President Donald Trump on Friday seized on the electoral success of several democratic socialist candidates to ramp up his attacks on the Democratic Party, claiming it was being taken over by “godless Communists” who pose an existential threat to the nation.
The heated rhetoric marked the latest bid by Trump to portray Democrats as political extremists ahead of November’s midterms — even though portrayals of even the party’s most liberal candidates as “communists” are far from reality.
“These are hard core, godless Communists,” Trump wrote in a Truth Social post earlier on Friday, an accusation he repeated during remarks to a gathering of social conservatives. “This is the Greatest Threat to our Country since its Founding 250 years ago!”
Is this the same “god” that demands rich people give all their wealth the poor and needy, and that their followers do everything in their power to provide for the needs and well-being of others?
I think you’re confused it’s the god that wants poor people to give everything they have to the rich people.
I forgot. They worship Ayn Rand and Supply-Side Jesus, don’t they?
I think these days Ayn Rand is too far left and Jesus is a useless hippie long hair communist.
“godless” isn’t a negative in every person’s eyes.
If only they actually were
Speaking as a godless communist: 😂
Theres really very little difference between the policy aims of republicans and DNC centrists. They should really get along like peas and carrots.
“Godless” says the unrepentant walking embodiment of all seven deadly sins.
They can’t just call anyone they don’t like a communist
They sure can, and sadly the red scare made it so just uttering the word “communist” acts like a sleeper agent wake word
The GOP has been doing that since the 50s and it has worked. Why should they stop now.
Letting the government do anything good for you and your community, is the Republicans’ definition of communism and socialism. According to Republicans in Congress and the Trump admin and the Supreme Court, the role of the federal government to subsidize billionaires and trillionaires, undertake vanity DC projects that are utter failures, start pointless wars they can’t finish, make everything unaffordable, tax Americans through tariffs, pardon criminals only in exchange for
bribesgratuities, and send goon squads to harass immigrants and dissenters.Under these terms, who wouldn’t want communism and socialism?
Reporters need to start asking him his favourite Bible verse since he’s so devout

Literally what their greatest teacher Christ preached against.
Jesus (presuming he existed) lived in a culture steeped in slavery, yet he never bothered saying “hey guys, maybe don’t do that?”
What a great and wise teacher.

Literally what their greatest ~~teacher ~~
Mascot. Although according to their mythology, he did spend a great deal of effort on teaching, his would-be students refused to learn - a trait true of Christians to this day.
They love iconography of the guy though! …no not that iconography - can we make him more white? Perfect. That iconography.

That’s my point though. If I deliver a lecture to a brick wall, even an insightful, logical, factual, beautifully executed lecture, am I a teacher? For one to teach, another must learn. If Christians reject the lessons of their own god, the whole production is just one giant tragedy about a man and his son-self thing fruitlessly pleading with a pile of bricks. Despite their best effort, the bricks did not, do not, and will not learn; actively denying Sky Daddy & Super J the role of ‘teacher’.

We’re finally starting to get the left we deserve instead of the one pulled center by an opposition giving cover to rapists, pedophiles, spousal abusers and murderers.
In a country where a huge amount of people thought Biden was a communist a party like that might go over like a lead balloon.

Not if they successfully rebrand communism. People that are triggered by that word don’t have any clue it’s definition
They’ve been poisoning that well longer than America has been around.
Well, fuck. I can’t argue that. Still, though, I applaud those still putting up a fight
¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Yeah but now Americans are actually directly being affected by the fascist idiots that ripped the mask off early.
At this point a decent number of them are starting to wonder if the opposite side won’t be as bad. And that’s all that’s necessary to start righting the ship, if people are actually willing to step up and not just let the same octogenarian power brokers keep running everything.
We went from Trump being elected a second time, to a dozen Democratic Socialists being elected and districts flipping 30+ points in just 2 years.
Eventually people start to wonder why the rain is yellow and tastes like piss.
Sounds a lot better to me than ‘christian capitalists’ .
Christian capitalists? You mean the people who worship the antichrist pedo-fuhrer, who is the embodiment of the seven deadly sins?
That fucking golem is like something out of the Book of Revelation
I just wish the voters thought so too. Godless should be a compliment.
Well he got the godless part right
Well, I happen to like the godless communist ones. I’m cool with the godded communists, too, tbh.
Honestly even at face value a “godless communist” sounds pretty great right now.
I acknowledge that communism is not without its problems, but the US can afford to head in that direction for a few years.
It’s an existential threat to him, oligarchy and the billionaire class.
Bring it the fuxk on
