The Democrats should start calling Trump a socialist. Every fucking day.

Welfare for the rich, welfare for farmers, that's socialism. They should start attacking Trump on what he is doing with the economy. Tax payer hand outs, rising debt , rising inflation. Attack everything that's wrong with the economy.

They can't let Trump tell the American people how great the economy is and not respond. That's what he is going to run on. The Democrats need to label him everyday. Attack, Attack, Attack.

Call him the welfare president.

But if it's just to slander him then grand.

But why not just call him a Nazi or something in that case?

It's best to just point out that the aspiring nazis are idiots and that no serious Democrat is calling for central control of the means of production. Just quickly dismiss their ignorant propaganda and then talk issues.
