WASHINGTON (AP) — Communism, President Donald Trump says, is the greatest threat the U.S. has ever faced.
This summer, citing similarly grave concerns, he took the rare step of delivering a primetime address to the nation, accusing China of “sinister election meddling” in 2020 and reviving his yearslong push to dispute his loss in that year’s election.
Even as Trump seeks to decry Democrats as communists ahead of November’s midterm elections, he is rolling out the red carpet this week for Chinese President Xi Jinping, the leader of the world’s most powerful communist country.
The state visit comes as the president himself has increasingly directed his administration to take large stakes in private companies to try to stimulate the economy — something even some Republicans decry as corporate socialism.


Can someone please ask that blithering idiot to define communism?
Right after he learns what groceries are and that dumb has a b on the end
Would be funny to see.
Yes, although I’m finding it hard to find him funny since he got re-elected instead of locked up forever. It’d undoubtedly also be mind-numbingly stupid and wrong and make me lose yet another little piece of my sanity.
One thing that makes me a bit happy as a communist is that he correctly recognizes that his biggest threat is communism, so he labels all of his opposition as such.
