    Beria: "All is secure, Comrade Stalin. You control an empire that runs from central Europe to the tip of Alaska. Hundreds of millions fear your name." Stalin: "It's not enough." Beria: "Why?" Stalin: "They still have hamburgers."https://twitter.com/daveweigel/status/1101132177847316481 …

    Sebastian Gorka says CPAC attendees are on "the front lines against communism" and that socialism has gripped the Democrats. "They want to take your pick-up truck. They want to take away your hamburger. This is what Stalin dreamt about but never achieved."

        You can kill people. You can erase their names from history. But hamburgers never die.

        Little-known fact, the original lend-lease act sent pickup trucks instead of Jeeps but Stalin sent them back due to socialism

        Dialogue they cut from "Death of Stalin" - which had my vote for funniest movie of the year- and most prophetic of our current administration.

        I don't know about taking them away, but fewer pickups and burgers wouldn't be a bad thing.
