Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer was caught off guard when asked about the Democratic Socialists of America’s plans to abolish the Senate on Wednesday. 

Instead of answering the question, Schumer ignored it and claimed that the party is united in “working to defeat Trump.”

Earlier this week, Fox’s Shannon Bream went through the DSA’s Workers Deserve More Platform with Megan Romer, National Co-chair of the Democratic Socialists of America.

“Just give me sort of a true or false on these,” Bream said before listing the radical policies, including abolishing the Senate, replacing the President and Supreme Court with Congressionally appointed leaders, abolishing ICE, abolishing borders and granting mass amnesty, defunding the Pentagon, abolishing prisons, and government ownership of business.

Romer confirmed all of the policies are part of their plan.

During a press conference on Wednesday, a reporter noted that the DSA’s new platform calls for abolishing the Senate and attempted to ask Schumer whether their views are replacing the Democratic Party’s positions.

But before the reporter could even finish, Schumer smiled awkwardly as he cut her off.

“Look, the bottom line is Democrats from one end of the spectrum to the other are going to be working to defeat Trump, to bring down costs, to go after his corruption, and to end the chaos,” Schumer said.

Notably, he did not deny the DSA’s growing influence over the party.
