Smerconish: Trump’s Midterm Message Is Not the Price of Eggs, Gas, or Housing — It’s Communism

TRANSCRIPT:

SMERCONISH: "Meanwhile, President Trump, salivating, thinks he's found his midterm message. And it's not the price of eggs or gas or housing, it's communism. At Mount Rushmore, on the eve of the nation's 250th birthday, he warned of a resurgence of the communist menace. He called Democrats hardcore godless communists and said, 'You can be a communist or you can be a patriot, but you can't be both.' He's not naming names, but he doesn't have to. He wants the whole lot of them tied to that one word. Now, is Democratic socialism the same of communism? Of course not. But that's the fight that Trump want, and Democrats are handing him the ammunition."
