In case you missed it, the recent Democratic debates confirmed that the Democratic Party is now officially the socialist Democratic Party … period.

The old Democratic Party, which used to stand for the working class and families, is gone. The new socialist Democrats represent elitists and government. They believe they can capture control by promising free everything, from health care to college education. And we all know what happens with things that are “free.” They soon become worthless.

But not only do the new socialists believe everything should be free to Americans, they believe everything should be free to the entire world, courtesy of the U.S. taxpayer. Open the borders, let everyone in, and give them everything they want … tax the rich, tax the companies, no problem.

Some of these Democrats want to call themselves Democratic socialists, but socialism is socialism, no matter what you call it, and it will ultimately become the National Socialist Party. Remember the National Socialist German Workers’ Party — the Nazis?

Political suicide is a good description for what we saw on those stages. I say good riddance.
