Socialism is only a symptom. Republicans can’t risk ignoring the real problem




Fox News  
And any political movement that ignores that reality does so at its own peril.

"The left isn’t embracing socialism. It’s rejecting the status quo.
"The political world woke up after Tuesday’s election asking the same question: Is the Democratic Party lurching toward socialism?
"Maybe.

But that’s not the question that matters.

"The question that matters is this: Why are more voters willing to give socialism a look in the first place?

"Because if Republicans answer that question incorrectly, they risk making precisely the same mistake Democrats made in 2016." . .  .

"When opportunity expands, faith in markets follows.

"But when opportunity fades, socialism begins to sound less like a warning — and more like a solution."
