      I am not, by nature, a leftwing true believer. But I don't understand the case for Democratic moderation in 2020 when Trump will call everything "socialism" and say that Republicans will be sent to the Gulag for having plastic straws.

      Buttigieg on Republicans using the term 'socialism': "Literally anything we do they're going to call socialist ... so let's not worry about what they're calling it, let's worry if it's a good idea ... Call it whatever you like, but let's get it done if it's a good idea." Via ABC pic.twitter.com/7s7W0l2ABo

          Beto is right. The Democrats who think they are going to get points from the NRA for shying away from bold policies are living in past that may never have existed. https://twitter.com/sahilkapur/status/1172617787476459522 …

          Replying to @AubreyGilleran @baseballcrank

          The irony here is Dan isn't at all against socialism when the beneficiaries are corporations and the donor class. It's just when government policies help the working poor that he lashes out in rage over. Days of Cons getting to skate by on their hypocritical BS need to end.

          He's saying let's stop worrying about labels, and, instead, let's make the arguments for the policies we think are right. Seems pretty reasonable to me.

          Dan it was a wild ride but like most conservative pundits you’ve lost your mind. Will need a replacement conservative follow for the feed, anyone in the comments have recommendations?

          Not what they're saying, but ok. It's more "we're being called socialists regardless of what our actual policies are". I'm not sure how you're reading it to get to your comment, could you elaborate?

          I wonder if they have any awareness that becoming what your opponents will claim you are is how Republicans came to accept someone like Trump. Maybe just state what you actually believe?
