Sen Marco Rubio: The government doesn't care about working-class Americans

The senator says people in power should work for the American public, not themselves

Sen. Marco Rubio, R-Fla., said the biggest division in American politics is not Republican and Democrat, but rather a government that does not care about working-class Americans on "The Ingraham Angle."

SEN. MARCO RUBIO: Mr. President, there’s millions and millions of everyday Americans out there, and they’re good-meaning, but they’re uneducated, they’re backwards, they don’t know what’s good for them, and they’re falling into the trap of really evil people convincing them of things like real democracy, rule of law, enforcing borders, all these things are terrible, and Mr. President it’s important for us not to let these people — translation, it’s important for us not to let the American people working, everyday people and their common sense play a role in our decision-making.

Until, of course, crime goes out-of-control because their prosecutors won’t put people away.
