Well, her VP pick is a communist sympathizer.

As an immigrant from Soviet Russia, Harris’ nomination is giving me flashbacks to the totalitarian country I left behind.

Back in the USSR, we had no real elections — and ordinary people had no real say in who would govern “Mother Russia.”

State rulers would appear out of nowhere and geriatric General secretaries — such as Nikita Khrushchev or Leonid Brezhnev — simply hand picked their successors.

There were no election campaigns, no party platforms, and no debates.
