Democrat Congresswoman Stephanie Murphy is alarmed by the radical socialist policies being championed by members of her own party. Murphy did not name names, but was clearly referring to newbie Congresswoman Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez.
"I am offended by this whole conversation about socialism," Murphy said, as reported by the Washington Examiner. "The idea that in the greatest democracy -- the greatest capitalist system in the world -- we’re having casual conversation about socialism, offends me."

But this is not the moment to undo the whole system and embrace something that Americans have spent blood and treasure fighting to save other countries from."
