If you were curious about how long it would take for journalists to start rushing to the aid and defense of the Democratic Socialists (communists) who just won elections in New York City, wonder no more. Your answer is here.
Kaitlan Collins of CNN is already out there insisting that Democratic Socialism is not communism. And she is saying it in response to Trump, because that’s all Kaitlan Collins does, is try to prove she is smart and Trump is not.
You know more of this is coming, right? The media is going to bend over backwards to tell you how harmless and genuine these people are. They will defend them from criticism and insist everyone has got them all wrong.

Kaitlan Collins pushes back on Trump rhetoric: Democratic socialism ‘is not communism’
CNN’s chief White House correspondent Kaitlan Collins pushed back on President Donald Trump’s rhetoric about the rise of democratic socialism in the U.S., which Trump has incorrectly conflated with communism, following several victories from progressive House candidates in New York primaries.
During “The Source with Kaitlan Collins” on Friday, the CNN anchor aired remarks Trump made earlier that day at the annual Faith & Freedom Coalition Conference, where he described democratic socialists as “hardcore Godless communists” and “the most serious threat to our country since its existence.”
Collins challenged the president’s “border apocalyptic” comments that America could become a communist nation.
“While Democrats themselves have been wrestling with what Tuesday night means for the direction of their party, socialism, much less democratic socialism, is not communism,” she said.
She is referring to the string of Democratic primary victories in New York on Tuesday from democratic socialists backed by New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani (D).
Collins is wrong and everyone knows it.
It is. She can push back all she wants, she is wrong. It is most definitely communism.

Of course she didn’t explain how they are different and no reporter asked

The stated goals of the DSA are most certainly communist. Mamdani himself has spoken of seizing the means of production.
Like other people in the media, Kaitlan Collins is just a useful idiot for the radical left.
