Trump and the communist ‘specter’ in Congress, the tycoon’s red alert

“No people who are running it are communists and this country will not have communists“he said again referring to yesterday’s victory in the New York Democratic primaries of congressional candidates supported by Zohran Mamdanithe socialist mayor of the metropolis. In a post published a few hours earlier on Truth Social, Trump had complained about the “big universal applause from the fake news media” for “Mayor Mamdani trotting out three solid communists,” while “not saying a word” about the 16 Trumpian candidates who were elected.

The surprise move by Trumpwhich blocked the law that the Republicans are counting on to present themselves in the November elections with results against the cost of living, is provoking shocked reactions from several GOP representatives, who speak of an “inexplicable” move that “doesn’t make sense” at a time when voters appear much more worried about the cost of living than about alleged electoral fraud. Republicans, however, point out that Trump only canceled the signing ceremony without threatening to veto, in the absence of which the measure, which received great bipartisan support, will in any case become law after 10 days.
