In this quote, Elizabeth Warren is strongly criticizing Steven Mnuchin’s nomination as Treasury Secretary. Some key points:

  • She says Mnuchin’s selection should “send shivers down the spine” of Americans hurt by the financial crisis, as he worked for a bank involved in foreclosures.
  • Warren argues this shows Trump has no plans to “drain the swamp” and reform Washington as he claimed, but rather wants to “run Washington to benefit himself and his rich buddies.”
  • By appointing Mnuchin, who profited from the crisis, she feels Trump is not representing average Americans but wealthy elites.
  • Overall, the quote paints Mnuchin as the wrong choice and a sign that Trump plans to look out for the rich, not fix corruption as he promised, in Warren’s view.
