Sen. Mark Warner speaking on CNBC this morning:
“I think we’re seeing this President…Trump leave in many ways the way he came in. I remember sitting four years when he gave one of the darkest inauguration speeches in American history. I was sitting with John McCain and he was astonished at the tone of his speech – mean-spirited, no willingness to reach out. That really was the hallmark of Donald Trump’s four years, and now we’re leaving with 400,000 Americans dead…in this last day, leaving with pardoning a lot of his cronies…he did away with the ‘drain the swamp’ executive order he put in place so that his staff…can immediately go out and become lobbyists…”
