Bernie is basically a communist. His policies may not seem explicitly communist, but that is because they are coming from a modern American perspective. His worldview is clearly defined solely on class struggle, there are virtually no areas in which Bernie believes the private sector, even a regulated one, is more appropriate than government, and he makes no distinction between consumer spending and government spending. There comes a point at which you're splitting hairs between socialism and communism.

Bernie would not govern as a communist if elected, but he very much could change his party, as Trump has turned the GOP into a cruel, goosestepping cult, in a way that opens the door for real communists.
