Socialist Utopia


Socialist Utopia

Senator Tim Scott gave a speech at the Republican National Convention.

Here’s what he said at 9 minutes and 45 seconds.

“Make no mistake. Joe Biden and Kamala Harris want a cultural revolution. A fundamentally different America. If we elect them they will turn our country into a socialist utopia.”

I’m not sure he understands the meaning of that word.

Here’s what Merriam Webster has to say about Utopia:  “a place of ideal perfection especially in laws, government, and social conditions.”

The horror!

How about Socialism:  “Any of various theories or systems of social organization in which the means of producing and distributing goods is owned collectively or by a centralized government that often plans and controls the economy.”

Now Senator Scott goes on to say that if that path is followed history has shown us that it will only lead to pain and misery. The pain and misery of “a place of ideal perfection especially in laws, government, and social conditions.”

Unlike the pain, misery and chaos that the nation has endured under the Chosen One President Trump.

All the chaos, division, economic collapse, bankruptcies, unemployment, violence, protests and 185,000 deaths and counting from an out of control pandemic has happened on President Trump’s watch. That’s right. The man that says he accepts no responsibility was in charge. He is in charge. All this mayhem that Trump constantly complains about only demonstrates his complete and utter lack of leadership as well as humanity. A President whose idea of leadership is to lie about the reality that we are living in. A President that watches TV for hours every day, tweets, golfs, name calls, insults, lies, alienates our allies, rules by Executive Orders and works with the Russians to get reelected says that he is the only one, that he alone can fix the mess that he has made of this nation.

Trump’s sister, Maryanne Trump Barry, perhaps said it best.

“He has no principles. None.

You can’t trust him.

Donald is out for Donald, period.”
