Dem Senator Chris Murphy on CNN: Trump Will End America As We Know It [WATCH]

Senator Chris Murphy Sounds the Alarm: “Trump Is Dismantling Democracy for Billionaire Gains”

In a fiery appearance on CNN’s Anderson Cooper 360 Tuesday night, Senator Chris Murphy (D-CT) unleashed a scathing critique of former President Donald Trump, accusing him of systematically eroding American democracy for the benefit of his ultra-wealthy inner circle.

Murphy didn’t mince words. “Donald Trump is actively trying to destroy our democracy,” he declared. “This isn’t about politics anymore—he wants to hand the reins of government to his billionaire friends while the rest of us foot the bill.”

The Connecticut senator painted a picture of a country on the brink, with Trump attempting to reshape the United States into a “kleptocratic oligarchy,” where power is hoarded and the rule of law is gutted. “He and his Mar-a-Lago buddies are trying to rob the country blind,” Murphy warned.

Turning to the 2024 election, Murphy defended Vice President Kamala Harris and her emphasis on democracy, pushing back against critics who questioned the effectiveness of that strategy. “People mocked Kamala for focusing on protecting democracy,” he said, “but if you warn the public that Trump will destroy the rule of law—and then fail to call it out when it starts happening—you lose all credibility.”

Murphy made it clear that political fallout is not his concern. “I don’t wake up thinking about the electoral consequences of speaking the truth,” he said bluntly. “The truth is: this president is trying to wreck our country. We are watching the largest transfer of wealth from the middle class to the rich in our nation’s history, and it’s happening right under our noses.”

He concluded by claiming that Trump’s support is “collapsing by the day,” though he offered no specific polling data to back that assertion.
