This Marxist boogie man is always so bizarre to hear. There are literally 0 Marxists in Congress. There has never been a Marxist President or Supreme Court Justice. There has never been a Marxist Governor. Right now, there are only about a dozen Marxists combined in state and local governments in the country.
We gotta pump those numbers up. Those are rookie numbers in this racket.
That's because you aren't counting all of the super duper extra-secret Marxists!
Which, by the way, I'd never heard about until Obama was elected. Weird coincidence, I am sure there is nothing correlated to a certain unique attribute of that President compared to everyone that came before him. No need to look into it further.
Can we count Lincoln as a Marxist?
