COMMUNISM: It’s never worked

| January 26, 2022 1:00 AM

Does anyone in this country ever stop to think about what this socialist Democrat Party could have accomplished if they hadn’t spent the last six years trying to destroy it?

There must still be some that have a mind that allows them to remember what democracy is all about. You remember those words written years ago about free speech, freedom, truth, etc. They seem to be vanishing.

Not so long ago you could hear about all of them on radio, TV or the newspapers. I can remember mornings when I had a cup of coffee and relaxed with them. With a few exceptions, they seem gone.

You can pretty much thank the socialist Democrat Party for that. It seems to have been their goal for the last few decades, from progressives to socialists, the next step would be communism.

We know all about communism. It seems like individuals and some large corporations may be trading large dollars back and forth. Why? Could we be aiding the worst communist nation this world has ever seen? To what end? More money, political gain, overall power. Ask the people in China that have no rights at all. Even their organs are harvested and sold, whether they agree or not. You don’t ever disagree with our dictator.

Communism has never worked. Go back as many centuries as you like. It may have had name changes from king to today. If it walks like a duck, quacks like a duck, looks like a duck, 100 percent it’s a duck.

Great platform, Democrats.
