During a recent interview with journalist Dasha Burns, Florida Democrat Angie Nixon was asked if she is a socialist. She answered that she didn’t know.
This was right after Dasha Burns confirmed that Nixon is a member of the DSA – the Democratic Socialists of America.
She seems to think that socialism is just social programs and helping people.
FOX News has details:
Florida Democratic Senate nominee Angie Nixon struggled to identify whether she was a capitalist or socialist during an interview Friday, drawing sharp criticism from Republican Sen. Ashley Moody’s campaign as the candidates entered the final week of Florida’s Senate race.
Politico’s Dasha Burns confronted the nominee over her membership in the Democratic Socialists of America (DSA), noting that she had previously identified herself as a capitalist despite joining the socialist organization. When Burns pressed Nixon to explain how she personally identified, the Jacksonville Democrat repeatedly expressed uncertainty.
“I don’t know. I don’t know. Like, I don’t know,” Nixon said on “The Conversation.”
“I identify as Angie Nixon, as a Black woman who was a former single mom, who wants to make sure that no one has to struggle the way I struggled when I was a single mom.”
Cameron Gambini, a spokesperson for Moody, criticized Nixon’s response in a statement to Fox News Digital, questioning her ideological commitments and referencing a separate controversy surrounding her recent comments about Cuba.
“Angie Nixon voluntarily signed up to be a member of the Democrat Socialists,” he said. “Now, she’s clearly regretting letting her true colors shine. And just yesterday, she refused to say Cuba was a dictatorship. Socialist Angie is a radical lunatic who will never step foot on the Senate floor. Case closed.”
