Republican leaders are seizing upon recent television comments made by Democratic Socialists of America co-chair Megan Romer, who defended her organisation's push to abolish the United States Senate and Immigration and Customs Enforcement, in a bid to brand the wider Democratic Party as extremists ahead of the upcoming midterms.
Romer recently went on air to defend her organisation's new campaign to abolish the Senate, while the group's wider written manifesto also outlines plans to dismantle immigration enforcement.
