Trump Campaign Analogizes Trump as Socialist Public Works Project...

...holding back socialism.

I was just served this ad on CF. Here is the MAGA Committee presenting Trump as the Glen Canyon Dam, holding back the forces of socialism like those that, in the 1950's and 60's, built the Glen Canyon Dam.

Oh, see that's not the bad kind of socialism. The bad kind of socialism is the kind that thinks racism is bad, that being poor shouldn't be a reason to die without medical care, and that human beings have innate importance. The good kind of socialism is the socialism that we don't call socialism, and which also helps the rich stay richer.

Welfare for the ultra-wealthy is good welfare.
Welfare for the people who need it is bad welfare.

You can tell the difference between being rich and powerful = good, and being poor and having no power = bad.

Just like Jesus said in that one book that only exists in Republican Bibles. At least I assume, because my evil liberal Bible only contains the traditional four Gospels of the Christian Church, and I can't find anything like this in my Bible. So I assume Republicans have some other gospel they read from.

A friend of mine just pointed out that the entire purpose of that dam is to let water through, so Trump is apparently harnessing the power of socialism to benefit society.
