... The Trump administration launched a new television advertisement featuring President Donald Trump calling out socialism, communism and marxism, appearing to use government resources to go on air in the weeks before the midterm election.

The ad began airing Wednesday night, according to the ad tracking service AdImpact, and has aired on programs on Fox News and Newsmax along with connected TV platforms. It isn't clear where exactly the money is coming from, but says it is "paid for by the U.S. government" in a disclaimer text on the ad.

The 30-second ad features photos and videos of Trump, the American flag and military aircraft over the song "Love Me" by JMSN. It comes as Trump has struggled to win over voters ahead of the midterms, as Republicans have been battered at the polls by gas prices and the war with Iran.

"Together we will defeat communism, socialism and marxism in America," Trump said in the ad. "America will never be a communist country." ...

@#1 ... Together we will defeat communism, socialism and marxism in America," ...

That's quite the comment by Pres trump.

My first question: is Pres Trump speaking for all Americans?

... and as a follow-up...

Does Pres Trump even have the barest of a clue of which he spouts?

Without socialism, aka bailouts, capitalism would have failed decades ago.

Republicans are the stupidest people in America and billionaires are exploiting them.

Maybe. But I am not yet convinced of that.

... Republicans are the stupidest people in America and billionaires are exploiting them. ...

OK, I have issues with that comment.

For starters, Republicans are not all stupid.

To wit ... The billionaire Republicans seem to be quite cognizant of the damage they seem to be precipating upon the Country.

But they don't seem to have a need to care, because their mounds of money will buy them an exit.

"America will never be a communist country."

And America will never be a fascist country.

See you in Hell, Donald.

Since the biggest indicator a government is Marxist/communist is the government owning the means of production, does this mean that Trump is going to reverse his policy of the US government taking ownership stakes in US companies (Intel, US Steel, IBM, Lithium Americas, etc)?

BFD, your beloved tax dollars have already paid trillions for over two decades of constant warfare that has mainly targeted, maimed and murdered innocents.
