Socialism is what they called public power.

Socialism is what they called social security. 
 
Socialism is what they called the growth of free and independent labor organizations.
 
Socialism is their name for almost anything that helps all the people.

Any news organization that covered that speech and didn't mention that he is clearly suffering from dementia & often incoherently rambling has abdicated their responsibility to truth in reportage. This abdication and failure, pretending he & his cult are normal, is a large part of how we got here.

Since 1945, American Universities have been envied worldwide for their Government-funded research.

Hard to justify via corporate R&D, frontier science is vital to our long-term health, wealth, & security. To withhold University funding is to amputate the engines that Make America Great.

Imagine if you will. A regime so dedicated to angry white men, that it can't properly acknowledge, affirm, and respect our fellow citizens who gave their lives for their country.
What an absolute travesty to everyone who's ever worn a uniform and offered their country a blank check for their life.
