About this audiobook
**A New York Times bestselling audiobook**
This program is read by the author.
For those who witnessed the global collapse of socialism, its resurrection in the twenty-first century comes as a surprise, even a shock. How can socialism work now when it has never worked before?
In this pathbreaking audiobook, bestselling author Dinesh D’Souza argues that the socialism advanced today by the likes of Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, Bernie Sanders, Ilhan Omar and Elizabeth Warren is very different from the socialism of Lenin, Mao and Castro. It is “identity socialism,” a marriage between classic socialism and identity politics. America’s typical socialist is not a working-class union man but a Black Lives Matter activist, a transgender militant or a prophet of environmental apocalypse. Today’s socialists claim to model themselves not on Mao’s Great Leap Forward or even Venezuelan socialism but rather on the “socialism that works” in Scandinavian countries like Norway and Sweden.
This is the new face of socialism that D’Souza confronts and decisively refutes with his trademark incisiveness, wit and originality. He shows how socialism abandoned the working class and found new recruits by drawing on the resentments of race, gender and sexual orientation. He reveals how it uses the Venezuelan, not the Scandinavian, formula. D’Souza chillingly documents the full range of lawless, gangster, and authoritarian tendencies that they have adopted.
United States of Socialism is an informative, provocative and thrilling exposé not merely of the ideas but also the tactics of the socialist Left. In making the moral case for entrepreneurs and the free market, the author portrays President Trump as the exemplar of capitalism and also the most effective political leader of the battle against socialism. He shows how we can help Trump defeat the socialist menace.

- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5Awesome! As usual, Dinesh delivers a powerful blow to the left and exposes their deceit. We are in a battle against marxists and authoritarians who never quit in their quest to consolidate power, even at the expense of those they purport to be fighting for. God bless Dinesh and those like him! Keep fighting.

- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5There are so many things I L♡VE about Dinesh D'Souza, I don't have the white•space to list them all & frankly, my fawning over him would bore you. This book, by Diego Desosa (you have to listen to the book for this to make sense) is poignant, funny & full of outstanding information. I highly recommend this to everyone, regardless of your Political leanings. Thank you, Dinesh, for sharing so much of yourself in this thought•provoking book! Most excellent!!

- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5A great book filled with facts about the sad state and underhanded tactics of the Left, how they seek to divide the populace and keep them dependent. Examples of how this fails in real life and causes immense suffering for all but the ruling elites. I don’t agree that the Republicans are some saviors. I see them as the same as the Democrats, all trying to get rich off the State and the people.
