Republicans Plan To Make 2020 A ‘Referendum’ On Socialism

Freedom hangs in the balance now that the seeds of socialism have been sown with the younger generation…

Republicans could have a winning strategy for next year’s all-important elections as well as a legitimate chance of retaking the House Of Representatives.

With the White House and the fate of the republic hanging in the balance and Democrats calling for the imposition of socialism on the nation, it cannot be overstated that 2020 will be the most critical election in American history.

Driven mad by Trump Derangement Syndrome and transformed into an angry mob led by Bernie Sanders and a 29-year-old bartender, the Democrats have degenerated into the barbarians at the gates and unless they are thoroughly crushed, the future looks bleak.

But despite the media dominance that allows them to promote their dangerous ideology, the party’s ideas are political poison to the vast majority of the country – the areas that are sneered at and mocked by the coastal elitists and their celebrity mouthpieces who would force their views on voters living in areas that they derisively refer to as the “flyover states” who they despise.

However, the vast majority of Americans who live there despise them as well and hate their radicalism even more.

To take advantage of the loathing for the left, Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell has tipped his hand at the GOP’s plans and that is to make the election into a “referendum” on socialism.

Via The Hill, “GOP leader on 2020: We need a ‘referendum on socialism’”:

Majority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-Ky.) on Thursday said he wants to make the 2020 presidential and Senate elections a “referendum on socialism” by pinning down Democrats on proposals like “Medicare for all” and the Green New Deal.

“We need to have a referendum on socialism,” McConnell told a group of reporters when asked for his assessment of next year’s elections, when Senate Republicans will have to defend 22 seats, compared with12 for Democrats.

“I’m going to be arguing, and I’m encouraging my colleagues to argue, that we are the firewall against socialism in this country,” McConnell added.

He said Republicans need to make the case to the American people, “if you’re uncomfortable with things like the Green New Deal and Medicare for none, the best way to avoid that is to have a Republican Senate.”

McConnell predicted that Republicans would have a target-rich environment with at least five Democratic presidential candidates backing Medicare for all legislation and at least six supporting the Green New Deal, Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez’s (D-N.Y.) ambitious plan to curb greenhouse gas emissions.

“We’ve got five credible candidates for president in the Senate signed up for the Green New Deal and Medicare for none. If we can’t make that case, we ought to go into another line of work,” he said.

With a year and a half to go until the elections and the Democrats already proposing such lunacy as the elimination of the private health insurance industry, free college tuition, stealing money from white people to pay out reparations to those who have never been slaves and more, they are only going to get more extreme to energize their rabid base.

But in doing so, Democrats may be on a suicide mission because, despite the illusion of what’s on CNN, MSNBC, the New York Times, Facebook and Twitter, rational Americans and those moderates that are neeed to win nationally are horrified at what they have become.

McConnell is really onto something here and it could pay off big time.
