Honestly I wouldn't be surprised, if America ever does go commie, our Lenin will be some guy who is a total communist, but will also campaign on getting football back on the TV and making sure we got enough meat production so everyone can get back grillin'!!!
this is somewhat unironically the way. the US has succeeded in poisoning the ideological well so deeply that socialism will only take hold when explained in the language of American Civil Religion, with treats as incentives on top.
