Why has “socialist” become Republicans’ go-to insult for middle-of-the-road Democrats? On one level, their antics are simply a carryover from President Trump’s election strategy that desperately wanted to paint Biden as Bernie Sanders’s puppet.
(
In the final debate, Trump seemed nonplussed when Biden disavowed Medicare-for-all and the rest of the far-left agenda. “He’s a very confused guy. He thinks he’s running against somebody else,” Biden said. "He’s running against Joe Biden. I beat all of those other people because I disagreed with them.”)

Republicans are always confusing Socialism with Humanitarianism!
People are not socialists just because they are humanitarians. Socialism is a type of government- does not describe people. A socialist would be a leader of a Socialist state.
The United States is not a socialist state, and no one in America wants socialism.
Liberals are just better humanitarians than Republicans. That is why we have social programs like Social Security, Medicare, Medicaid, Welfare, Food Stamps, and Obamacare. The Republicans would end all of these social programs overnight if it were left up to them. REPUBLICANS DON'T GIVE A FLYING FUCK ABOUT ANYONE BUT THEIR SELFISH SELVES. Republicans attitudes towards the sick, poor and unfortunate is to let them eat shit AND DIE!
Liberals believe in giving the poor and unfortunate a hand up.
The real problem for social programs in AMERICA is they are out-of-control with FRAUD! And I am not just talking about those on the receiving end either. Insurance companies and Hospitals abuse the system as much as those who abuse the use of food stamps and welfare as they bilk Medicare till the money is all gone. Hospitals bilk everyone. THE ENTIRE MEDICAL INDUSTRY IS SET UP TO BANKRUPT EVERYONE ELSE AND HAS JUST ABOUT PRICED THE MIDDLE AND LOWER CLASS OUT OF THE MARKET.
Republicans don't like Minorities to use Food Stamps or Welfare- HOWEVER THEY ARE JUST FINE WITH THE BILLIONS OF DOLLARS OF CORPORATE WELFARE HANDED OUT EVERY YEAR. AND BECAUSE ALL THE COUNTRY BUMPKINS VOTE REPUBLICAN, is because THE COUNTRY BUMPKINS ARE DRUNK ON THE FARM BILL HANDOUTS that the REPUBLICANS ARE USING FOR THEIR OWN POLITICAL ADVANTAGE.
SO BASICALLY YOU CAN SEE THAT THE REPUBLICANS ARE THE PROBLEM.
They say, "Don't look over here at the Farm Bill scam- Don't look over here at all the Corporate Welfare-- Just look over yonder at all these minorities on welfare and using food stamps"! ANd to be perfectly honest, more WHITEY WHITES ARE THE MAIN RECIPIENTS OF BOTH WELFARE AND FOOD STAMPS! Have you ever been to KENTUCKY, OHIO, and WEST VIRGINIA?
The Republicans are hateful selfish idiots and hypocrites! What else can I say?
