‘Radical left seeks to remake US as a socialist hellscape’: Bessent tears into new gen Dems at RNC
Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent launches a fiery attack on the Democratic Party at the RNC, accusing the radical left of pushing America toward socialism. Bessent warns that Democrats have become the “centre of gravity for a radical party” as progressive and democratic-socialist candidates gain ground. His explosive RNC speech puts socialism, the radical left, Democrats and the 2026 midterm elections at the center of the GOP’s campaign message.
