“Having an $18 billion surplus in the state and not giving a single penny back to the working class citizens is communism. And that's who Waltz is.”
Classifies a state budget decision as 'communism' — a maximally charged political label — where a more neutral description of fiscal policy exists.
“Having an $18 billion surplus in the state and not giving a single penny back to the working class citizens is communism. And that's who Waltz is. And that's what this ticket is going to be. They're going to take your money and they won't give a single penny back, even when they're ahead.”
Links working-class identity to the claim that the opposing candidate is a communist who will plunder their money, binding class belonging to acceptance of the political characterization.
“the warfare, welfare, Coalition where the warmongers in the Republican Party don't want to touch the defense budget and the welfare mongers in the Democrat Party do not want to touch the kind of social services budget”
Frames both parties through maximally one-sided lenses ('warmongers' for Republicans, 'welfare mongers' for Democrats) to direct interpretation toward a deadlocked-stupidity conclusion while omitting any alternative framing of the political dynamics.
