Pete Buttigieg: ‘It Was All Bull*hit’ that Republicans Are the Party of the Working Class

EXCERPT:

BUTTIGIEG: "Hey, it's Pete. We’re hearing that the House has passed the megabill after it got through the Republican Senate. Now it’s on its way to President Trump’s desk and he’s gonna sign it. When he does, he will create some of the biggest tax breaks for millionaires in history, transferring even more wealth to the wealthiest Americans. And the way they’re paying for it is to cut healthcare for working class Americans, to cut food that would go to veterans in children in this country, to shut down rural hospitals and make an entire generation worse off. And they’re managing to increase the national debt and deficit while they do it. This is the decisive once-and-for-all answer to what this president and his party or about. You know, it was fashionable for Washington commentators for a while to say that this was a new, different, populist working class Republican Party. Now it has been demonstrated decisively that that was all bullsh*t, that they’re still all about making the wealthy even wealthier at the expense of working Americans.”
