Trump accuses Biden of being a 'socialist' moments into presidential debate

Donald Trump has accused Joe Biden of being a “socialist" just moments into the first presidential debate.
“Your party wants to go Socialist... and they're going to dominate you, Joe. You know that,” said Mr Trump.
Mr Biden snapped back: “The party is me, right now. I am the Democratic Party.”

When they call anything that’s not Trumpism “socialism”, it’s like when your grandparents call any game console a “Nintendo” .

Socialism means society first, we're talking about main street instead of wall street. Trump is against socialism because the wealthy wants power in their own hands.

Socialism means basically when the people owns everything. You mean like city services, highway services or governmental protections from threats and etc.. There is no pure capitalistic system. So, when you say socialism, I smirk a little at the narrowness of your definition. Oh, you only mean when the government gives to the poor.

Some people say trump yaps too much and Biden can’t answer questions... tbh tho, how does anyone hold their thoughts and convey what they wanna say in that situation. Biden can be slow in his answers, it’s clear he is thinking by the expression on his face. But trump keeps making these smart ass comments lol I wouldn’t be able to remember what I’m even suppose to be answering.
