Look at the political positions below. Would you call a person supporting all these positions a socialist?
1. Provide federal assistance to low-income communities;
2. Protect Social Security;
3. Provide asylum for refugees;
4. Extend minimum wage;
5. Improve unemployment benefit system so it covers more people;
6. Strengthen labor laws so workers can more easily join a union;
7. Assure equal pay for equal work regardless of sex.
8. Use federal assistance to ensure as many Americans as possible have health insurance.
Personally, I'd call such a person President Dwight D. Eisenhower (Retired General) (Republican):

Source 2
And it should be noted that he won the Republican nomination and the presidency with the above positions.
FAKE NEWS!
Yes, it's socialist stupidity.
