Kamala Harris’ price-control plan is ‘full Communist’

Donald Trump on Saturday ripped Vice President Kamala Harris’ plan to slap socialist price controls on groceries, saying she’s gone “full Communist.”

The Republican presidential nominee compared economic proposals to reduce inflation that “Comrade Kamala” announced a day earlier – which includes cracking down on price gouging – to infamously failed communist plans pushed in Venezuela and the former Soviet Union.

“In her speech yesterday, Kamala went full Communist …” Trump told a packed house of supporters at the Mohegan Sun Arena at Casey Plaza in Wilkes-Barre, Pa.

“She wants to destroy our country. After causing catastrophic inflation, Comrade Kamala announced that she wants to institute socialist price controls.”

With food prices surging more than 20% nationwide during the Biden-Harris administration, Harris, during a North Carolina rally on Friday, unveiled economic policies she’d enact during her first 100 days as president.

They include having the Federal Trade Commission enforce a federal ban on price gouging that would slap hefty penalties on companies that set exorbitantly high prices.

“What they are doing is a communist takeover of our country,” Trump said of the Harris proposal.

“Her plan is very dangerous because it may sound good politically … This is Communist; this is Marxist; this is fascist.”

The ex-president also took a few minutes to offer the left-wing Washington Post rare praise for publishing a scathing editorial ripping Harris for claiming price gouging is causing inflation and, rather than offer a legit plan to fix it, offering only “populist gimmicks.”

Trump’s appearance was his seventh this year in the key battleground state where recent polls show a stalemate between him and Harris for Pennsylvania’s 19 electoral votes up for grabs.
