Muscatine

Oh, given recent events and the direction of this administration, I'd say he's very serious.

As a good little commie, Malodery, knows that one of the basic tenants of communism is the abolition of private property rights, including industrial and commercial, and the confiscation of that private property by the central government. (refer: my reference to the soviet and cuban models)      We've already seen evidence of this in the current regime, including GE and others, plus flat out statements about wealth redistribution, etc.  The "you can't be serious" is just an "I didn't do it" whine from the guilty little commie.
