Trump is much more of a Communist than any leftist politician... [View all]

He admires President Xi and wants the US to become more like Communist China, with authoritarian control over the populace and the government alone determining a corporation's policies.

He writes love letters to Communist Leader Kim Jong Un and wants to parade his military showing the same affection toward their dear leader.

He applauds Putin's attempt to rebuild the Communist Soviet Union while imprisoning and murdering any opposition and repressing all opposing discourse.

The branches of government no longer act with any checks or balances and must answer to the one Party that holds all the power. If you are not a Party member, then you have no pathway to the ruling elite, just as with the Communist Party.

As Karl Marx has predicted, Trump is selling the rope with which to hang capitalism by making it so corrupt that the only option will be to revolt against it.

Perhaps he should be tried for treason.
