Outgoing Sen. Al Franken (D-Minn.) took a parting shot at President Trump and the rhetoric of the GOP on Wednesday as he delivered his final speech from the Senate floor.
Franken ran through a litany of policies — including the newly passed tax bill, ObamaCare and climate change — where he said the Trump administration’s positions are at odds with what’s best for most Americans.
“The values being advanced by the president and his allies in Congress simply don’t represent my belief that our economy, our democracy and our country works best when they work for everyone,” Franken said.
The GOP agenda, he said, is about “consolidating political [and] economic power in the hands of corporations and the very wealthy.”
