The New Show Trials Coming in 1, 2, 3...

 Monica Showalter tells us, at the American Thinker yesterday that Robert Reich Vows Purges And Show Trials Of Conservatives If Biden Is Elected Reich, you will remember, is the former of Secretary of Labor in the Clinton administration. He is the very definition of establishment Democrat. She asks if this is what the average Democrat voter wants? Then she notes:

Well, it's what certain influential Democrats want, full blown show-trials and purges, same as the communists pioneered. Seems that equality and redistribution, don't really motivate them in the promises of socialism -- purges, show trials, Gulags and re-education camps are what get them going.
And it makes sense. Socialism has failed everywhere it's ever been tried, every time, every place, every place it's ever been practiced, people are poorer, unfreerer and less advanced than in places with capitalism. They've got a 100% record on failure for that. But where they don't have a record of failure is on a reign of terror, where neighbor spies on neighbor for a secret police, thought crimes are punished, mass imprisonment and re-education camps are a way of life, show trials appear where groveling people stand before people's commissars and profess to love what they hate and hate what they love, and the yin and yang of violence to reinforce lies and lies to cover up violence. There are also party purges to keep everyone in a state of fear.
Look, I realize that conservatives and Democrat voters may have differences in policy prescriptions. But do you, Democrat voter, want to see your friends and neighbors rounded up and put on public show trials, followed of course by execution? This has never happened in the United States. it means that people will be killed simply for thinking differently.
This ought to be a campaign issue. Democrats are plotting the worst for their GOP rivals in a bid to control all ideas, all thoughts, every straying question. As Sen. Lindsey Graham once said: "Boy y'all want power, god I hope you never get it."
