer.

“How President Trump helps divide Democrats by fanning the flames of socialism”

true enough, but the idiot Dems lit the socialism fire to start with when they put AOC in charge of their party ...

Trump merely poured gasoline on their fire, being the extremely shrewd politician that he is (and someone in the WH reading FR to see my repeated exhortations i made here as soon as AOC’s GND came out to hammer away against socialism)

A good campaign slogan for Bernie would be “Vote for the old white guy”

... recent astute move came in probably the most-quoted part of his 5,100-word State of the Union address earlier this month.

The president had scorned Venezuela’s slide into turmoil and chaos under President Nicolas Maduro “whose socialist policies have turned that nation from being the wealthiest in South America into a state of abject poverty and despair.”

Then, Trump brought that news home for the nearly 47 million viewers watching live:

“Here, in the United States, we are alarmed by new calls to adopt socialism in our country. America was founded on liberty and independence — not government coercion, domination and control. We are born free, and we will stay free. Tonight, we renew our resolve that America will never be a socialist country.”

Trump hit this one out of the park... it's like Trump knows the hopes AND fears of our country.

How can they get so much backwards... upside down..
I know today.. in this time... everyone lies... when I say everyone, yes, there are still some honest out there.. but society has bcome “say whatever is needed to get off or make your point”.

Raising my kids, it was a sin of the worst, to lie to their parents. You just don’t do that and live! So today, they are adults and they don’t fudge or lie to anyone. It’s difficult to live and be the one who is truthful... and still be suspect by everyone else.. you are lumped in with all the liars. That doesn’t change them.

But society as a whole.. lies and thinks nothing of it. How can you have a converstation with anyone who lies to you.. you can’t.

So here are these reporters who regularly lie .. write things that are not true.. make things up.. and have the opinion it’s okay. It’s not Trump who has divided the nation.. it’s obama! Just because he does not do things like you do... you label him.

You have used the “free press” as a weapon and tried to ruin persons with your pen! You write anything you WISH were so... and report it as fact.. you are taking anything good and destroying it with your words.

I worked in a labor union in NYC back in the late 70’s and 80’s. I never worked on a Trump project but guys in my local did. They said “Mr. Trump’’ was a hell of a nice guy. Always would stop to chat with them, “Hiya fellas how are you doing?’’ “ And they'd say '' , Good morning Mr. Trump, doin' good!''. He was always good to the cops and firemen. He was a ‘’gentleman’’, the highest compliment a man can get from hard nosed New York working stiffs. He was also tough, a shrewd negotiator who knew how to get what he wanted and a master sand bagger. I keep telling Freepers to keep their eye on this guy. He's a fighter.

And Trump intended them as fighting words to reenergize the far Left to bare even more of what it is....the more and louder they talk, the more eyes get opened.
