    I am in the dark why in the USA the majority of citizens do not conflate the Democrats to the communist party. They operate with all the vigor of the communists.

    Democrats see it themselves. This is precisely how Hitler took power when he won the hearts of the German people. Democrats deliver much that Hitler delivered to his own people.

    Such as socialism. Such as national health care. Such as paid vacations up to 3 weeks long. Such as luxury ships for Germans to use for vacations. Such as a massive jobs program. The Jews were the tiniest part of the situation. Germany at the peak had less than a million Jews. The Jews being killed early in 42 forward for the most part were in other countries. It was once the Nazis killed many of those that they started shipping the native German Jews to meet their own fate in the gas chambers. Why wait for the Germans? Germans talk to each other. When Germans noticed Jews vanishing, it caused commotions. And of course the Nazis lied to them saying they only went other places to be resettled there. All that was a massive lie. But it took the Nazis hiding their crimes from the rest of the Germans for a long time to make it work.

    I suggest all who are interested read the Rise and Fall of the Third Reich by William Shirer.

    That is exactly what Kamala just promoted.

    Equality of outcome. Everyone's needs are met and everyone ends up in exactly the same place. No one has more or less than the person next to them.

    Some posters may inquire of me? Is that you Robert and where are you standing for that photograph.

    YES that is me at age 24 on a very cold bitter day in Amsterdam, Holland early in 1963. I pulled a dumb stunt and took an early leave hoping it was warmer in Holland than in Germany. I was as cold in Holland as in Germany. You do not see snow in the photo but the harbor at Amsterdam was filled with what seemed to be arctic ice. Birds in Amsterdam would walk on the ice that was on all the Canals there.

    I have personally seen Communism up close. Communism was very deadly. In China today Communism is still very deadly. Women who sell drugs get executed. I saw communism in East Berlin in 1963. If you love guards with machine guns on them, you might have loved East Berlin. Those are not merely rifles, look at the round part under the weapons, those are machine guns.

    The Berlin Wall. (Building began on 13 August 1961).

    East German soldiers with machine guns guard the provisional border between the east and west sectors of the city.

    You are totally wrong about Obama never had a "coup" working against him. From day one, Republicans, who have worked with many other Democratic Presidents, decided to obstruct everything Obama wanted to do, as a policy, regardless of whether what Obama wanted had merit. McConnell was the leader in this effort, which was very successful. But it shamed the Republican Party along with the Congress whenever they were in charge. I didn't recognize it at the time, but I now attribute this opposition to racism.

    Trump divides. That's his personality. Trump has never represented the whole U.S., or all its people. Trump works for himself, by himself. He's never a team player. He's the poorest President in history--not in finances, but in his human values like honor, honesty, respect, integrity, compassion, understanding, & all other attributes of worth. Anyone who likes him, must be like him, & that's a big negative all by itself.

    People who vote for Socialism are going to hate the Communism which will follow.

    That is not a coup. That is normal for the two houses. Notice I do not call what Nancy does daily a coup attempt. Trump represents all of us and only the Democrats crap all over the man. We appreciate what Trump is doing and has done.

    And one more matter. Democrats brag and brag that Obama accomplished so much. How did he accomplish so much if only McConnell blocked him?

    Democrats name all pet causes racism. This is to make it seem they are who are innocent of racism. They say racism like a sharp bayonet in fact.

    When I was a loyal Democrat, at that time the party did not shout racism all the time. And why is that? At that time Democrats were bleeding racists and I believe they still are racists.

    Not very long and definitely worth watching.

    Obama was an arrogant SOB behind closed doors. He absolutely refused to negotiate with Mitch or other Republicans. Then he accused the right of obstruction, the hypocrite.

    He also divided the county racially after years of continued healing a progress. He left a vaccum in the Democrat Party, and was only interested in his own legacy, not in helping build future Democrat leadership.

    Then he got Donald Trump elected. :)

    This diatribe did not start due to things Trump has done as president. This crap was happening ahead of the change of Government from Obama to Trump. The media was laying all this propaganda on us.

    If you want to rip Trump, at least focus on what he has done as president and not your warblings of times in the very distant past.

    Trump is a master over using Goverment as it should be used.

    We would never be this close to a life saving vaccine but for the massive efforts of Trump. Biden still hates the thought of a vaccine and Harris says she refuses to take it ever.

    Yeppers, just the truth of what happened. Obama is always presented by Democrats as a victim.

    Since I've never set foot in America, I can't say how comfortable they are. All I can do is watch with popcorn-worthy interest whenever a rich celebrity promises to leave on account of Trump.

    You'll be waiting a while. All you'll get is emotions and moral grandstanding.

    Lumping me with the right is okay with me. I use that term to connote freedom for all of us. Democrats shift hard core left in fact.

    Because the average Progressive Leftist thinks 'communism' is a nice cushy, choice-filled life exactly like the one they have now, but with extra freebies.

    What Obama accomplished in conjunction with Congress happened while Democrats controlled both houses. When they lost the House in 2010, McConnell succeeded in blocking everything Obama tried to pass, including his last nominee for the Supreme Court. When it was happening, I didn't connect it with racism. Now, with Trump & his white supremacists, & the new outbreak of racism across the nation, I do feel it was racism behind McConnell's obstructionism against Obama. Previous to Obama, Republicans did work with Democratic Presidents in what they regarded as common ground. With Obama, they didn't. I can't think of any reason for this change other than simple racism. I wish I could.
