Welcome to America

I don't consider the military and police, fire, the legal system, and maintenance of civil order to be examples of socialism. To me those are indisputably the proper functions of any government. However, a person would have to be naive to think that our country could survive if all forms of socialism ended today. I'm talking about things like public grade schools, state universities, social security, medicare, Medicaid, unemployment insurance. We all benefit by government programs, oversight, and regulation one way or another.

No. I don't love socialism.

Definition of SOCIALISM

So you dislike public libraries, public parks, public schools, public rest rooms, public drinking fountains, public parking etc? I guess you want all of these privatized.

Socialism is a boogey man word. We, and a lot of republics and democracies have some socialist programs. Interstate highway system, social security, FAA, our Department of Defense, police and fire departments are all examples of socialism. You should stop listening to the greedy fear-mongers.

Trumpanzees can’t distinguish between the forms of social programs that are beneficial to society and the form of socialism where we all stand in line for everything to be doled out to us. It’s just black and white to them. Hell, these idiots still think Trump is an honest Christian man.

They think that Nazis are socialists, koala bears are bears, and that today's Republicans are the party of Lincoln.

Who's your pick to beat Trump in 2020 and why?

Trump. His delusions of grandeur.

Who's your pick to beat Trump in 2020 and why?

The courts because he’s a crooked S.O.B.

Who's your pick to beat Trump in 2020 and why?

It could come from within his own party. At the very least, he may have some unexpected debating to do.

Just so I understand this in black and white: do you progressives say that Trump/Trump campaign/Trump people committed fraud? If fraud was committed, what do you think the punishment should be?
