Sen. Murphy: Trump Is Using the W.H. To Enrich Himself and His Friends

EXCERPT:

MURPHY: "Well, listen, absolutely. This is a president who is using the White House in order to enrich himself and his friends. He’s got the same set of economic policies of Republicans before him, trickle down tax cuts that don’t end up benefitting the vast majority of the country. We’ve got to be a party of economic growth, but economic growth for everybody. We’ve got to be a party of inclusion. A party that support a country that includes everyone. I’m supportive of the new democratic platform, but I think the most important thing for our party is that we focus on an economic message. That’s what people want to hear from us. It has not been our focus over the course of the last ten years, and so if this new platform convinces Democrats to spend time talking about big economic ideas that deliver for the middle of this country, then I think it’s going to give us a really important contrasting message with this president."
