Trump is going all out to tie Democrats to his latest political boogeyman: socialism

President Donald Trump is increasingly trying to tie Democrats to socialism and the White House even released a report on the economic costs of a socialist system. The move to bring up socialism more appears to be an an effort to drive up GOP turnout during the midterms.

  • President Donald Trump is increasingly trying to link Democrats to socialism, possibly in an attempt to drive Republican voters to the polls.
  • Trump has pointed to the growing popularity of Bernie Sanders' "Medicare for All" plan as evidence of socialist influence in the party.
  • Concurrent with this push, the White House Council of Economic Advisers released a 72-page report on "The Opportunity Costs of Socialism."
  • The report attempted to tie policies like Medicare for All to the ideology of dictators like Vladimir Lenin and Mao Zedong.
