He&#8217;s giving deranged speeches that consist mainly of infantile insults aimed at his perceived enemies, exaltations of himself for his vanity driven Capitol <em>&#8220;beautification&#8221;<\/em> projects, and dispensing lies pretty much every time he opens his mouth. Most of all, he is trying to malign Democrats as anti-American traitors, but his characterization of them as villains from 1950s comic books isn&#8217;t helping his own self image at all.<\/p>\n<p><strong>SEE THIS: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.newscorpse.com\/ncWP\/?p=70240\" target=\"_blank\">Wannabe Dictator Trump Resorts to Threatening People to Respect Him or \u2018You\u2019re Going to Have a Problem\u2019<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>On Monday morning Trump dispatched his Propaganda Secretary, Karoline Leavitt, to her regular post on Fox News to assist his failing PR campaign. It doesn&#8217;t seem like she did much to help. But she gave it her all in attempting to advance Trump&#8217;s latest desperate effort to portray Democrats as communists. She engaged in the following exchange with Fox&#8217;s Lawrence Jones&#8230;<\/p>\n<blockquote><p><strong>Leavitt:<\/strong> These are radical, Marxist ideas that have never worked in the history of the world. And I think that it&#8217;s a choice coming up between communism and common sense. That&#8217;s how the president views it. And that&#8217;s why Americans need to vote for this president and Republican Party and the common sense ideals that make this the greatest nation in the history of the world.<br \/>\n<strong>Jones:<\/strong> Do you think this helps the president and the Republican Party during the midterms that they have decided in this Democratic Socialist civil war that this is the new Democratic Party?<br \/>\n<strong>Leavitt:<\/strong> It certainly is.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<blockquote class=\"bluesky-embed\" data-bluesky-uri=\"at:\/\/did:plc:4llrhdclvdlmmynkwsmg5tdc\/app.bsky.feed.post\/3mpgj7h32xe2i\" data-bluesky-cid=\"bafyreigq5wief7o5vwmqf6anfkuvetgoxvbhaunnbuhj7kberx3tug6us4\">\n<p lang=\"en\">Leavitt: &#34;That&#39;s why Americans need to for this president&#34; (when will people be voting for Trump again?)<\/p>\n<p>&mdash; <a href=\"https:\/\/bsky.app\/profile\/did:plc:4llrhdclvdlmmynkwsmg5tdc?ref_src=embed\">Aaron Rupar (@atrupar.com)<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/bsky.app\/profile\/did:plc:4llrhdclvdlmmynkwsmg5tdc\/post\/3mpgj7h32xe2i?ref_src=embed\">2026-06-29T12:42:33.037Z<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><script async src=\"https:\/\/embed.bsky.app\/static\/embed.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/p>\n<p>This is yet another example of dimwitted, purposefully misleading, Republicans demonstrating that they have absolutely no idea what the definition of communism is. They just use the word as an all-purpose pejorative to frighten their equally ignorant cult followers. They might as well be warning about a pack of invading Sasquatch soldiers.<\/p>\n<p>Leavitt and Trump and other hive-minded Republicans were triggered by recent primary victories by progressive Democrats. Some of them identify as Democratic Socialists, who are not communists. In fact, Democratic Socialists are in the mainstream of American politics that brought about things like Social Security, interstate highways, public libraries, Obamacare, and more of the most popular programs in the nation&#8217;s history.<\/p>\n<p>What&#8217;s more, the GOP&#8217;s efforts to brand Democrats across the country as Socialists is small minded. The Democratic Party is big enough to embrace progressive Democrats in blue states and conservative Democrats in red and purple states. It isn&#8217;t one size fits all with blinded purity tests, like Republicans.<\/p>\n<p>Communism, on the other hand, is a theory of government that proposes eliminating private ownership and placing the means of production in the control of the government. There is absolutely no Democrat who has supported anything even close to those ideas. Ironically, only Trump has advocated for those policies. And in office he has been exerting state power over previously independent institutions such as banking, defense, technology, transportation, and even the free press.<\/p>\n<p>Trump has wielded that power by taking a role in corporate mergers, demanding multimillion dollar payments from corporations seeking government favors, and even forcing corporations to sell parts of the businesses to the government, or to him. It&#8217;s hard to tell if knows the difference. It&#8217;s as close to communism as any American president has ever come.<\/p>\n<p>As for the media, while Trump has defunded public media such as PBS, NPR, and even Radio Free America, he has literally sued media conglomerates for billions of dollars, forcing them to either pay up or suffer retribution dished out by regulatory agencies over which he has assumed corrupt control. And too often they have acquiesced. Communist leaders like Vladimir Putin and Kim Jong Un are watching with envy.<\/p>\n<p>The closer we get to the midterms, the more brazen Trump is getting. Just this month he has posted comments on <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.newscorpse.com\/ncWP\/?p=70107\" target=\"_blank\">his dedicated propaganda platform, Truth Social<\/a><\/strong>, warning that&#8230;<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>&#8220;<a href=\"https:\/\/trumpstruth.org\/statuses\/39616\" target=\"_blank\">In a time<\/a> when there is a powerful Communist Movement taking place in our Country, one more dangerous than World War I, World War II, Pearl Harbor, or September 11th.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>And that&#8230;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;<a href=\"https:\/\/trumpstruth.org\/statuses\/39548\" target=\"_blank\">I\u2019d be the Greatest Communist<\/a> in History.

[&#8230;] These are not social Dumocrats, these are hard core, godless Communists.&#8221;<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>So far, none of this is succeeding in improving Trump&#8217;s standing with the American people. Which means that, knowing Trump, we can expect him to continue to sharpen his attacks and make them even less comprehensible. And of course, he will lie and misrepresent reality to his MAGA cult at every opportunity. As an example of how far he will diverge from reality, Trump is claiming to have his <em>&#8220;Highest Poll Numbers Ever.&#8221;<\/em> No, really&#8230;<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"bluesky-embed\" data-bluesky-uri=\"at:\/\/did:plc:fviqe3xscfdntuwbuzppqetg\/app.bsky.feed.post\/3mpgwtjp5yk2m\" data-bluesky-cid=\"bafyreifg3bhn3vuyxw5j5kceljszphex2w5qypdbzgwuhxm7ld2p5ol7rq\">\n<p lang=\"en\">For the record&#8230;Trump&#39;s poll numbers at RECORD LOWS!
