1/Questions abt socialism and Trump: 1) Has any modern US President been so willing to challenge free market orthodoxy? Weaken global free trade system? Intervene vs American companies? Act in such a fiscally reckless manner?
2/Second q: are Trump and Rs really condemning Maduro for his attack on democracy, authoritarianism? What abt Trump's embrace of mass murderers, sadists, dictators? His attacks on free press, independent judiciary, leg branch; his corruption, nepotism, disregard of dem norms?
3/Isn't it true that Trump is more like Maduro than any other figure in the West? Disregard for free market orthodoxy, picking corp winners/losers, attacks on democratic institutions here in the US, alignment w/anti-American global forces?
4/Trump is the most ideological extreme figure in modern US history, and perhaps all of our history; he is already doing much of what he/GOP allege Maduro/socialists want to do. Trump and the Rs are the ones making the US Venezuela. GOP argument sophomoric, ahistorical, stupid.
