It's really hard for American Democrats to condemn the horrors of socialism

The House passed a largely symbolic resolution on Thursday that denounces the "horrors of socialism."

The resolution, sponsored by Cuban-American Republican Rep. Maria Elvira Salazar of Florida.

Most Democrats joined every House Republican in voting for it.

But 86 Democrats voted against it.
