which shows Sanders is a hell of allot more dangerous if he ever became president then Trump ever could be Sanders would have put us on the same road as Venezuela
I like quotes.
"Our concern must be for a special interest group that has been too long neglected. It knows no sectional boundaries or ethnic and racial divisions, and it crosses political party lines. It is made up of men and women who raise our food, patrol our streets, man our mines and factories, teach our children, keep our homes, and heal us when we're sick—professionals, industrialists, shopkeepers, clerks, cabbies, and truck drivers. They are, in short, "We the people," this breed called Americans.""
There's another appeal to class warfare, to uplift the working class.
"We’re going to close the unproductive tax loopholes that allow some of the truly wealthy to avoid paying their fair share. In theory, some of those loopholes were understandable, but in practice they sometimes made it possible for millionaires to pay nothing, while a bus driver was paying ten percent of his salary, and that’s crazy.
There's another, fully supporting the idea that the wealthy aren't taxed nearly enough.
Now, who said these things? Some "crazy socialist" like Bernie Sanders? Nope.
Ronald Reagan.
By your own argument, Reagan's as "dangerous" and "socialist" as Chavez. Or maybe you're being completely ridiculous.
