It's not the Democrats or Socialism...

...that will come for your Military benefits and healthcare.
That would be the Republicans and Capitalism.

I told this to my daughter who is married to a retired military teabag. He tried to indoctrinate her on the evils of socialism.

And how everything will go to hell in a hand basket... bragging about their Doomsday Preparations ... and describing the "future" as something out of a Mad Max movie...

Turns out they were So wrong but so right....

They will get to live out their Dystopian dreams but not at the hands of the "commie" or "socialist" left...

It will be at the hands of those they thought to be their own ...

and not due to the elimination of 2nd amendment rights...

But due to NRA & KGOP eliminating all individual rights (except for 2nd amendment) so they can stay in bed with Russia .....
