President Donald Trump remarked on the Democratic Party’s shift toward communism and attacked Sen. Jon Ossoff in a speech in Georgia on Wednesday.

PRESIDENT DONALD TRUMP: Remember, during the State of the Union, I said that this country will never be a socialist country. Remember? And I was right. They skipped socialism. They went right to communism. Georgia is a state that believes in common sense. And yet, your terrible Senator, John Ossoff, he’s terrible. And the Democrats in Congress are voting with the communists every single time. They’re afraid of the communists. You look at it. Now, I was – I fought Ossoff before, as you know, and we won. We had a great success against this guy. He reminds me of Pinky [editor’s note: Pee-wee] Herman. Do you ever see Pinky Herman? John Ossoff and the congressional Democrats voted against securing our border. They voted against our massive tax cuts that you have. They voted against the Trump accounts for your children. They want to raise your taxes by a lot, not lower them. We lowered your taxes. We gave you the greatest tax cut in the history of our country twice now. And – and they want to raise your taxes substantially. You know, it’s – I’ve been watching politics. I’ve been involved in politics on the other side, you know, for a long time. I’ve always found it interesting, fascinating, important. But I’ve never seen people say – ever. It’s always politicians. I’ve watched great politicians. We will lower your taxes. But they will always say, We will low- – even if they didn’t mean it. They’d say, We will lower your taxes. These people say, We’re going to raise your taxes. I’ve never heard it before. It’s a new phenomena. It’s a phenomenae. They voted against no tax on tips. They voted against no tax on overtime. They voted against no tax on Social Security for the seniors. They voted against voter ID. Can you believe that? Well, you saw what happened. They caught thousands of votes in New Jersey, where illegal aliens were allowed to vote. Thousands and thousands of votes. They voted in favor of the transgender mutilization of your children and in favor of – in favor of men playing in women’s sports. Isn’t that lovely? They voted against lower energy prices, lower car prices, and bigger paychecks for everyone. They voted against every one of these things. John Ossoff and the Democrat communists want to let the Marxists into power, bankrupt your families, and leave you totally undefended with wide-open borders. But we will not let that happen to our country. We’re not going to let it happen.
