trump on Sanders: "I think he's a communist".

[denem]

(Transcript from Super Bowl, Hannity interview)

"I think he’s a communist. I mean, you know, look, I think of communism when I think of Bernie. Now, you know, you could say ’socialist’, but didn’t he get married in Moscow? And that’s wonderful, Moscow is wonderful ... (Hannity - it might have been a honeymoon) ... but you don’t necessarily think in terms of marriage, Moscow. And it’s wonderful, I’m not knocking it, but I think of Bernie sort of as a socialist, but far beyond a socialist. At least he’s true to what he believes."

I don't watch trump interviews or rallies. I mute when his face appears on TV. I must say I am shocked how much he appears to have deteriorated. He talks more like a 4 year old now.

1. So now we know who President Pig Vomit fears the most... BERNIE!!

Under the "President-Shitstain-is-Crapping-His-Pants" Standard that was used to promote Biden - when tRumpy The Clown attacked Biden - it's obviously now BERNIE whom tRumpy is too scared to run against, as splained by this unwarranted attack against Bernie... it's to help defeat him in his primary race against Biden, whom tRumpy would rather face.

GO BERNIE!!


Bernie/Elizabeth or Elizabeth/Bernie 2020!!
Either way, they're stronger together & can't be bought!!
Jump on the Bernie Bandwagon & join The Revolution!!

[denem]

2. What have you got against Pig Vomit? :)

[InAbLuEsTaTe]

Oh wait, my bad again.. I keep doing it!! (Sorry.)


Bernie/Elizabeth or Elizabeth/Bernie 2020!!
Either way, they're stronger together & can't be bought!!
Jump on the Bernie Bandwagon & join The Revolution!!

[denem]

5. LOL!

[denem]

3. Love it how he has to keep saying "Moscow is wonderful"

[patricia92243]

6. I was shocked at this. Any chance his followers were actually

listening to what he said.

[denem]

8. It's on one ear, out the other with trumpers.

Beavis and Butthead level communication. Heh hee hee.

[getagrip_already]

12. stream of conscienceless.. it's all he has...

One of his aides was probably reviewing how they would take bernie apart and he tweeted part of it because it was fresh on his mind. He has no strategy. Just repeats things he hears.

His aides have strategy, and he plays along, which is how the ukraine thing got going.

They have a plan to destroy bernie, and it won't be pretty.

[NCProgressive]

20. It shows Trump is not afraid of Bernie but is just itching to bury him nt

[duforsure]

7. He's had wives from communist families

Calling someone else that is typical trump speak when he's aligned with Communist , and their way of governing , then uses this to project others are, then lies and claims another candidate is. Its never attacks on policies , and always he attacks with lies about their character when he's the most corrupt criminal we've ever had in OUR government who welcomes putin with open arms and calls Kim a great friend . He'll soon claim Bernie is corrupt projecting he's a liar all because that's how he always does , lies , and lies a lot. Its about policies people, trump will destroy health care, Social Security and Medicare and Medicaid, and our environment , and the rule of law, and Democracy while claiming others are bad. Remember he didn't give us a better healthcare plan , attacked and weaken it instead, and Mexico is not paying for the wall , you are, while trump and republicans gave the top wealthy people windfall tax returns forever, some getting a billion dollars yearly from his policy.

10. ...

[no_hypocrisy]

11. Ha! Trump/Putin calling Bernie a communist!

That's rich!

[robbedvoter]

15. It may be, but table turning is a Russian specialty and the GOP made

good use of it. At every turn.

[Zolorp]

13. Sanders was a Communist for several years

He even appeared on the Vermont ballot as an elector for the Socialist Workers Party of America, which is a Communist Party that broke off from the Communist Workers Party of America in support of Trotsky.

He was on the ballot under that party twice, once in 80 and again in 84.

So, there is the fact that Bernie was indeed a Communist for several years.

[LongtimeAZDem]

17. +1

[robbedvoter]

14. an answer from Burnie would have been nice. Raher than just laughing.

🍊 may be an idiot but even he knows that if the debate is over communism rather than on himself, he's home free.

[myohmy2]

16. trump, the pathological liar...

...calling honest, truthful Bernie a 'Commie' is a badge of honor...

...trump calling honest, truthful Bernie a 'Commie' means Bernie represents the right change and direction for our country and that directional change is a direct threat to trump and his greedy 1% allies...

...nothing wrong with that...

...that's if people even knew what a 'Commie' was...

[denem]

18. Does Lieutenant Colonel of the KGB qualify as communist?

That would be trump's close confidant, Vladimir Putin, prior to entering politics.

[Zolorp]

19. But Bernie WAS a Communist for several years.

He appeared on the Vermont ballot in 80 and 84 as a Communist (Socialist Workers Party of America, look it up, Trostky Communists).

Once the ads about that play 24/7, I doubt Sanders would even be able to take D.C.. Too many people there worked against the Soviet Union for decades during the Cold War.

[denem]

21. Sanders endorsed the SWP nominee for president in 80 and 84.

I don't think he was on a ballot as an SWP nominee at any time. Is there a record of his SWP membership?

[Zolorp]

23. He sure as hell was on the ballot both years.

HE was there as an SWP Elector. Both years.

[denem]

25. Link?

In 84 he was Burlington Mayor.

[Zolorp]

28. Sorry, was wrong about '84

Endorsed the candidate in '84 and campaigned for hi,

Was right about '80, though

"Sanders also served as a presidential elector for the Socialist Workers’ Party in 1980"

22. easily...

...and quickly understood as 'youthful exuberance'...

...I'm telling you, hardly anyone under 60 even knows what a 'Commie' was...

...Bernie can handle it...it's not the right-wing republican damning smear it used to be...


...ask around, see if I'm right...

[Zolorp]

24. Youthful Exuberance???? BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!!!

He was a grown ass man then! He was in 39 the first time he was on the ballot under the SWP and was 43 the second time!

[Moostache]

27. Just for the record...

I am about to be 49 in a few days time and I may be grown, but I still feel like an ignorant kid a lot. Time is getting away from me, as it does for us all, but the number of days or years lived is not the be-all and end-all of experience, learning, doubting or changing from what you ARE to what you BECOME later...

[Zolorp]

29. Won;t make a difference with most of this country.

If Sanders is nominated I fear Trump becoming the second president in history taking the entire Electoral College, something even Reagan couldn't do in his '84 blowout.

[myohmy2]

30. you're...

...making too much out of this...

...when trump run ads with Marx, Lenin and Bernie, Bernie will run ads with Hitler, Mussolini and trump...

...when trump calls Bernie a 'Commie', Bernie will call trump a Nazi...

...when trump shows pics of gulags, Bernie will show pics of death camps...


...we can handle it...

[Zolorp]

33. Nope, the United States will NEVER elect a former Communist.

Will. Not. Happen. In. This. Country!

[myohmy2]

35. stranger...

...things have happened...

...we elected trump...

[Zolorp]

36. Time and again in the history of elections in this world have proved something.

When faced with a choice between Communism and Fascism, electorates go for Fascism every time.

It's how Hitler and Mussolini both got elected.

[myohmy2]

38. that...

…was yesterday...

...Bernie's not touting Communism, he offering policies and programs most of the world has adopted and considers normal and acceptable...

...'everyone's off to the collective' won't sell or resonate...


...we can handle it...

[Zolorp]

39. Disagree completely

HE will be painted with his past and the electorate will overwhelmingly reject him over it.

It is possible Trump could become the first president since Washington to win the Electoral College unanimously.

[OneMoreCupOfCoffee]

34. Yeah, 43 is yOuThFuL ExUbErAnCe????

[OneMoreCupOfCoffee]

31. A badge of honor?

No man.

We need to eject the orange slime, not guarantee his re-election.

[randr]

26. Just can't make this stuff up

Maybe Bernie should come right out in the open and make Putin a better deal?

[SmartVoter22]

32. America was designed to accept ALL political ideologies

How stupid are these Republicans? The very basis of our Constitution allows for any ideology to be equally embraced. These traitors are promoting the very thing we revolted against in the 1770's.
Every young person knows this and rejects the infantile idea that any idea is somehow bad. They are open minded and tolerate a far broader approach to every subject. Political parties that discriminate have decided that America was a bad idea.
It's time to give the GOP a serious 'time out', so they can start understanding what happened, globally in the late 18th century.
Karl Marx's general, communism theory focused on any govt spending taxes for the welfare of it's citizens.
America does this by funding roads, schools, utilities and standards that benefit the citizens.

These idiots who think they know what communism is, do not understand the basics of how every single government in the world actually operates. We need to acknowledge this ignorance by ignoring them entirely, at the polls and in everyday life.

[Zolorp]

37. The American System was designed as a marketplace of ideas.

Communism and Socialism has historically been big losers in that marketplace of ideas in this country.

To this day, the vast majority looks unfavorably on Socialism.

Throw in Sanders' history with Communism, and he's a loser out of the starting gate in a nationwide election.
