Yeah we should ask Costa Rica, Korea, China, Burma/Myanmar, Guatemala (not a communist, but wanted land reforms), Iraq, Vietnam, Cuba, Cambodia, Laos, Iraq again: The Empire Strikes (with) Ba’ath, Brazil (not even a communist again, just wanted trade with China and land reforms) Cambodia again. Bolivia, Chile, Angola, Poland (don’t forget), Nicaragua, Grenada, Iraq again: A New Gulf, Haiti (not even a communist again), Iraq again, Haiti again to undo the last one, Yugoslavia, Venezuela, Iraq again (Mission Accomplished), Haiti again to undo the undoing, Honduras (kinda? only person on the planet to become more leftist after being elected), Bolivia, Venezuela, Venezuela, Venezuela.
