Marc Short: Trump’s $5K Checks Proposal Is Making It Harder for GOP to Make the Distinction Between Us and Socialists

EXCERPT:

SHORT: “I guess my bigger concern is it's harder and harder, I think, for us to draw a sharp contrast with what we're saying is the far left Democrat socialists on economic issues. Because it's not just the promise of $5,000 checks that aren't paid for. It's been price controls on drugs. It's been telling the government telling you how much you can have on a credit card fee. It's state owned enterprises at record numbers that Bernie Sanders, Elizabeth Warren applaud. And so it's like the policies is harder for us to make the distinction that I think we should be making.”
