I'd Love to Run Against 'The Communist'

'I'd also love to run against the communist'

'I never thought we'd see the day in our country, when a communist – because that's really, you think about it – when a communist is the leading Democrat!'

Tampa Bay Rally, February 23, 2016

If I were to vote in a presidential
primary today, I would vote for: Undecided
