Socialism surges among Democrats as party leaders reject DSA agenda: ‘Pack of fools’

The top Democrat in the House is making it clear that he doesn't support the Democratic Socialists of America's (DSA) agenda.

But even though House Democratic Leader Rep. Hakeem Jeffries of New York doesn't back the DSA's far-left policy proposals, a majority of Democrats hold favorable views of socialism, according to two national polls released in recent weeks.

That's not the case for most Americans, and especially Republicans, who hold negative views of socialism, according to the surveys.
