John Deaton on Principles & Values

I come from extreme poverty in a dangerous neighborhood

Warren: I appreciate that John Deaton grew up in a really poor family and in a really difficult circumstance. And I have some sense of what it's like to listen to your mother cry because she can't pay the bills and worried you are going to lose your housing. I have spent my whole life fighting for working families. John Deaton, he takes care of himself first. Take a look at his tax returns. Worth what? Tens of millions of dollars, maybe $100 million and he couldn't find more than $56 to give to charity across two years?

I am the grateful embodiment of the American Dream
