If they were and are the enemy, then the political party would be banned and you wouldn't be able to vote for them, now would you?
You could vote for Communists up until 1984, so it was LEGAL to be a Communist. So it's LEGAL to vote for them.
So, you have a problem with someone legally voting for a legal party in a US election. Fun.
I have a problem with a CIA agent and then CIA director BEING and VOTING communist yes..we were at the height of the cold war with a COMMUNIST empire! There were PLENTY of other people to vote for that year and he picks communist just because? Bullshit. You can't DESPISE the system of the country you are voting for and still do a legit job....that Obama even nominated this piece of shit for director AND he was voted in is astounding...well the fact he was voted in is astounding the fact a known communist like Obama nominated him isn't.
Fine, you have a problem with it.
Perhaps I have a problem with a CIA agent voting for Trump.
So what?
"Communist empire"? What Communist empire? The USSR was the USSR. Just because you're a Communist doesn't mean you support the USSR. You might, you might not.
It's like saying that you're a capitalist, therefore you support every capitalist country, therefore if the US goes to war with a capitalist country, you're supporting that country.
