What we saw under the Trump administration were these enormous tax cuts for the richest corporations on earth that ultimately hurt everyday people. What we saw Under Governor Abbott and how he responded to the winter storm was people suffering and dying and then also our utility bills going up while some of these big corporations made money on that storm. And so what we need to do is talk about those economic issues as Democrats where we're good on civil rights issues. I think a lot of folks know that. (08:17–08:28)
