Why Right Wing 'Communist' Name-Calling Won't Work
Narrative Analysis: Name Calling
This past week, after Democratic socialists swept a slate of primaries in New York City, Republicans launched a rerun of one of their most well-worn lines of attack: communism. President Donald Trump turned to Truth Social to insist that “many Communists running in badly failing Blue States” and that “America the Beautiful will NEVER be a Communist Country!!!” No one running in the New York elections ran as a communist. They ran as progressives, largely opposed to the disastrous policies put in place by Republicans, like an abusive anti-immigrant regime, social safety net cuts, and tax cuts for the wealthy. The attack was boringly familiar to anyone who’s paid attention to U.S. politics for the last 60-plus years. Conveniently for the right, whoever is in charge of the Democratic Party or is an influential voice within the party is one of the Four Horsemen of communism or socialism. In the 2024 election cycle, Trump alleged that former Vice President Kamala Harris—and by extension, former President Joe Biden—was a Marxist. This would have been news to anyone living on planet Earth during her time in office, because not a thing that she or Biden did could even remotely be considered communist in nature.read more

Trump warns of rising communist threat after socialist primary wins in New York
Fox News contributor Paul Mauro reacts to US President Donald Trump’s warning of a rising communist threat following major socialist primary wins in New York. “The idea that communism would not only return in some form here domestically but be so attractive to young people who really don’t seem to understand the history of it is really disconcerting,” Mr Mauro told Sky News host Danica De Giorgio. “This distinction that’s often drawn between the Democratic socialists and communists is an artificial one. If you listen to what they’re saying, they are communists. “I do think he [Donald Trump] is right to call attention to it … because at the end of the day, history shows it just doesn’t work.”

Trump, 80, Begs Dem Nemesis to Call Him in Midnight Rant
Drew Angerer / Getty ImagesPresident Donald Trump is begging one of his top Democratic Party nemeses to give him a call about gun violence. The plea landed in a Monday night Truth Social post after a bloody Juneteenth weekend in Chicago, where police counted no fewer than seven dead and 38 wounded. The toll included a Friday drive-by in the Princeton Park area, where two gunmen shot from a moving car and struck more than a dozen people. Trump, 80, put the count at 39 hurt and four killed in his post, and vowed he could halt the carnage “FAST and Permanently.” He demanded the governor “CALL ME!” It marked his second jab at the governor in 48 hours, after a Sunday post asked why Pritzker wasn’t reaching out for help.Read more at The Daily Beast.
