NEWYou can now listen to Fox News articles!

Sen. John Fetterman, D-Pa., sounded off on “lefties” in his own party who are warming to socialism or communism, recounting a past discussion with people who lived under communist rule in the 20th century.

Asked about a new Gallup poll showing 66% of Democrats view socialism favorably while only 42% view capitalism favorably, Fetterman said it is an important question to raise.

“I literally was in a former communist nation. And I asked that — I said, ‘Some people in my party, some of the lefties are talking about socialism now. What do you think?’”

“He’s like, ‘that’s the worst thing ever – you’re going to need a reality check if you ever adopt any of those things. You know, like — you are morons.”

IT’S NOT JUST DEMOCRATS. SOCIALIST MAMDANI’
