We're facing Something that never seen before, certainly not in my lifetime. Real opponents of democracy have won elections and they're attacking every level of our government. We've watched President Trump propose deep cuts to Medicaid to fund tax breaks for the ultra wealthy. And I'm supportive of half of the tax breaks that go to working people, but over half of it goes to people, in many cases are so wealthy they don't even need it. (05:36–05:44)
